Summary

The game started with each player setting up their mana base and casting their respective commanders. The first significant play was Cody's Cyber-Controller, which milled each opponent for 3 cards and took control of all creatures that hit the graveyard. This resulted in a significant shift in board state as Cody gained additional resources. Cameron fought back with a series of sacrifices to draw cards and generate tokens, but ultimately it was Chandler's Ghalta deck that took the lead. Chandler's pivotal play was casting Last Stand of the Ants, drawing a significant amount of cards and putting powerful creatures onto the battlefield, including a game-ending Craterhoof Behemoth that boosted his creatures and allowed him to eliminate all opponents in one fell swoop.
