Summary

In this intense match, Seth pilots a Shelob deck aiming to turn all creatures into food, Richard brings a Tom Bombadil deck, Crim is on a Grixis Sauron deck intending to create a massive orcish army, and Tomer runs a Four Color Aragorn Voltron deck. The game starts off with Seth creating a potential roadblock by putting a menacing Atrasta on the board. On the other side, Crim's amass strategy starts taking shape with the march of the black gate and the Ozolith. The presence of the Ozolith on the field raises concern among the players due to its ability to store up counters. Tomer, meanwhile, plays a charm deck and manages to draw a card by playing an enchantress into Weaver of Harmony. The game sees a lot of back and forth as players try to build their decks while dealing with threats on the board.
