It's finally here. We've come a long way from the top 64 to this moment, when the final two commanders will face each other to determine the best.

In case you missed the announcement article explaining what this all is, and the entire tournament, head here to get the lowdown. TL;DR, we're doing a bracket system tournament, but instead of college basketball teams, we're battling the top 64 new commanders from the last five years.

And you decide the winner by voting.

Before we get to the championship match, let's look at who won the Final Four matchups to get here.

The big surprise of the tournament, the 12-seed Cinderalla story from New Capenna Henzie crushed another opponent. But will he be able to continue his blitz in the championship?

The eagles were just a smidge too late to save Frodo and Sam from the Elder Demon Valgavoth. But who could have predicted they would've made it this far?

Here's the full bracket going into the championship.
