Gameplay Summary

The game started with all four players setting up their board states and ramping mana, with Urza focusing on artifact combos and control, Xander developing a mill strategy, Omnath ramping aggressively with big mana plays, and Baeloth combining Noble Heritage to create tokens and buffs.

Early interactions included counterspells and artifact synergies, with Xander using Archivist of Oghma to draw cards when opponents searched their libraries, and Urza assembling equipment and artifact creatures to gain incremental advantages.

Blood Moon was played to disrupt mana bases, particularly targeting Omnath’s green-heavy ramp. A pivotal moment came when Xander copied Sir Conrad to create token creatures and triggered a mass mill effect, dealing damage to opponents and advancing his mill plan.

Urza maintained pressure with equipment and artifact recursion, while Omnath used big creatures and mana acceleration.

Baeloth contributed with token creation and buffs from Noble Heritage, allowing him to apply steady pressure and protect his creatures.

The game revolved around managing threats, countering key spells, and leveraging synergies, with Xander’s mill and Urza’s artifact combos standing out as main win conditions alongside Omnath’s big mana plays.
