The game began with each player setting up their mana bases and early plays, with notable ramp spells like Jeweled Lotus and Lion's Eye Diamond coming down early.

Gavin Verhey piloted a coin-flip themed deck led by Zndrsplt, Eye of Wisdom and Okaun, Eye of Chaos, aiming to leverage chance-based effects to gain advantage and finish with explosive combos.

Light Humphries' Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow deck focused on ninja synergies and dealing damage through ninjutsu triggers, pressuring opponents stealthily.

Nicholas Saenz played Narset, Enlightened Master, seeking to control the game with spells and generate value through extra combat steps or spells cast from the command zone.

Cassius Marsh was on Niv-Mizzet, Parun, utilizing card draw and ping damage to whittle down opponents, while also having access to reactive control elements. Early turns saw the players jockeying for position with mana acceleration and protective spells, while trying to disrupt others' plans.

The game featured strategic plays such as Muddle the Mixture tutoring for key combo pieces, and counterspells protecting critical spells.

Narset's player attempted to execute a turn three lead with a classic combo finish but faced disruption.

Yuriko's stealth damage and Niv-Mizzet's incremental damage and card advantage created tension on the board.

Gavin's coin-flip deck sought to maximize chaos and reward, with the coin flip mechanic influencing key decisions.

The game’s momentum shifted multiple times due to well-timed interaction and board presence.
