Summary

The game started with all players setting up their mana bases and early ramp, with each deck aiming to establish their engine pieces quickly. Joseph and Eric were both piloting Rograkh-Thrasios decks focusing on efficient mana generation and interaction, while Jonah and Jason played Tymna-Kraum and Tymna-Thrasios decks, respectively, leveraging draw engines and value creatures. Early turns saw players developing mana, ramping with cards like Birds of Paradise, Soul Ring, and fetchlands, and casting key pieces such as Noble Hierarch and Cloud of Faeries. As the game progressed, Jason executed a powerful mana and draw engine combo involving activation of Thrasios and repeated use of Guy's Cradle and Deserted Temple to generate vast amounts of mana and draw multiple cards. He then combined Eldritch Evolution and Breeze Caller to bounce lands and untap mana sources, further fueling his combo. By creating numerous insect tokens with Spring-Heart and using those tokens to generate massive green mana, Jason amassed a huge mana pool. Ultimately, he cast Finale of Devastation for a massive X, swinging for lethal damage and ending the game decisively before opponents could react.
