Summary

The game started with all four players setting up their mana bases and early plays, with particular focus on generating treasure tokens and establishing board presence. The early turns were highlighted by key plays involving Dockside Extortionist, which became a central threat, drawing significant removal and attention from all players. Jeska's midrange deck utilized its counters and utility to maintain pressure, while Etali's Food Chain deck aimed to assemble combo pieces to exile opponents' libraries through repeated Etali triggers. Muldrotha focused on control elements and value through graveyard recursion, leveraging powerful cards like V's Oracle for card draw and control. Najeela tried to push aggressive damage and combo opportunities but was met with significant disruption. A pivotal moment was the repeated use of Fantasmal Image copying Dockside Extortionist, amplifying the treasure generation and forcing opponents to respond aggressively. Jeska’s removal attempts, while impactful, missed the critical target of Dockside, allowing it to remain a recurring menace. This treasure flood accelerated combo potential, especially for Etali, who was closing in on infinite mana setups to exile libraries. The match featured tight interactions around mana crypt rolls, combat phases, and key tutor plays, with players carefully sequencing spells to maximize efficiency and disruption. The game remained dynamic with multiple players threatening lethal combos, but the constant pressure from treasures and value engines made every turn crucial in the race to execute their win conditions.
