Gameplay Summary
The game began with all four players quickly establishing their mana bases and early board presence.
Prosper, Tome-Bound leveraged his unique ability to exile cards and generate treasures, enabling him to assemble a Doomsday pile and draw a large number of cards.
Hofri Ghostforge focused on value through ETB and death triggers, utilizing tokens and the Kiki combo as a backup plan.
Godo, Bandit Warlord emphasized mana ramping and equipment synergy, aiming to assemble a lethal combo with Hammer of Nazahn and Argentum Armor.
Tymna the Weaver paired with Sakashima of a Thousand Faces worked on stealing opponents' creatures and generating value with infinite turns and creature copies. Key turning points included Ivan's explosive Dockside Extortionist into Godo combo, which generated a massive amount of treasures and mana, only to be temporarily thwarted by Alderaan's timely Rapid Hybridization.
Meanwhile, Hidden Planet's Prosper executed a high-impact Doomsday combo, drawing 37 cards and flooding the board with resources.
However, Hidden's win attempt was disrupted when Davo used Dualcaster Mage and Hofri's resurrection ability to remove him from the game.
The game featured intense treasure generation and resource trading, with players balancing aggressive combos against defensive plays.
Ultimately, the interactions between Hofri's value engine and Godo's equipment-led combos defined the midgame, while Prosper's Doomsday pile threatened to close out the game until it was dismantled.
