Summary

The game featured four players each piloting unique decks led by commanders from the Modern Horizons 2 set: Chatterfang, Squirrel General; Titania, Protector of Argoth; Ragavan, Nimble Pilferer; and Yusri, Fortune's Flame. Early turns saw players developing their boards and generating value through creature tokens, ramp, and aggressive plays. Chatterfang's deck focused on creating a wide board of squirrels, leveraging token synergies to pressure opponents. Titania established landfall triggers and exploited graveyard recursion to amass a threatening board presence. Ragavan applied early pressure with fast, evasive threats and card advantage from its damage-dealing abilities. Meanwhile, Yusri took a control-combo approach, using spells to manage threats and build up a powerful late-game finish. Key turning points included several board wipes that reset the tempo and a critical combo or synergy from one player that swung the momentum. The game culminated in a decisive play involving token swarms and land recursion, typical of Chatterfang and Titania strategies, leading to a victory through overwhelming board presence.
