Summary
The game started off with each player setting up their mana base and casting their commanders. Dom, playing Amareth, had a strong start, generating a lot of value with his Panharmonicon and bouncing opponents' key creatures with Reflector Mage. However, Joel, playing Gerrard, managed to disrupt the board with a well-timed Wrath of God. The game reached a turning point when Miguel, playing Baru, created a massive army of 42 million squirrel tokens using a combo with Scurry Oak and Ivy Lane Denizen. Despite the other players' attempts to stabilize, they were unable to deal with Miguel's overwhelming board presence, leading to his victory.
