Summary

The game featured a thematic four-way battle between the angel sisters of Innistrad, each represented by a unique commander with distinct strategies. Gisela focused on leveraging her damage doubling and damage reduction abilities to control combat and punish opponents aggressively. Sigarda aimed to build a resilient voltron-style angel with hexproof and flying, maximizing protection and making her commander difficult to remove. Bruno operated as an enchantress-style deck, utilizing her ability to attach multiple auras and bring them back from graveyards to create powerful, one-turn kill threats. Liesa took a life-gain approach with a twist, simultaneously gaining life and draining opponents, aiming for a balanced, incremental advantage rather than outright aggression. Early turns involved players jockeying for board presence, with Bruno quickly ramping auras and attempting to assemble lethal combos, while Gisela moderated damage output between players to prevent any one opponent from snowballing. Sigarda's hexproof presence demanded careful respect from others, and Liesa’s life manipulation added a layer of attrition to the game.
