Summary

The game kicked off with each player deploying their lands and some key setup cards. Player Higher, using Atraxa, Grand Unifier, quickly turned the tides with a play of 'Saw on Half' on 'Serra Ascendant', creating two 6/6 flying lifelink creatures. This led to a significant swing in life totals, with Tyler, using Rowan, Scion of War, being the primary target.
