Gameplay Insights

• 1

  Mogis' use of Liliana, Waker of the Dead to force multiple discards early established strong board control and card advantage through Waste Not triggers.

• 2

  Casting Dockside Extortionist to generate a large number of Treasure tokens enabled a massive Torment of Hailfire, which effectively crippled opponents' resources and life totals.

• 3

  Hard casting Decree of Annihilation after Torment of Hailfire cleared the board, leaving Mogis ahead and able to finish the game quickly.

• 4

  Mogis capitalized on haste granted to Michael Holdred to close out the game with swift lethal damage.
