Gameplay Summary
The game started with the four players establishing their board states carefully, with early land drops and some minor interaction.
Both Tymna/Kraum players focused on setting up value engines and card advantage, while Magda leveraged treasure generation and Etali pressured with aggressive plays and mana acceleration.
A key moment occurred when a player cast Treasonous Ogre, indicating a shift towards more aggressive board presence.
Later, one player managed to assemble a powerful stack of spells including Dark Ritual and Necropotence, showcasing the typical cEDH value and combo potential.
