Summary
The game started off with the players establishing their boards, ramping their mana and setting up their respective strategies. Jason, playing Ghalta, Stampede Tyrant, focused on ramping up his mana and dropping big creatures on the board. Mike, playing Indominus Rex, Alpha, used key pieces to play a 'keyword soup' strategy, giving his commander a wide range of abilities. Matt, wielding Ojer Axonil, Deepest Might, aimed to burn his opponents to death with non-combat damage. Brent, piloting Huatli, Poet of Unity, focused on dinosaur tribal synergy and aggressive attacks. The tide turned dramatically when the player with Ghalta, Stampede Tyrant, managed to cast Natural Order, fetching Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger, leading to a significant advantage. However, the Indominus Rex player answered with a Plague Wind, wiping out all creatures he didn't control, and swung the momentum of the game in his favor.
