Summary
The game started with players setting up mana bases and early plays, including casting mana rocks like Mana Crypt and Mox Diamond to accelerate development. Tinybones was cast early, signaling aggressive, artifact-sacrifice synergy. Evelyn quickly established board presence and began milling opponents by exiling cards from the top of libraries. Sidisi utilized self-mill effects and token generation, while Wilhelt aimed to control the board with disruption and removal. The pivotal moment came when Evelyn executed a complex Worldgorger Dragon loop combined with Dance of the Dead, exiling all libraries and generating infinite mana. This combo allowed Evelyn to attempt a win with cards like Demonic Consultation and Oracle of Mul Daya, threatening to end the game through massive damage or decking out opponents. However, interaction and counter spells prevented immediate victory, leading to a tense standoff. The game ended with Evelyn successfully disrupting opponents and gaining the upper hand through a powerful graveyard and exile-based combo, showcasing a classic cEDH finish.
