Gameplay Summary

The game opened with players setting up their respective board states and their commanders: Frodo, Tom Bombadil, Smeagol, and Eowyn.

Frodo quickly became a threat with the addition of multiple equipment, including the Black Blade Reforged, Sword of Truth and Justice, and Sword of Forge and Frontier.

Meanwhile, Tom Bombadil focused on generating value with sagas, while Smeagol tried to gain control of his opponents' lands and take advantage of landfall triggers.

Eowyn, on the other hand, tried to go wide with her human tribal deck.

The turning point in the game came when Frodo, equipped with multiple artifacts, started dealing significant commander damage.

However, Frogdo fell to Cameron's Witch King of Angmar, but was quickly recast.

Sam's casting of The Akami War potentially threatened to shake up the board state.
