Summary

The game began with players developing their board states through ramp and early creatures, setting up their respective strategies. Tanazir Quandrix focused on generating +1/+1 counters and overwhelming the board with creatures, leveraging cards like Rishkar, Peema Renegade and Tosk Bearer of Secrets to draw cards and build board presence. Shadrix Silverquill pursued a graveyard and creature token strategy, using cards like Ranger-Captain of Eos to tutor and cast impactful creatures like Stitcher's Supplier, while also wielding disruption such as Opposition Agent. Beledros Witherbloom utilized a midrange approach balancing graveyard interactions and creature-based value, playing key cards like Veto and Blood Artist to control the board and gain advantage. Galazeth Prismari aimed for artifact ramp and spell-slinging, casting Galazeth Prismari early to generate treasures and ramp into more powerful spells like Fact or Fiction to dig for resources.
