Summary
The game started with all players setting up their boards, with Cody focusing on sliver synergy, Kaden on planeswalker abilities, Ethan on ramping and casting massive spells, and Chandler on recurring powerful enchantments. A crucial turning point occurred when Chandler cast 'Replenish', bringing back 'Binding of the Old Gods' and 'Aura Shards', which destroyed Ethan's 'Forsaken Monument' and 'Might Stone' and 'Weak Stone'. Cody cast 'Swords to Plowshares' targeting Ethan's 'Void Winner', triggering a cascade of events involving 'Arasta' and 'Aura Shards' that resulted in multiple creatures and artifacts being destroyed. A game-changing moment came when Kaden managed to go infinite with 'Chandra' and 'Teferi' using 'The Chain Veil', but was disrupted by Cody's 'Necrotic Sliver'.
