Deck Strategies

• 

  Raffine, Scheming Seer

  This deck aims to control the game with a reanimator subtheme, using Raffine's connive ability to discard reanimator targets while adding counters to beef up creatures and pressure opponents.

• 

  Marneus Calgar

  This mid-range deck aims to combo out quickly or prolong the game to gain value using Marneus' draw and activated abilities. It also has the capability to apply pressure through creature beats.

• 

  Tivit, Seller of Secrets

  This deck has a high density of win cons with a one-card combo in Tivit, making it a constant threat while also functioning as a hard to interact with value engine.

• 

  Rograkh, Son of Rohgahh and Tevesh Szat, Doom of Fools

  This Rakdos turbo strategy uses Rograkh to enable fast mana and leverages Tevesh as a card advantage engine.

Summary

The game started off with an intense struggle over card advantage, with players trying not to feed the Mystic Remora and Smothering Tithe on the board. This led to a slow start for most players, but Raffine, Scheming Seer, managed to apply pressure with its connive ability and beefed-up creatures. A key turning point was when Gator, piloting Rograkh and Tevesh, managed to generate a large amount of mana with Dockside Extortionist and ramped out Tevesh for card advantage. Despite the powerful board states, the game ended abruptly when Islane, piloting Tivit, Seller of Secrets, leveraged his commander's one-card combo to secure the victory.
