Summary

The game started with each player ramping mana and developing their boards cautiously. Early plays included mana accelerants like Sol Ring and Arcane Signet, alongside creatures such as Ragavan and Timna, to establish early pressure. Wilhelt used mana ramp and combo pieces to apply early aggression, while Sisay focused on tutoring and building a toolbox. Jodah aimed to assemble a powerful board presence with multiple colors and combo potential. Sheoldred played a defensive but value-oriented game, leveraging life gain and incremental advantage. A turning point came when Sisay activated a series of abilities involving Kendra and other synergies, generating massive life gain and card draw that overwhelmed the table. This sequence allowed Sisay to outvalue opponents and maintain control, leading to a lethal board state. Despite attempts by Sheoldred and Wilhelt to stabilize or attack, Sisay's combo and card advantage proved decisive, culminating in Sisay winning the game after a well-timed activation of infinite activations and life gain mechanisms.
