Matt chose Hylda of the Icy Crown, hinting at a return to his villainous land destruction tendencies with a Stax deck.

Brent played Agatha of the Vile Cauldron, with a focus on activating creature abilities.

The game then progressed with the players building their mana bases, casting their commanders, and setting up their strategies.
