Gameplay Insights

• 1

  The Maelstrom Wanderer player's early ramp and card draw sets up for a strong mid to late game, potentially enabling a huge storm turn.

• 2

  The Pramikon player's 'Equipment Jellyfish' indicates a focus on equipment synergies, which could become a significant threat if left unchecked.

• 3

  The early 'Exploration' and 'Goblin Anomnancer' from the Ovika player could allow for explosive turns, especially if combined with goblin-generating spells.

• 4

  The Hylda player's use of 'Mystic Remora' for card advantage and the strategy to tap opponents' creatures could be a powerful control mechanism, slowing down the game to their advantage.
