Works in tandem with Kodama to copy creatures and manipulate the board state, enhancing value through recursion and cloning.
Ezuri, Renegade Leader
A mono-green elf tribal deck that accelerates mana and builds a wide board to overwhelm opponents, aiming for a quick and broad creature-based win.

Gameplay Summary
The game features a highly competitive cEDH multiplayer match with five different commanders, each representing diverse strategies.
Early on, Curie, Emergent Intelligence executes a powerful turn one wheel effect with Time Twister, disrupting all players' hands significantly, which sets the tone for the game by forcing everyone to operate with new, often suboptimal hands.
This immediately stifles aggressive early win attempts from other players, putting Curie in a strong position to leverage its card draw capabilities.
Throughout the game, Curie repeatedly uses relics roar synergized with its commander ability to draw multiple cards, maintaining a steady flow of resources while opponents struggle to stabilize.
Borborygmos and Fblthp utilize artifact ramp and discard synergies, while Kodama of the East Tree paired with Sakashima of a Thousand Faces plays a land recursion and copy strategy to generate value.
Ezuri, Renegade Leader, plays a mono-green elf deck focusing on mana acceleration and board presence but is hindered by the hand disruption from Curie.
The game revolves around resource denial and incremental advantage, with Curie's relentless card draw and disruption slowly overwhelming opponents.
The interaction of land recursion, artifact acceleration, and hand disruption form the core of gameplay, with Curie's strategy proving the most resilient and impactful as the game progresses.
