The Fast, The Furious, and The Duel Commander Super Series
The meta-game breakdown from the 32 different "Commanders" and their respective decks provided as interesting a battlefield as can be with Reanimator, Combo, Elfball, Tempo, Hexproof, Control, and fast death and slow death bringers being represented all around. One thing was clear as we reach the end of Round 6, it seems decks with fast kills of various means reigns supreme in a top-level highly charged tournament scene such as this.
And by that, nothing else would seem able to bridge the gap for win and annoyance factor alone than by throwing in huge fatties and/or swarms of creatures (tokens or not) onto the battlefield alongside huge card/time advantage plays. So yes, we are looking at you Esper, reanimated Griselbrands and Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur, Animar, Soul of Elements, The Mimeoplasm, Jenara, Asura of War, Prossh, Skyraider of Kher, Titania, Protector of Argoth, and the infamous Necrotic Ooze/Triskelion/Phyrexian Devourer Combo. We look forward to opposing your decks for the next tournaments to come.
Congratulations to all the winners!
Thanks to everyone who went and made the tournament as challenging yet as fun as we all expected!
