Summary

The game kicked off with a fast start from the Narset, Enlightened Exile player who managed to get Narset into play quickly thanks to a Mana Crypt and a Simian Spirit Guide. However, the Stonebrow, Krosan Hero player had a surprising turn with Hidden Gorillas which transformed into a 5/3 creature with trample after Narset's player cast an artifact. The Tivit, Seller of Secrets player faced some challenging decisions about when to use their Force of Negation, eventually using it to counter a Defense Grid from the Dihada, Binder of Wills player. The Stonebrow, Krosan Hero player then whipped out a Dockside Extortionist, followed by a Goblin Engineer, potentially setting up a Cloudstone Curio combo. However, the game took a turn when the Stonebrow player cast a Collector Ouphe, putting a halt to artifact strategies.
