Gameplay Summary
The game featured a fast-paced duel between Krenko, Mob Boss and Titania, Protector of Argoth.
Krenko's player mulliganed aggressively to find a workable hand focused on mana rocks and Goblin token generation, setting up for explosive turns.
Despite some early tempo plays with Bushwhacker and other goblin synergies, the opponent on Titania steadily ramped up their board presence by fetching multiple forests and deploying powerful elemental creatures.
The Titania player utilized land recursion and ramp to quickly assemble a formidable army, which ultimately overwhelmed Krenko's aggressive but mana-starved strategy.
A critical moment came when the Titania player strip-mined key lands to disrupt Krenko’s mana base, tipping the game in their favor.
Krenko's deck struggled to stabilize against the steady growth and resilience of Titania’s elemental forces, leading to a decisive loss by turn six.
