Deck & Commander Strategies

Najeela, the Blade-Blossom
A five-color aggressive combo deck that generates warrior tokens and leverages combat triggers to assemble combos like Dervi and Grim Haruspex for fast wins, including interactions with Fastest Oracle and Underworld Breach.

An evolution-based midrange combo deck that utilizes graveyard recursion and infinite mana combos with cards like Basilisk Collar and Oracle of Mul Daya to control the board and close out games with large threats.
Magda, Brazen Outlaw
A mono-red tribal combo deck focused on dwarf synergies and artifact interactions, capable of piecing together instant-speed wins using cards like Clock of Omens and artifact dwarves supported by treasure generation.
Vivi Ornitier
A storm combo deck that uses curiosity-style effects and Underworld Breach to generate massive card draw and incremental damage through commander triggers, aiming to storm off and win by overwhelming opponents with repeated value and damage.

Gameplay Summary

The game started with each player developing their board and setting up their respective strategies.

Early plays included casting key mana rocks like Grim Monolith and Mox Diamond, as well as deploying commanders such as Najeela, Tasigur, Magda, and Vivi Ornitier.

Najeela’s deck focused on generating warrior tokens and building a wide board presence, while Tasigur aimed to evolve into powerful threats using graveyard recursion and infinite mana combos.

Magda played a mono-red dwarf tribal combo strategy, attempting to assemble artifact synergies for instant wins, while Vivi Ornitier worked on a storm combo with Underworld Breach and curiosity effects, leveraging incremental damage and card draw to storm out.

Over the course of several turns, Vivi began a significant storm sequence involving multiple triggers from her commander, bouncing opponents’ creatures, and drawing numerous cards, gaining momentum and control over the game state.

Meanwhile, Najeela and Magda applied pressure through combat and artifact synergies, with Tasigur lurking to exploit graveyard resources.

Notably, multiple players negotiated temporary truces to avoid premature wins and maximize their setups.

The gameplay featured several critical interactions such as countering key spells, sacrificing permanents for value, and carefully timing attacks to avoid triggering opponent combos too early.

The game’s pivotal moment revolved around Vivi’s escalating storm sequence and her ability to repeatedly bounce opposing threats while accumulating counters and card advantage, positioning her for a potential combo finish.
