Deck Strategies

  • Heliod, Sun-Crowned

    The Heliod deck aims to establish an infinite combo with Walking Ballista. Heliod's ability gives the Ballista lifelink and each time the Ballista deals damage, it gains a +1/+1 counter, allowing it to deal infinite damage.

  • Selvala, Heart of the Wilds

    Selvala, Heart of the Wilds

    The Selvala deck aims to generate large amounts of mana and use it to flood the board with powerful creatures. A key combo involves Woodland Bellower and Hyrax Tower Scout for infinite mana.

  • K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth

    K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth

    The K'rrik deck aims to leverage life as a resource for casting powerful black spells. It also utilizes powerful tutors to find key combo pieces.

  • Godo, Bandit Warlord

    Godo, Bandit Warlord

    The Godo deck aims to equip Godo with powerful equipment to create a formidable threat. It focuses on ramping up mana to consistently cast and equip Godo.

Summary

The game kicked off with the players bringing out their commanders: Heliod, Sun-Crowned, Selvala, Heart of the Wilds, K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth, and Godo, Bandit Warlord. The game progressed quickly with players casting ramp cards like Mana Crypt, Mox Amber, and Demonic Tutor. The Heliod player managed to assert dominance early by casting Walking Ballista and giving it lifelink, creating an infinite damage combo that ended the game prematurely. In a second game, the Selvala player attempted to establish dominance with the powerful Woodland Bellower and Hyrax Tower Scout combo, but was interrupted by a well-timed Solitude from the Heliod player.
