Kalamax, the Stormsire, quickly established his presence by copying instant spells and growing stronger with +1/+1 counters, while Faldorn, Dread Wolf Herald steadily created wolf tokens through his exile and land play abilities.

Nelly Borca, Impulsive Accuser took advantage of combat damage among opponents to draw cards, adding card advantage to her game plan. Midgame, the planeswalker synergy became a focal point as Guff's +1 ability and end-step effects, along with Chandra, Legacy of Fire's damage output scaled with the number of planeswalkers controlled.

Faldorn continued creating tokens and leveraging cards exiled from the top of the library, giving him steady board presence and options.
The interaction of planeswalkers dealing damage, drawing cards, and creating creatures set the stage for a planeswalker tribal win condition, while token generation and incremental damage from wolves and wizards supported board control and attrition.
