Summary
The game started off with a significant early tempo set by Nate (Ob Nixilis), who rapidly established a formidable board of mana rocks. Despite this, the game was kept in check by a Trinisphere played by Cameron (Queen Kayla). This slowed the pace of the game and forced the players to strategize around the Trinisphere. A Toxic Deluge from Anna (Myra) wiped the board and reset the game state, which was then followed by a Rule Of Law from Cameron, further controlling the pace of the game. Unfortunately, the game was cut off before a clear winner could be determined.
