Summary

The game started off with players ramping and setting up their boards. Tom's Valgavoth, Harrower of Souls was quickly dealt with by extra's Rez'scul spell. Extra then cast his commander Zimone, Mystery Unraveler, and started manifesting with his Trail of Mystery. The game took a significant turn when John, playing Aminatou, Veil Piercer, managed to miracle a Fractured Realm, causing a lot of damage but also killing off most of the board. Afterward, Tom managed to finish John off with his commander. In the end, Sam, playing Winter, Cynical Opportunist, managed to set up a strong board and attacked Tom. Tom conceded, knowing he was beat.
