Summary

The game started with all players ramping up their mana base and setting up various defensive and offensive artifacts. Shivam's turn one play was explosive, setting up Kinnan, Bonder Prodigy and Sylvan Library. Jerry, playing Winota, Joiner of Forces, brought out Eidolon of Rhetoric early in the game to limit the amount of spells that could be cast per turn, which was a significant restriction for the other players. The game proceeded with a balance of offensive plays and strategic defenses, with each player attempting to advance their own game plan while disrupting others. However, the game reached a pivotal point when Shivam managed to get a Basalt Monolith into play, going infinite with Kinnan's ability.
