Summary
The game started off slow, with players building their mana bases and casting their commanders. The first significant event was Sam casting Vorinclex and accelerating his mana production. This allowed him to cast Howl of the Night Pack, creating a substantial board presence. However, Extra's Goro-Goro and Satoru deck had a swift response with Berserkers Onslaught and Goro-Goro's trigger, creating a formidable army of dragon tokens. Despite this, Sam managed to eliminate Extra with a massive attack. The end game was largely defined by Tom's Urabrask deck, which leveraged a series of spells to trigger Electrostatic Field and Runaway Steam-Kin, eventually leading to a flurry of damage spells that eliminated Jon for the win.
