Summary

The game started with a fairly balanced early setup, with players developing their mana bases and preparing their strategies. Prosper, Tome-Bound focused on his exile and treasure generation engine, leveraging the ability to play cards from exile to ramp and gain advantage. Meanwhile, the custom-built Fynn, the Fangbearer, introduced a unique death touch and poison counter theme, applying pressure through incremental damage and counters, though balanced to be less oppressive. Blanca (a custom Street Fighter-themed commander), thrived on casting multiple spells to grow and deal damage via its electric fire ability, incentivizing spell-heavy turns to trigger multiple attack buffs and direct damage. Zedruu the Greathearted aimed for a political and control-oriented approach by gifting opponents permanents to draw cards and gain life, creating a slow but steady advantage through resource accumulation.
