Leverage artifact synergies and token generation to apply incremental damage via activated abilities like Sunshot Militia, while maintaining board presence with creatures and artifacts that synergize with mana production.

Control the board with disruptive spells like Lignify and cheat creatures into play with cards like Neoform, while generating tokens from Toggo to create board presence and synergies.

Gameplay Summary
The game began with players ramping and developing their boards, with Tatyova leveraging landfall triggers to draw cards and gain life, steadily building her advantage.
Rocco focused on artifact synergies, casting creatures like Sunshot Militia to chip damage through activated abilities while generating tokens with Toggo and Goblin Necromancer.
Keskit's deck incorporated disruption and utility, using cards like Lignify to neutralize threats and Neoform to cheat out creatures.
Ganax aimed at flicker synergies and treasure generation, but miscounted mana once, which didn't critically affect the game. A pivotal turning point was when Tatyova exploded off a series of land plays combined with Crop Rotation and Harrow, generating multiple treasures and drawing a significant number of cards to refill her hand.
This rapid development made her a major threat.
Meanwhile, Rocco and Toggo's rock tokens and artifact interactions kept the pressure on opponents, with Sunshot Militia dealing incremental damage.
Keskit's ability to disrupt creatures and cheat creatures into play slowed down enemy plans.
The game revolved around managing board presence and resource generation, with players attempting to keep Tatyova in check while advancing their own synergies.
The constant token generation, landfall triggers, and artifact activations created a dynamic and interactive midgame.
