Summary

The game started off with a typical setup, with players ramping and playing their commanders. Desmond, running Tamiyo, seemed to struggle with mana issues early on but managed to recover. Kzo, running Finneas, started to ramp up his board presence by buffing his rabbits and drawing cards. Eric, piloting Zoraline, established a strong board presence with a lifegain strategy, but was taken out with a lethal attack. A crucial turn occurred when a Blasphemous Act was cast, wiping the board. Despite this setback, players rebuilt their boards, with Desmond taking advantage of Omniscience to cast multiple spells for free. The game was cut off at this point, leaving the outcome uncertain.
