Gameplay Summary

In this intense game of Commander, Gaby Spartz, Kenji Egashira, Jimmy, and Josh faced off with their respective decks.

The game started off with Kenji quickly establishing a significant board presence, including a turn two Oblivion Stone.

This put the other players on the defensive, unable to commit high-value cards to the board for fear of a board wipe.

Jimmy tried to maneuver around this by playing his commander, Animar, equipped with Swiftfoot boots.

However, Kenji's Gisela proved to be a potent offensive force, dealing double damage and accelerating the pace of the game.

Despite the early tension and strategic plays, the game's outcome was still in the balance.
