Gameplay Summary

The game begins with a lively discussion and humor as players roll to decide the turn order.

Early game sees players developing their boards with key creatures, artifacts, and land ramp cards.

The first significant play of the game comes from the player piloting Ghoulcaller Gisa who, despite the threat from Torbran's rampaging ferocidon, manages to generate a significant zombie horde using Gisa's ability.

This is further amplified by the addition of Death Baron, giving his zombies deathtouch.

Meanwhile, Chulane and Sisay players are also building up their board states, with Chulane playing a key Seaborn Muse and Sisay successfully casting the powerful Torbran, Thane of Red Fell.
