Summary

The game started with players slowly setting up their boards and ramping up their mana. Maximus, Kevin, Micah and the host were all playing different commanders, each with unique strategies. There was a notable turn when a Siphon Mind was played, forcing all opponents to discard a card and allowing the caster to draw cards equal to the total discarded. This caused a shift in the game tempo, pressuring the other players. Despite attempts for a comeback, the pressure from continuous attacks and control over the game state eventually led to a climax.
