Summary
The game was a thrilling showdown between gods, dinosaurs, and grandparents with cards from the Caverns of Ixalan set. Early in the game, Ethan's Ojer Axonil deck and Chandler's dinosaur-themed deck, led by Owen Grady and Blue, took the lead. Ethan's strategy of dealing damage and creating treasure tokens through Descent into the Abyss was potent but left him vulnerable. Chandler capitalised on this, quickly ramping up his dinosaurs to monstrous heights and eliminating Ethan. Meanwhile, Sam's Ojer Taq deck started creating a massive token army with the help of Morell Shield of Argive and Rabble Rousing. However, the game took a significant turn when Kaden's Abuelo deck wiped the board with Supreme Verdict while also gaining life and card advantage. Despite the board wipe, Chandler managed to rebuild his board with Regal Behemoth and Seedborn Muse. However, Kaden's control strategy eventually prevailed, with Stonehorn Dignitary preventing Chandler's attacks, leading to Kaden's victory.
