Summary

The game began with a fast start, with mana acceleration cards like Sol Ring being played early on by multiple players. Tajic, Blade of the Legion, piloted by Shivam Bhatt, focused on fielding a large number of soldier tokens to apply pressure on the opponents. The Mimeoplasm, helmed by Joey Schultz, started setting up his graveyard for reanimation plays, discarding high-cost creatures such as Nezahal, Primal Tide. Edgar Markov, led by an unnamed player, quickly deployed vampire creatures to take advantage of Edgar's Eminence ability. Galea, Kindler of Hope, also had a swift start, aiming to equip Galea with Winged Boots and play cards off the top of her library. The table tension escalated as players started deploying more powerful cards and threats, such as Hero of Bladehold, which generated additional soldier tokens with each attack.
