Gameplay Summary
The game began with all players establishing their mana bases and early ramp pieces, with Tymna/Thrasios aiming for a midrange strategy, Brago focusing on value through blink and stack interactions, Tatyova ramping and drawing cards off land drops, and Najeela setting up for an infinite combat combo.
Early turns saw typical setup plays including Soul Ring, Arcane Signet, and Mystic Remora, with players carefully navigating interaction and resource management.
A key moment occurred when a Supreme Verdict was cast to reset the board, but the players quickly rebuilt their positions.
The game’s turning point came when Brago’s pilot executed a classic infinite mana and combat combo involving Lithoform Engine and Venser, Shaper Savant, enabling them to bounce all opponents’ permanents and win through combat damage.
