Summary

The game was a flurry of activity right from the beginning, with each player showcasing their deck's unique strategies and key cards. Early on, Matt's Jorn deck took advantage of snow permanents and used them to gain mana each turn, while Shelby's Tawnos deck focused on generating token copies of beasts and birds to overwhelm the board. Kobe's Svella deck aimed to flood the world with elves, while Chandler's Hugs deck utilized landfall and play from exile mechanics, playing multiple lands each turn thanks to Ramunap Excavator and getting additional card advantage from Hugs. As the game progressed, Matt's Jorn deck tried to leverage Dark Depths and Yorn, and Chandler's Hugs deck capitalized on Peros, God of the Forge and Field of the Dead. The game ended abruptly after the transcript was truncated.
