Glarb vs Ob Nixilis vs Rograkh/Silas vs Tymna/Kraum | CEDH Gameplay

Deck Strategies

• 

  Glarb, Calamity's Augur

  This is a Doomsday deck that attempts to assemble a perfect five-card deck by casting its namesake card. It then uses its Commander to crack the pile and win with Thassa's Oracle.

• 

  Ob Nixilis, Captive Kingpin

  This is a manual storm deck seeking to gain card advantage through its Commander. It then pings opponents over and over, getting more cards and closes out the game with Commander damage as a backup.

• 

  Rograkh, Son of Rohgahh / Silas Renn, Seeker Adept

  This deck seeks to go as fast as possible with ramp rituals and tutors. It then uses Ad Nauseam or Necropotence to draw a bunch of cards to help win with Thassa's Oracle or Underworld Breach.

• 

  Tymna the Weaver / Kraum, Ludevic's Opus

  This deck swings more into mid-range play styles. It establishes a board presence, gets many draw engines online, then closes it out with Thassa's Oracle or Underworld Breach.

Summary

The game started off with each player setting up their board and ramping up. Sasha, playing Rograkh/Silas, started off with a commanding lead, casting both commanders and a Wishclaw Talisman. As the game progressed, Ryan, piloting Ob Nixilis, steadily increased his board presence with a combination of card draw and pinging. The turning point came when Ryan casted Agatha's Soul Cauldron followed by Walking Ballista, presenting a loop that allowed him to ping his opponents indefinitely, leading to his victory.
