32 players came to battle in our $100 Multi-EDH Year End Tournament and budget didn't stop these players from having intense matches. With the versatile Kenrith, the Returned King being dominant in most of the rounds, it was a surprise that Yisan, the Wanderer Bard was still able to snatch the championship from the Returned King's clutches. Feather, the Redeemed also proved that having a Dockside Extortionist was well worth the investment as it lands behind the top 2. Evil shenanigans proved to be the bane of most decks as Tergrid, God of Fright stood on top the sacrificed and discarded permanents of its opponent. The former winner of our 1st $100 Multi-EDH, Jetmir, Nexus of Revels still came in close with its unstoppable token army.

Here are the Top 8:

1st - Kelvin Manzano (Yisan, the Wanderer Bard)
2nd - Glen Aejeong (Kenrith, the Returned King)
3rd - Rogel Branzuela Bonagua (Feather, the Redeemed)
4th - Chris Lachica (Tergrid, God of Fright)
5th - Jasper Adviento (Jetmir, Nexus of Revels)
6th - Luis Bautista (Yawgmoth, Thran Physician)
7th - Basty Sy (Lathril, Blade of the Elves)
8th - Jake Christian (Chulane, Teller of Tales)

Aside from our top contenders, there are certainly memorable plays to be had across the tables. From Pathing to Exile a Elvish Mystic to deny a First Blood point, to Chaos Warping a plant token, revealing an Arasta of the Endless Web to be able to block an attacking Tivit, Seller of Secrets, and the game-breaking Tergrid, God of Fright to a Fraying Omnipotence.

All in all, everyone had a wonderful time politicking and comboing out and finishing the pod's Completion Quests. The rounds are long especially the last ones, but the matches are hard fought and ultimately full of fun.
