Summary

The game kicked off with everyone settling their board states and ramping up their resources. Early on, Chandler, piloting Magda, Brazen Outlaw, assembled an impressive board state with several artifacts, including a Smuggler's Copter and a Paradise Mantle. This allowed Chandler to generate a treasure every turn using Magda's ability. Meanwhile, Logan, running K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth, was able to get a significant advantage with Necropotence, gaining a full hand at the cost of his life total. However, he managed to stabilise his life total by casting Gray Merchant of Asphodel, dealing a considerable amount of damage to everyone and gaining a significant amount of life. Cameron, running a Tymna/Ikra deck, was also able to establish board presence with cards like Earthcraft and Ikra Shidiki, The Usurper. Despite the intense game, the winner was not determined within the available transcript.
