Summary

The game began with players developing their mana bases and establishing board presence with key creatures and ramp spells. Wolverine quickly started to stack buffs and utilize his damage-doubling ability, setting up for explosive combat phases. Black Panther focused on accumulating counters on lands and creatures to draw cards, gain life, and animate lands, creating a resilient and growing board state. Captain America worked toward assembling and equipping powerful equipment to deal distributed damage, while Storm aimed to leverage storm count mechanics for a big spell payoff, including casting multiple spells for free with her secondary commander, Sun Forer. Key turning points included Wolverine using fight spells to remove early threats and grow stronger, Black Panther's incremental advantage through vibranium counters and land animation, and Captain America's gradual equipment synergy starting to threaten opponents. Meanwhile, Storm's setup with suspending Rousing Refrain promised a significant mana ramp and card advantage in upcoming turns. The game was shaping toward a multi-pronged approach with Wolverine pushing aggressive damage, Black Panther controlling the board with incremental value and life gain, Captain America swinging with equipment-enhanced attacks, and Storm preparing a storm-based combo or value engine. The interactions between equipment, counters, and combat damage doubling created dynamic shifts in tempo and board control throughout the match.
