Summary

The game kicked off with a balanced start, with each player setting up their board states and deploying their commanders. The first significant turning point arose when Carlos (Rielle, the Everwise) played a Turbulent Dreams after drawing a significant number of cards, bouncing six permanents back to their owners' hands. This included several key pieces, such as Phil's (Tovolar, Dire Overlord) Tovolar and Augur of Autumn, and Kelly's (Ghoulcaller Gisa) Reaper from the Abyss. Despite this setback, the game took a surprising turn when Brice (Orvar, the All-Form) cast Rite of Replication, copying Kelly's Reaper from the Abyss, creating a significant threat on the board. The game ended before a clear victor could be determined, but it was shaping up to be a fierce contest between Carlos's card advantage, Phil's recurring threats, Kelly's powerful demons, and Brice's copy shenanigans.
