Gameplay Summary

The game kicked off with strong starts from all players, each quickly establishing their boards with their respective strategies.

Logan, piloting Minsc & Boo, took an aggressive stance early, ramping quickly and making use of his commander's abilities to apply pressure and draw cards.

Matt, playing Miirym, Sentinel Wyrm, focused on building a strong dragon tribal board, while Cameron (Nine-Fingers Keene) attempted to leverage his gate land type strategy, and Chandler (Raphael, Fiendish Savior) aimed to build an imposing army of hellish creatures.

However, the game took a significant turn when Logan dropped a Chain Reaction to wipe most of the board, which greatly affected Matt's dragon army.

The game continued with players rebuilding their boards and strategizing for the win.
