Summary

Martin, playing Ghen, Arcanum Weaver, quickly gained momentum by casting artifact ramp spells and securing the monarch status multiple times, leveraging card draw and control elements. Meanwhile, Nick on Stitcher Geralf focused on graveyard synergies and aggressive zombie token generation, using Geralf’s ability to create and enhance zombies, as well as disruption spells like Rapid Hybridization to manage threats.
