Gameplay Summary

The game started with all players establishing their mana bases and setting up early plays with low-cost creatures and utility lands.

Key early plays included ramping artifacts like Mox Diamond and mana dorks, as well as disruption spells such as Cursecatcher and Brain Freeze.

As the game progressed, players began executing their primary strategies: Tevesh Szat leveraged fast mana and tutors to assemble a Laboratory Maniac combo, while Rograkh and Silas built up incremental advantage through sacrifice and recursion engines.

The board state saw several sweeps and interaction spells like Flame Sweep and Deflecting Swat, slowing down aggressive developments and forcing players to adapt their plans continuously.

A pivotal moment came when Tevesh Szat resolved a Postmortem Lunge to recur Eternal Witness and Mox Diamond, enabling explosive mana and card draw sequences.
