Thunderclap seems like a good surprise answer for the likely young treant given the turn 1 tech 1. there is a decent chance rook will be able to break tech 1 before he can build tech 2, but I remain concerned about my own path to victory.

I had to draw the barbarian now, sigh… Oh well I am in a tough spot for worker choice. I am going to have a pretty bad hand next turn, so here’s hoping I can make something of it…

Note I built the tech 2 too early, and it should in fact have happened at the end of my turn. Nothing else need change though. Thanks for pointing it out.

And there is the free speech, but do I put in the Pirate Gunship now, or wait, let it take a few cycles to draw them and put in something I can use now.

So, I am free of free speech for a turn. I could have let him keep using it and not played Mad Man, but this way I can use Args midband on DB next turn. And eventually I can bring out Pirate Gunships to seal the deal.

GG! Yea, I was going to be in a bit of a tough spot for cards though. You pulled that mech on me before, and I had a ton of time to prepare to kill it. I did get a little lucky drawing Degrey that turn.

that DeGrey play was dirty.

DeGrey’s a dirty man. It’s what happens when you’re stuck in a Flagstone prison for ages.

DeGrey is a cut and dry answer to the mech, can’t even be silenced. I almost put in the second degrey instead of the monkey, probably would have been the safer play and just float the gold instead of building the tech lab so early. I was hoping to threaten hastey stealth to force spending on a tower.
