Gameplay Summary

The game began with all players developing their mana bases and deploying early ramp and utility creatures.

Falco Spara set up a Hermit Druid combo line early, but it was disrupted by Abrade.

Meanwhile, Rocco, Cabaretti Caterer quickly established a Kiki-Felidar infinite combo kill by flickering Felidar Guardian and Karmic Guide with Kiki-Jiki, leading to an overwhelming board state of infinite hasty tokens and a swift victory.

The second game saw more interaction and counterspells, with Chad on Rashmi aiming to control the board and generate value, Zack on Tymna/Kraum looking to go for a Breach Brain Freeze combo, and Cal on Prosper grinding value with Ad Nauseam and Dockside Extortionist loops.

Ryan on Rocco again tried to establish his combo with Survival of the Fittest and Arena Rector but faced disruption from Chad’s Mana Drain and Reset.

The game featured heavy resource denial, board wipes, and tactical use of tutors and counterspells, highlighting the tight, interactive nature of competitive EDH.
