Gameplay Insights

• 1

  Kyle’s aggressive use of Rowan’s life-pay cost and treasure generation allowed him to chain multiple spells in a single turn, culminating in a devastating Exsanguinate that drained 15 life from each opponent while gaining massive life back.

• 2

  Scott’s repeated cloning of Obyra with Spark Double and Erenicus's Vile Duplication maximized his fairy tokens and life drain triggers, steadily wearing down opponents.

• 3

  Matt’s Brenard deck tried to leverage a strong defensive position with Golem tribal and ramp, but was ultimately overwhelmed by targeted removal and the aggressive draining strategies.

• 4

  The use of aura spells like Parasitic Impetus and protection spells such as Swiftfoot Boots on Eriette helped maintain board presence despite heavy removal.

• 5

  Storm Fist Crusader’s mana cost and card draw triggered each turn, consistently fueling players’ hands and enabling aggressive plays early on.

• 6

  Effective removal sequencing by players, such as Kyle’s use of Fatal Push and Path to Exile, disrupted key threats but also opened up the board for larger plays by others.
