Summary

The game began with each player setting up their board states and digging into their strategies. The Breya player focused on generating a multitude of artifacts and manipulating them to control the game state. Meanwhile, the Lord Windgrace player was building a formidable landfall engine, and Nethroi started to fill the graveyard with zero-power creatures to maximize Nethroi's mutate ability. Starscream, on the other hand, was playing a control game, trying to manipulate the monarch mechanic to their advantage. There were several back-and-forths, with each player trying to disrupt the others' strategies while advancing their own. Ultimately, the game was decided by a powerful combo from the Nethroi player, who was able to reanimate a lethal board state by mutating Nethroi and bringing back multiple creatures from the graveyard.
