Summary
The game kicked off with all players focusing on building their resources and setting up board states that align with their respective strategies. Jason, wielding Nin, the Pain Artist, planned to generate a lot of mana and use his deck to force everyone to draw cards until they die. Julian, commanding Gluntch, the Bestower, aimed to help everyone draw cards and make the creatures bigger, then hit them with a giant jellyfish. Carlos, with Kynaios and Tiro of Meletis, aimed to play some really high-cost spells with the hopeful chance to win with World Fire. Jon, on the other hand, focused on flying damage with Errant and Giada. The game saw various interesting plays, such as Jason's casting of Min, Julian's use of Academy Manufacturer, Carlos's casting of Heartbeat of Spring, and Jon's casting of Imperial Eagle.
