Summary

The game kicked off with players deploying their early game resources, with everyone intensely focused on establishing their board presence. As the game progressed, a number of key interactions took place that significantly impacted the game's trajectory. Humility by Hidden (Shorikai) managed to alter the battlefield state significantly, reducing threats and putting a damper on creature-based strategies. Caitlin (Disa) attempted to remove Humility with an Assassin's Trophy, but was thwarted by a Flusterstorm. Sam (Tasigur) made a deal with Caitlin to tutor something to remove Humility, but the plan failed due to counter magic. A Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale by Hidden further controlled the board, taxing players to keep their creatures alive. Late in the game, a key Time Twister by Hidden refilled everyone's hands, shaking things up. Despite numerous attempts by other players to break the control, Hidden managed to maintain a firm grip on the game state.
