Summary

The game began with the players discussing their commanders and deck strategies, with a particular focus on the unusual choice of Neera, Wild Mage for a spellslinger deck, and the aggressive strategy of the Baba Lysaga, Night Witch deck. As play began, the early game saw a lot of setup, with players ramping up and using card draw mechanics to build their board presence. The game started to ramp up when Baba Lysaga hit the field, with its powerful sacrifice mechanic causing tension among the other players. Tuvasa, however, was also building up its enchantress strategy, drawing a lot of cards and setting up for a massive Voltron strategy. A key turning point in the game was the casting of Rites of Flourishing, which provided all players with additional card draw and the ability to play an additional land each turn. This dramatically accelerated the game, pushing players towards their win conditions more quickly.
