Summary

The game saw an intense level of competition among the four players, with Seb playing Sythis, Harvest's Hand, maximizing value from a multitude of enchantments, while the other players battled to maintain control. Seb began the game with a decent amount of board presence, but Max playing Sauron managed to clear the board with a well-timed 'Languish'. As the game progressed, Seb's Sythis deck started to gain a significant advantage with a series of enchantments, drawing cards and gaining life. Despite a massive swing from the Magus Lucea Kane deck, controlled by the channel's host, the Sythis deck's life gain and card draw engine proved too strong. In the final turns, Felix, piloting Sméagol, attempted a 'Rise of the Dark Realms', stealing all creatures from all graveyards, but it wasn't enough. Seb was able to close the game by animating their enchantments with a 'Starfield of Nyx' and using the 'Aetherflux Reservoir' to eliminate the remaining opponents.
