Summary

The game opened with a cautious early phase as players established their mana bases and set up key artifacts and enchantments. Gilgamesh aimed to equip powerful equipment like Batter Skull to dominate combat, while Golbez focused on self-mill and artifact synergies, assembling a threatening artifact board. Vivi Ornitier quickly ramped mana by leveraging his power growth and played large threats such as Ancient Silver Dragon, setting up for a big finish. Clive, running a mono-red devotion deck, looked to generate card advantage and maintain pressure through aggressive creatures and repeated card draw. As the midgame unfolded, Vivi's explosive mana generation allowed casting of massive dragons and enchantments, swinging the game’s momentum. Golbez continued to surveil and recycle artifacts, maintaining board presence and value. Gilgamesh’s equipment and combat prowess kept opponents on edge, while Clive’s draw engine aimed to fuel continuous aggression. Key plays included Vivy's multiple combat triggers to boost power and mana, Golbez surveilling and casting artifacts to maintain tempo, and Gilgamesh equipping Cranial Plating and other artifacts for combat dominance. The game’s turning points revolved around these escalating board states and resource advantages, with the potential for Vivi’s stormy mana buildup and Golbez’s artifact recursion to decide the outcome.
