Summary

The game started with the players slowly building their board states, with Carlos, piloting Emiel the Blessed, gaining a slight early advantage by establishing a Cloudstone Curio engine. However, Jay, commanding Jeska & Kodama, was able to disrupt this by dealing triple damage to Emiel using Jeska's ability. Meanwhile, John struggled with mana issues for a good portion of the early game but managed to recover eventually. Dillon, playing Aragorn, developed a strong board state with a focus on low-cost human creatures. The game ended inconclusively based on the available transcript data.
