Summary
The game began with each player setting up their board and mana base, gradually developing their strategies around their commanders' unique mechanics. Early plays included mana ramp and utility creatures, such as Solemn Simulacrum and Champion of Wits, to smooth out draws and board presence. Far Fortune started by building speed counters to increase damage output, while Caradora was focused on assembling mounts and vehicles to benefit from plus one counters. Temmet aimed to swarm the board with zombies powered by card draw and discard, and Saheeli focused on energy generation and artifact synergies. A key moment came when Far Fortune's engine mechanic began to accelerate, increasing the threat level with faster and more powerful attacks. Caradora’s ability to double plus one counters on creatures and vehicles synergized well with her mounts and vehicles, enhancing board presence and combat potential. Temmet steadily grew a zombie army boosted by card draw, while Saheeli manipulated energy and artifacts to disrupt opponents and create value. The game saw multiple attacks and board developments, with players carefully managing resources to maximize their commander’s strengths. The interplay of speed and counters emerged as a central theme, with Far Fortune pushing aggressive damage and Caradora leveraging mounts for sustained power. The outcome hinged on maintaining board control while accelerating damage through counters and speed mechanics.
