Summary
The game began with players establishing their boards with mana rocks, sagas, and early creatures. Narci set up an Abzan sagas deck focused on incremental life drain and value from recurring sagas, while Greasefang aimed to leverage his graveyard as a junkyard to bring back vehicles and swing with them. Breya focused on artifact synergy, casting artifacts like Fabricate and generating constructs with Simic Synthesis, aiming to take multiple extra turns and control the board with artifact combos. Anikthea played a black-white deck with enchantment and creature disruption, deploying creatures like Ka Ghost Assassin to interact with Greasefang’s graveyard and vehicles. Key turning points involved Greasefang repeatedly recasting the Reaver Titan through his graveyard synergy, threatening explosive board presence. Narci’s Elis Nightmare saga created graveyard disruption and hand disruption, targeting key cards from opponents. Breya’s use of artifacts and extra turn spells kept her tempo high and enabled her to generate additional resources. The interactions between Greasefang’s graveyard recursion and Anikthea’s removal and Ka’s ability to exile and reuse creatures created dynamic board states. The game revolved around artifact and enchantment synergies clashing, with life drain and incremental advantage from sagas adding pressure. The win condition leaned on Greasefang’s graveyard vehicle recursion and Breya’s artifact combo turns, with Anikthea and Narci trying to disrupt these plans through removal and control.
