Summary
The game started with players ramping and setting up their boards cautiously, with early plays including mana acceleration and utility creatures like Hermit Druid and Priest of Titania. Selvala established a significant presence with creatures such as Soul of the Harvest, enabling card draw and mana production. Armix/Thrasios leveraged artifact synergies and graveyard recursion, including Underworld Breach and Profane Tutor, to enable powerful reanimation and tutoring plays. A pivotal moment occurred when Selvala became a massive threat via colossification and equipment, reaching a huge power level that threatened lethal damage. Despite attempts to disrupt and control the board, Selvala's infinite pumping loop involving Eternal Witness and Beast Within eventually overwhelmed the table, securing the victory.
