Summary
The game saw each player slowly building their board presence and interacting with each other's strategies. Hamster's Minn, Wily Illusionist deck focused on generating and sacrificing illusions to bring other permanents onto the battlefield, while Antonio's Targ Nar, Demon-Fang Gnoll deck leveraged trample creatures and forced opponents into unfavorable blocks. Pine's Karazikar, the Eye Tyrant deck aimed to discourage attacks towards him and goad opponents' creatures, while Rat's Wulfgar of Icewind Dale deck brought out big creatures and maximized attack triggers. The game turned in Hamster's favor after a well-timed 'Perplexing Test' returned all non-token creatures to their owners' hands, clearing the way for Minn's illusions. Despite the others' attempts to rebuild, they couldn't recover in time to prevent Hamster's victory.
