Gameplay Summary

The game began with players establishing their early boards and setting up their mana bases and card draw engines.

Nick on Yuriko applied early pressure using ninjutsu to repeatedly bounce and replay creatures, triggering multiple Yuriko damage reveals that drained opponents' life totals and disrupted their hands.

Ashani on Tivit focused on controlling the board with Drannith Magistrate and ramping with mana artifacts and Rhystic Study, aiming to assemble the Time Sieve or Thassa's Oracle combo later.

Ryan piloting Atraxa used strong card draw and mana acceleration with cards like Smothering Tithe and Mystic Remora to build resources for his Food Chain or Thassa's Oracle combo.

Cruz with Dargo/Thrasios prioritized synergy between infinite mana generation and card draw to dig for combo pieces.
