Alan, playing Etali, has a slower start but makes a big play with Seething Song into Finale of Devastation for X=4, getting Dockside Extortionist and setting up for potential infinite mana next turn. Tyler, playing Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy, manages to disrupt this with a well-timed Swords to Plowshares. The game ends in a flurry of interaction and strategic decisions.
