Summary
The game started with each player setting up their board states. Mike, with Magda, was aiming for treasure generation and tutorable win conditions, while Noah, playing Tivit, was focused on generating clues and treasures. Griffin, piloting Sisay, sought to leverage his commander's ability to tutor up combo pieces or silver bullets, and Hidden's Stella Lee deck contained multiple one-card combos. The early game saw a lot of back-and-forth, but the turning point came when Noah overloaded a Cyclonic Rift, causing all players to return their permanents to their hands. From there, Noah took control of the game, using Tivit to generate significant value and control the board. Despite attempts from other players to rebuild, Noah maintained dominance and ultimately took the victory.
