Summary
The game started off with each player setting up their board states and mana bases. Notable early plays included Noah's Ristic Study and Talisman of Dominance. Hidden had an early Orcish Bowmaster that started dealing damage to players and creatures alike. Noah's Talion became a target for the table, but it survived thanks to a well-timed Veil of Summer from Hidden. Mike's K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth hit the board but was quickly removed. Noah was able to establish card advantage with his Ristic Study, drawing multiple cards each turn. Hidden's Orcish Bowmaster continued to cause havoc, eventually knocking Mike out of the game. Noah took control of the late game, casting a timely Cyclonic Rift to bounce Hidden's massive Orcish Bowmaster army. He then proceeded to establish a board presence with Wishclaw Talisman and Lion's Eye Diamond, eventually securing the victory with an infinite mill combo involving Scholar of Ages and Thassa's Oracle.
