Summary
The game started off with Ethan's Sythis deck firmly establishing its presence on the board with card draw engines and enchantment ramp, significantly boosting Sythis' power. Despite the threatening board state, opponents were hesitant to attack due to the potential for a massive lifelink swing. Cameron's Obeka deck and Chandler's Illuna deck both managed to copy and bounce around key creatures, with Cameron cleverly copying Ethan's Smothering Tithe to take advantage of the card draw. Shelby's Marchesa deck played a key role in shaking up the board state, using Treasonous Ogre and Scourge of the Throne to put pressure on opponents. A crucial Mob Rule play threatened to swing the game in Shelby's favor, but quick thinking and cooperation from Chandler and Ethan managed to minimize the damage, ending the game in an unresolved cliffhanger.
