Summary

The game started with the players showcasing their respective commanders and their starting hands.

Tori, wielding Mirri, Weatherlight Duelist, employed a cat-centric strategy that involved creating rat tokens for her opponents and benefiting from their destruction. Lua, piloting Liliana, Heretical Healer, showcased a strategy focused on zombie synergy and removal spells.
