March Commandness - North and South Round Four

Graphic by the author

Round four of EDHREC's March Commandness Bracket Tournament begins now! In this article, we'll look at who won the matchups from round three in the North and South conferences, and then kick off the fourth round of voting.

But first, in case you missed the announcement article explaining what this all is, 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.

North Conference - Round Three Winners

Before we get into round four, let's take a look at the winners of round three.

Match One - Y'shtola, Night's BlessedY'shtola, Night's Blessed (1) vs Chatterfang, Squirrel GeneralChatterfang, Squirrel General (5)

Winner: Chatterfang (53.9%)

Chatterfang, Squirrel General

Another 1-seed falls, and it's at the hands (paws?) of a Squirrel. Chatterfang keeps reminding us that he was built to climb.

Match Two - Bello, Bard of the BramblesBello, Bard of the Brambles (6) vs The Wise MothmanThe Wise Mothman (2)

Winner: Bello (57.5%)

Bello, Bard of the Brambles

It's official: my bracket is broken. Why, Mothman? Why?!

South Conference - Round Three Winners

Match One - Hearthhull, the WorldseedHearthhull, the Worldseed (9) vs Henzie "Toolbox" TorreHenzie "Toolbox" Torre (12)

Winner: Henzie (53.1%)

Henzie "Toolbox" Torre

Henzie can not be stopped! This 12-seed Devil Rogue from Streets of New Capenna is the most surprising performer of the entire tournament, besting opponents far more popular than him.

No one saw this coming, but we're all thrilled to watch it happen.

Match Two - Teval, the Balanced ScaleTeval, the Balanced Scale (3) vs Ygra, Eater of AllYgra, Eater of All (10)

Winner: Teval (54.0%)

Teval, the Balanced Scale

Sadly, our other underdog story has come to an end at the hands of a Tarkir Dragon. Those scales were just too tough for Ygra.
