Summary

The game started with aggressive ramping from all participants, with Baal's Beamtown Bullies taking an early lead. The Beamtown Bullies, in combination with the Matzalantli, the Great Door and Bazaar of Baghdad, allowed Baal to manipulate the board, giving David's Jorn, God of Winter deck an Inverter of Truth that led to an early knockout. However, Josh's Svella, Ice Shaper deck managed to hold off Baal's aggression by using Legola's Quick Reflexes on his Eater of Days, which was given by Baal, leading to the removal of Baal's commander. In the end, Hélder's Rocco, Street Chef deck found an opportunity to assemble a Food Chain combo with Squee, the Immortal and Hedron Detonator, creating infinite mana and pinging both Josh and Baal to death.
