Summary

The game started with players setting up their boards and ramping their manabases. Early game threats were kept in check by tactical removals and board wipes, particularly Kevin's timely casting of Urza's Ruinous Blast, which wiped away Mika's scary board. Mika's commander, Jared Carthalion, was a consistent presence throughout the game. A notable turning point was Maximus's casting of Dire Fleet Ravager, which significantly lowered everyone's life total. Kevin managed to stay in the game by gaining 13 life through a well-timed attack with Alesha, who had been equipped with Blackblade Reforged and given vigilance, lifelink, and indestructible by Dihada. Mika's Luna and Fusion Elemental, both buffed up by Jared, posed a significant threat. A final turning point was Kevin's casting of Kaya's Wrath as a 'do-it-yourself' plague wind, wiping everyone else's board and allowing him to take control of the game.
