Summary

The game was a thrilling brawl between four unique commanders with varying strategies. Early in the game, players built up their boards with creatures and enchantments. A key turning point was when Reese cast a Fire Covenant, dropping his life total significantly to wipe the board. This prompted a response from the other players, with a three-way effort to take down Chris, who had developed a powerful board presence with Avacyn, Angel of Hope, Bruna, the Fading Light, and Gisela, the Broken Blade. In a spectacular finale, Fred played a Wandering Archaic followed by an End-Raze Forerunners, used Kiki-Jiki to copy the Forerunners for an additional pump, and launched a lethal attack at Chris. The remaining players then faced off, with the final turn involving a massive Overwhelming Stampede and Blasphemous Act play.
