Gameplay Summary

Key turning points included Brandon's use of Praetor's Grasp to steal Cal's Dockside Extortionist, which generated a large treasure storm to fuel his own plays.

Cruz's removal of Kinnan with Deadly Rollick slowed Mike's ramp strategy, while Brandon's Demonic Consultation and Mindbreak Trap thwarted Cruz's infinite mana plans.

The final critical sequence saw Brandon use a complex interaction involving Cyclonic Rift, Pact of Negation, and Spell Pierce on his own spells to clear the board, followed by a high-storm Brain Freeze to mill his deck.

He then used Sevinne's Reclamation to flashback Thassa's Oracle from the graveyard, winning the game as Oracle’s triggered ability resolved.
