Summary
The commander game was an intense one with swings in control and unexpected tactical maneuvers. Initially, the game saw a fair amount of ramping and setup, with commanders hitting the board early. Sam, piloting Nadu, Winged Wisdom, was the first to gain significant momentum, leveraging the card draw ability of Nadu and multiple landfall triggers to amass a substantial card advantage. However, Tom, commanding Azlask, the Swelling Scourge, turned the tables with a massive attack forcing Sam to sacrifice a significant portion of his board. The game reached its climax when Extra, playing Omo, Queen of Vesuva, launched a counter-offensive, eliminating Sam and drawing a massive amount of cards. Despite valiant efforts from John and Tom, Extra managed to maintain control of the board and secure the win.
