Summary

The game began with a typical ramp and setup phase, where players developed their mana bases and deployed early threats. A notable early board presence was the player with the Queen's presence, a hasty 3/3 creature with death touch that also generates 1/1 assassin tokens at upkeep if the player is not the monarch. This set the tone for aggressive play and board control. Another player used a spell-cost reduction mechanic based on lands in the graveyard to efficiently deploy threats, while others focused on card draw and graveyard interactions through cards like Perpetual Timepiece and cunning enchantments that enabled them to cast exiled cards or interact with opponents' libraries.
