Gameplay Summary

The game began with players setting up their mana bases and early board presence, with Saheeli the Sun's Brilliance focusing on artifact synergy and card draw, Kaervek the Merciless punishing opponents for casting spells, Etali, Primal Conqueror aiming to copy Etali triggers and leverage opponent resources, and Brudiclad, Telchor Engineer generating and enhancing tokens.

Early plays included ramp and card draw engines such as Stormfist Crusader, Thermo-Alchemist, and Spiteful Visions, which introduced a life-draw tradeoff dynamic.

Ragavan's repeated dash and treasure creation provided additional mana acceleration and card advantage for Etali's player, while artifact synergies from Saheeli's deck allowed for steady board development.
