Summary

The gameplay kicks off with the players each piloting one of the new Duskmourn preconstructed decks. The early game is defined by land placements and ramping, setting up the board for future plays. Aminatou, Veil Piercer player takes an interesting approach by aiming to exploit the commander's Miracle mechanic to gain advantage. However, the game progresses with not much action yet as the commanders start to hit the board, with Uren, Monstrosity and Valgavoth, Harrower of Souls making an appearance.
