Summary

The game kicks off with each player setting up their initial strategies. Max, playing Elmar and Hargilde, starts building up a board with elemental creatures, using them to deal damage to AR, who is playing Atraxa. AR, focusing on a blink strategy, manages to get Atraxa on the board early and starts drawing cards by blinking her. Meanwhile, the player controlling Captain America begins setting up for equipment-based combat. As the game progresses, board wipes from AR disrupt the other players' strategies, causing a shift in tempo. Despite the disruption, Captain America continues to be a threat on the board, dealing damage and manipulating equipment.
