Gameplay Summary

The game started off with a slow pace, as players set up their boards while respecting potential threats from opponents.

Baal, playing Niv-Mizzet, Parun, introduced early game control with Grafdigger's Cage and Cursed Totem, significantly slowing down the other players.

Sequeira, piloting Aurelia, the Warleader, capitalized on this stalling by bringing out an aggressive line-up, putting his opponents under constant pressure.

The game reached a turning point when Sequeira cast a devastating Armageddon, wiping all lands from the battlefield and leaving his opponents unable to respond to his superior board state.

This led to a swift concession from the other players, resulting in a decisive victory for Sequeira's Aurelia deck.
