My Thoughts

Blah. Don’t give him cards and let’s see what he decides to kill between the tech 3, tech lab, and Sets (I’m guessing he’s killing Sets)

50

Vandy can’t doom tech 2 units, (un)fortunately.

My Thoughts

As expected. That’s fine though, I’ve locked him off heroes for a turn. Next turn we can bring the whole hero squad out, and we’ll see how he’s able to cope with that. Maybe even get lucky and get an Earthquake or SotF.
…
Nice!?? I drew the whole load, probably would have been good to space those out at least a touch, but no matter, we’ll work with what we got

55

I’ll scoop on that, i shoulda been in lookout for snapback, but that wouldn’t really have helped.

I’ll post my turn 1 shortly.

:joy:

It’s hard to feel sorry for Vandy, but losing to Snapback may be the most salinating experience in codex. I think it gets my vote for most obnoxious single card outside of gunships.

Oh and great series so far guys, loving following it. Keep up the good work!

Thanks @thehug0naut :slight_smile: I only really feel bad about Snapback when you kill the snapped-in hero and completely lock the opponent off spells. It definitely feels awful to have even starter deck spells dead in hand.

Lucky me you didn’t also have Haunt for this opening, gl hf @zhavier!

Tech 2 Demonz eh? I need to generate pressure in a hurry to combat Zarra. Ninja is my fastest tech 2 but not necessarily effective against it. I’m going to go with Strength and a Doubling Barb (goes well with SP and Sensei’s Advice), and I’ll see what I can do from there. IPN is decent backup to the Barb eh?
