Summary

The game began with a strong focus on early board presence and tribal synergy. Millicent, Restless Revenant led a fast, evasive spirits strategy aiming to quickly apply pressure with flying creatures. Edgar Markov's vampire tribal deck sought to flood the board with vampires, leveraging lords and anthem effects to overwhelm opponents. Toxrill, the Corrosive played a control-oriented game, shrinking opposing creatures and utilizing mana acceleration to maintain board control, while Wilhelt, the Rotcleaver focused on zombie tribal with graveyard synergies and sacrifice outlets to generate value and drain opponents' life totals. Key turning points included early counterspells and removal that slowed down aggressive starts, such as a well-timed Monodrain shutting down Olivia Valderran, and repeated sac effects triggered by Wilhelt's grave pact combined with Bastion of Remembrance draining opponents. Edgar Markov's player built a formidable vampire army boosted by legion lieutenant and other lords, swinging for significant damage and maintaining board dominance. Millicent's player used token generation and anthem effects to push through damage, while Toxrill's board control elements kept the battlefield in check but struggled to take over due to constant pressure from vampire and zombie tribes. The game developed into a tense battle of attrition with multiple sac triggers, life drain effects, and tribal synergies driving the action. The win condition centered around tribal aggression and incremental advantage through board wipes, sac synergies, and anthem buffs. Edgar Markov's vampire tribal aimed to close out the game by overwhelming opponents with a large, pumped vampire army, while Wilhelt leveraged sacrifice and drain effects to slowly erode opponents’ life totals. Millicent sought to finish quickly with evasive spirits, and Toxrill attempted to maintain control by weakening creatures. Ultimately, the game featured a dynamic interplay of tribal synergies, control elements, and life manipulation that kept the board state fluid and competitive throughout.
