Summary

The game started off with a strong competitive pace with all four commanders: Karador, Kaalia, Kenrith, and Tivit. The game saw many high-impact plays and exchanges between the players. Notably, Mia with Kaalia of the Vast brought significant aerial pressure, with attacks in the air proving crucial. Beezy's Karador deck seemed to struggle and was often the target of attacks. However, the game reached a critical point when a casting of Flusterstorm managed to disrupt a key play attempt. The game eventually ended as the players succumbed to the growing threats on the board.
