Summary

The game began with all four players setting up their respective strategies and ramping mana, with Prosper focusing on treasure generation and value, Faldorn exploiting discard and exile synergies, Zevlor aiming to interact and disrupt while copying spells, and Gavi leveraging cycling and control elements. Early turns saw players establishing their mana bases and deploying key ramp pieces like Arcane Signet and Priest of Titania, while also setting up board presence with creatures and utility spells. Prosper utilized treasure tokens aggressively to accelerate his gameplay and value generation, while Faldorn took advantage of casting spells from exile and discarding to fuel his synergies with cards like Containment Construct. Zevlor focused on disruption and copying spells to maintain control over the board state, and Gavi cycled through cards and used Astral Slide to protect creatures and set up for a win condition.
