Gameplay Summary

The game began with players establishing their board states through typical early ramp and utility plays.

Araumi of the Dead Tide focused on filling the graveyard with cards like Stitcher Supplier and Thousand-Year Elixir, preparing for a powerful graveyard recursion strategy.

Rin and Seri emphasized tribal synergy by creating tokens and leveraging spells that target their creatures for incremental value.

Yorion, Sky Nomad ramped and blinked permanents to generate card advantage and tempo, while Feather, the Redeemed aimed to gain incremental advantage through combat damage and instant/sorcery interactions. A pivotal moment occurred when Araumi attempted to disrupt Feather with Shriekmaw’s evoke, targeting Feather for removal.

Feather cleverly responded with Shelter and Deflecting Swat to save itself and redirect the removal, showcasing the deck’s resilience and interaction.

Yorion’s player used a Mystical Tutor to find Farewell, a powerful mass exile spell, intending to clear the board of problematic enchantments and creatures.

However, the group’s political tension rose as players negotiated and targeted each other, with Rin and Seri’s aggressive token attacks and Feather's combat damage pushing players’ life totals down. Throughout the game, graveyard recursion, token production, and blink effects created a dynamic battlefield with shifting threats.

Araumi’s graveyard-centric strategy threatened to overwhelm opponents if allowed to develop, while Yorion’s flicker and board wipes aimed to reset the board.

Feather’s reactive and protective spells kept the deck in play despite removal attempts.

The game balanced on timing and interaction, with players trying to outmaneuver each other through removal, protection, and combat damage to secure victory.
