Summary

The game started with each team setting up their board with ramp spells and signets. The villain team, piloting Rendmaw, Creaking Nest and Valgavoth, Harrower of Souls, started off with strong mana base and showing hints of a creature-based strategy with the use of Rendmaw, Creaking Nest. The heroes team, led by Bello, Bard of the Brambles and Zinnia, Valley's Voice, also set up their board for a potential creature-heavy game. As the game proceeded, there was a hint of a past game where the villains team had dominated. The villains team played a spiteful visions card, which forced their opponents to take damage. This could be a turning point in the game where the villains team starts to gain the upper hand.
