Carlos utilized the 'group hug' scenario effectively by using Rev, Tithe Extractor's ability to exile cards from opponent's deck and cast them using treasures.

Jason's use of Gornog, the Red Reaper to make creatures into cowards allowed for unblocked attacks but wasn't enough to keep up with the treasure generation strategy of Carlos and Spencer.

Jon M's General Kreat, the Boltbringer strategy of creating goblin tokens and dealing damage proved to be less effective in this match up against the dominant treasure-generation strategy.
