Summary

The game unfolded with a fairly steady start as players built their boards, with Jinnie Fay's deck attempting to leverage the value from tokens. The Yasharn player quickly ramped and disrupted the board with a Collector Oof, limiting artifact abilities. This was followed by a Palace Jailer, taking out Jinnie Fay and gaining the Monarch mechanic, disrupting Jinnie Fay's strategy. The game was further disrupted when Kalamax cast a Blasphemous Act, clearing the board. Despite this, the Yasharn player managed to rebuild their board quickly with Bane of Progress and Yasharn itself. The game ended before any player could establish a solid lead or enact their win condition.
