Gameplay Summary

The game began with a competitive energy as the players tried to establish their board presence.

The first major play of the game was the casting of Chancellor of the Annex, which created a significant early game obstacle for the opponents.

The game continued with a variety of strategic moves including a notable casting of Karn, the Great Creator.
