Summary

The game started with each player setting up their board. Teysa, played by the host, JC, started with a slow hand and had to play defensively, holding onto key cards like Skullclamp. Lathril, Blade of the Elves, had a slow start but later played a series of strong Elves, becoming a threat. Depala, Pilot Exemplar, and Ruhan of the Fomori, both developed their boards with key pieces, Sram, Senior Edificer for Ruhan and Renegade Freighter for Depala. The game was a careful dance of power, with players making strategic decisions in response to the growing threats on the board. The game ended without a clear winner due to transcript truncation.
