Summary

The game progressed with an intense battle for board control and advantageous trades between players. The early game saw a fast Slicer rise to dominance, with players struggling to keep up with the pressure. A key turning point occurred when Hidden, piloting Shalai and Hallar, managed to assemble an infinite combo with Dockside to generate a massive amount of treasures.
