Gameplay Summary

The game started with aggressive ramp and early board presence from all players, with Sithis quickly establishing an enchantment-based engine using Luminaric Ascension and Sterling Grove to generate card advantage and life.

Tymna/Malcolm focused on generating treasure tokens through combat damage and ramping with Grim Heirling, while Belbe employed a big mana strategy, ramping into large plays early.

Brago aimed to control the pace with artifact mana and value through repeated blinking of permanents.

Early combat skirmishes and interaction like Nature's Claim and Path to Exile kept the board in flux. Key moments included Fernando's (Brago) use of Sun Titan and Thalia, Heretic Cathar to exert pressure and disrupt opponents, as well as timely counter spells and removal to slow down Lutz's Tymna/Malcolm combo attempts.

Lutz managed to cast Windfall protected by Pact of Negation, refreshing his hand and maintaining tempo, but faced pressure from multiple fronts.

Jimmy's Sithis deck consistently drew cards through enchantment triggers and kept threatening with Ascension counters.

The game showed a dynamic interplay between stax elements from Brago, enchantress value from Sithis, big mana raw power from Belbe, and the treasure-driven combo potential of Tymna/Malcolm.

Several board wipes and targeted removals shaped the midgame, with players jockeying for the right moment to push for the win condition, either through combo or incremental advantage.
