Summary

The game featured four competitive cEDH decks led by Narset, Enlightened Master; Niv-Mizzet, Parun; Nadu, Winged Wisdom; and Atsushi, the Blazing Sky. Early turns saw players developing their mana bases and establishing board presence, with Nadu quickly assembling a Scooze Swarm combo and Narset leveraging her ability to exile the top four cards and cast spells for free.
