Summary
In the early game, players focused on setting up their boards with key cards like 'Ragavan, Nimble Pilferer', 'Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy', and 'Stella Lee, Wild Card'. Eliot, playing Winota, managed to get her out early, creating a significant threat on the board. However, Phil had a 'Plow' ready to deal with it, but Eliot saved Winota using 'Alseid of Life's Bounty'. The game continued with players trying to gain an advantage by deploying their commanders and key cards. Unfortunately, the transcript cut off before the late game could unfold.
