Summary
In this intense match-up where all decks are absent of green mana, the game unfolded with Maxim's Braids deck focusing on sacrificing permanents and drawing cards, while Felix's Cadric deck aimed at generating token copies of legendary spells. Seb's Wilhelt deck focused on reanimating and creating a zombie horde, and Dihada, controlled by the analyst, aimed to control the game by stealing opponents' creatures. The turning point occurred when Felix managed to create multiple copies of Yosei, the Morning Star, leading to a cascade of effects that tapped out and suppressed Maxim and the analyst's next untap steps. Despite efforts to control the board, Felix's overwhelming board presence made it nearly impossible for the opponents to recover.
