Summary

The game begins with the players ramping up their resources in the early turns, setting up their initial strategies. Jimmy's Breya, Etherium Shaper is the first commander to make an appearance, supported by a Trading Post to generate additional value. Josh's Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons follows soon after, with Phyrexian Arena providing card advantage. Meanwhile, Mitch is building up his mana base with the intention of making use of Kenrith, the Returned King's abilities for politics, while Ladee Danger's Ezuri, Claw of Progress benefits from an early Maraleaf Pixie. As the game progresses, there are a few skirmishes and targeted attacks, but no major shifts in board state or power balance are evident from the transcript.
