Thoughts

Against Future, MoLaC is most definitely out, so Balance it is. I need to be aggressive to keep either the tech 2 Future / Quince off the board, and keeping my base above 18 life is important (might go tech lab growth for Artisan Mantis later).

@Jadiel this match is happening for sure, Shadow_Night_Black joins you in the two-loss bracket.

@EricF Sorry for the delay - it wasn’t because I wasn’t planning to play (even if we didn’t need to!), I’ve just been busy

@Shadow_Night_Black GL, HF :slight_smile:

Thoughts

He has no haste until tech 2, so playing around the number of attackers he might have is slightly easier, so I only need to leave the one patroller. He can sneak past, but that would leave him very down on cards.
Getting Discord as he seems to like murkwood allies, giving me an option to deal with the little guys.

Damn, was banking on the 65% that you wouldn’t draw it, (originally thought it was 80%, then i realised I did my maths wrong, oh well) GG @EricF

Yeah, I had really lucky draws this game. I hit a 42% draw for an Omegacron on T5, and the 35% for a Nebula on T7

I had enough of a board presence advantage that I should have killed ether your tech 3 or your glax rather then Cal/Vir, if I had done my math right then I wouldn’t have risked it, but for when I thguht it was 80%, I thought that killing tech 3 gave me a larger chance you coming back with Hives etc and me losing.

I think I had lethal if you kill Tech 3 or Glaxx as well, so it probably didn’t make much difference. Unless you have a line which can kill 2 of Tech III, Cal, Vir and Glaxx (apart from the one you took)?
