Summary

The game showcased a strong performance by the Ratadrabik of Urborg deck, which is an aristocrats and reanimator themed deck. The deck was able to generate multiple tokens using Adeline, generating sac fodder for the Phyrexian Altar. This synergy between Adeline and Phyrexian Altar further allowed the deck to cast the commander, Ratadrabik of Urborg, and to create a token copy of Adeline. Dauthi Voidwalker was also a key player, providing access to Path to Exile from the opponent's exile zone to remove threats. The game faced a turning point when Niv-Mizzet, Parun decided to scoop, possibly due to falling behind in board state. The Jodah, the Unifier player posed a significant threat with the potential of generating high value through the casting of spells, particularly with the Rhystic Study on the battlefield. However, the Path to Exile from Dauthi Voidwalker managed to slow down Jodah's momentum.
