Silver earned an invite to the Strixhaven Championship and $1,500 by winning the 277-person event by winning eleven straight matches after losing the second round of Swiss. Silver entered the elimination rounds as the No. 8 seed and had to defeat Kosuke Nakamoto on Dimir Control (Yorion) in the wildcard round to move onto the quarterfinals. From there, Silver took down Kazune Kosaka on Jeskai Cycling, setting up two matches against players on Naya Adventures (Jegantha). Silver beat Myles Housman 2-0 in the semis and Camilo Mora 2-1 in the finals.


The Top 12 was made up of six Adventures decks of varying styles, two copies of Jeskai Cycling, and single copies of Dimir Control (Yorion), Sultai Control (Yorion), Dimir Rogues (Lurrus), and Mono-Red Aggro❄. The two most played decks in the event (Temur Adventures, notably without Obosh, and Mono-Red Aggro❄) only put one copy in the elimination rounds. Mono-White Aggro❄, the only deck to win multiple SCG Tour events this season, only had ten pilots this weekend with zero copies making the Top 12. The metagame breakdown for decks with more than one pilot in the event can be seen below.
