Summary
The game kicked off with each player outlining their respective strategies and setting up their boards. The Omnath player aimed to maximize landfall triggers for value, while Gargos sought to become an unstoppable force through buff spells. Kinnan's plan revolved around generating infinite mana to cast large creatures, and Lathliss intended to bide time and strike with fire. The game was largely a back-and-forth, with players building up their board states, but a significant turning point was when the Gargos player managed to take out three creatures, including a key Sea-born Muse, in one turn, shifting the momentum dramatically. However, the game ended abruptly when the Kinnan player managed to pull off an infinite combo with Isochron Scepter and Dramatic Reversal, creating limitless copies of Cogwork Assembler to secure victory.
