Summary
The game kicked off at a moderate pace, with each player setting up their board and trying to execute their deck strategies. A significant turning point was when Chandler cast his Old Gnawbone and started generating a significant amount of treasures tokens. This allowed him to cast a variety of creatures and spells in quick succession, drawing a lot of cards off his Guardian Project and Beast Whisperer. This gave him a formidable board presence and provided him with a steady flow of resources. He was able to protect his board with timely cast of Heroic Intervention, further solidifying his advantage. Logan made a valiant attempt to control the board with Swords to Plowshares, but Chandler's deck had too much momentum and he was able to quickly rebuild his board. The game ended with Chandler's overwhelming board state and resource advantage securing him the win.
