Summary

The game started with players setting up their boards, primarily through land drops and a few artifacts. Jan, playing Anje Falkenrath, tried to establish an early presence but an attempt to cast Anje was counteracted by Jim’s blue Elemental blast. Eliot, playing Grolnok, the Omnivore, displayed a risky play style by choosing to take 8 life from his Sylvan Library, indicating a high-cost strategy in the works. Alex playing Godo, Bandit Warlord, and Jim playing Tivit, Seller of Secrets, seemed to be playing conservatively at this stage, focusing on land development and cautiously holding back. The game appears to be a balance of strategy and counter-strategy, with players attempting to set up their win conditions while trying to counteract others' plans.
