Deck & Commander Strategies
Rograkh, Son of Rohgahh / Thrasios, Triton Hero
A combo-oriented deck focusing on mana acceleration, efficient ramp, and spell-based interaction. It uses artifact mana and powerful creatures to assemble a game-winning combo, leveraging Thrasios for card advantage and Rograkh for aggressive pressure.
Lumra, Bellow of the Woods
A graveyard-centric deck that mills opponents and recurs creatures to maintain board presence. Lumra enables continuous threats through EQB triggers and leverages graveyard recursion to overwhelm opponents over time.
Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy
A ramp and value deck that accelerates mana production through creatures and artifacts, enabling large plays and combos. Kinnan’s ability to generate extra mana from noncreature mana sources fuels explosive turns and powerful spells.
Tymna the Weaver
A control and value-oriented deck focusing on incremental advantage through combat damage and card draw. Tymna uses evasive creatures to chip away at opponents while maintaining interaction to disrupt threats.

Gameplay Summary
The game began with each player setting up their mana bases and early board states, with Rograkh/Thrasios leveraging land drops and mana acceleration, Lumra deploying disruptive milling and graveyard recursion, Kinnan focusing on ramp and efficient creature development, and Tymna the Weaver working through card advantage and incremental value.
Early plays included Cavern of Souls naming Elemental to protect key creatures and strategic use of mana rocks like Chrome Mox for acceleration.
Lumra's ability to mill and bring back creatures created a persistent threat, while Kinnan's ramp and card draw began to accelerate his game plan. As the midgame unfolded, important interactions such as casting enduring vitality and fighting over critical spells shaped the board.
Notably, Lumra's EQB triggered milling and graveyard recursion put pressure on opponents, forcing them to respond carefully.
The players negotiated over key plays like Seedborn Muse, with some opting to let vital enchantments resolve to avoid wasting removal or counters.
Combat phases became pivotal, with attacks and blocks carefully considered to maximize damage and minimize losses.
