Gameplay Summary

The game began with Queen Kayla bin-Kroog leading a Boros discard-stax strategy, aiming to disrupt opponents' hands and generate incremental value through discard triggers, ultimately looking to win via Kiki-Jiki or combat damage.

Early on, she established board presence and mana acceleration, using discard and stax elements like Deafening Silence to hinder opponents' interactions.

The other players featured a variety of strategies: Rograkh and Thrasios combining ramp and toolbox elements; Anje Falkenrath cycling and Madness synergies to quickly filter cards and generate pressure; and Krark and Silas Renn focusing on polymorph combos and artifact synergy to build explosive plays.

Throughout the midgame, Queen Kayla executed a key discard sequence that allowed her to draw a fresh hand and gain advantage, while also deploying powerful hate cards like Rest in Peace and Grand Abolisher, although some were sacrificed for card filtering.

A significant turning point occurred when Anje's Madness engine activated aggressively, threatening to overwhelm the table with recurring creatures and discard pressure.

However, Queen Kayla’s ability to generate treasure tokens via Dockside Extortionist and cast disruptive creatures like Elsha of the Infinite helped stabilize the board.

The game featured notable interactions such as multiple players trying to search their libraries but being thwarted by discard and stax effects, as well as the use of mass card draw and tutor effects to assemble combos.

The match remained tense with each player trying to balance disruption, ramp, and combo potential, with Queen Kayla leveraging her discard-stax package and incremental value engine to maintain control and set up a winning board state.
