In a high stakes match, featuring the talents of Joshua Moore from We Came as Romans, the gameplay was intense and filled with spectacular plays.

Matt's Orvar deck demonstrated an impressive infinite mana combo to secure the first game, using Paragr Drake, Leap, and Aether Channeler to fuel his strategy.
