Summary

The game began with players establishing their mana bases and early board presence, notably with mass land drops from Glarb's Avatar of Growth and other ramp spells. Early aggression was moderated by strategic sacrifices and removal, with Massacre Girl's ability forcing opponents to sacrifice non-token creatures. A key turning point came when Ashley cast Mutilate, wiping most creatures and resetting the board, followed by Living Death to bring back notable creatures like Forian Obliterator, shifting the board state significantly. Jeff leveraged powerful land recursion and ramp via World Shaper and Bontu, Lord of Lies, generating card advantage and pressure. Meanwhile, Mark built a formidable board with Magus Lucea Kane and token swarms, equipping his creatures to push damage. The game saw heavy interaction around board control, with castings of Cyclonic Rift and various counterspells disrupting opponent plans. Ultimately, the gameplay swung towards a decisive move where the narrator cast Agatha's Soulquake, pumping creatures to lethal size and attacking to eliminate Ashley, and shortly thereafter, Mark executed a devastating Crackle with power X=3 dealing lethal damage to both the narrator and Jeff, ending the game.
