Summary

The game began with players establishing their mana bases and early board presence, including casting utility creatures like Esper Sentinel and ramp spells such as Mana Vault and Lion's Eye Diamond. Early turns saw players drawing and discarding cards to sculpt hands and set up for midgame plays. A key turning point occurred when Taylor cast Finale of Devastation twice with a high X value, leveraging multiple mana rituals and spells to generate overwhelming board presence and card advantage. This forced a cascade of responses, including commandeer interactions and attempts at disruption, but the Finale resolved successfully, shifting the momentum heavily in Taylor's favor. Subsequent turns showed other players trying to stabilize and build their own resources, but the Finale's impact created a significant threat that dominated the game.
