Another key moment involved the use of Ukkima and Cazur to generate infinite mana and repeatedly trigger devastating effects, putting pressure on all opponents. Francisco's deck leveraged the synergy between Francisco, Fowl Marauder, Agadeem's Awakening, and Walking Ballista to establish a combo that incrementally removed opponents' life totals by repeatedly pinging with counters. Kenrith's deck employed various infinite mana outlets and tutoring effects to assemble combos and maintain board presence. Throughout the game, players carefully navigated interactions with Blood Moon effects, mana restrictions, and counterspells, culminating in explosive combos that rapidly closed the game. The game ended with the player using a loop involving Squee, the Immortal and infinite mana to exile nearly all opponents' decks and win decisively.
