Thoughts

I wouldn’t normally go down on cards to run a Pestering Haunt out like this, but next turn looks like a prime opportunity to play Graveyard. Also, I want to punish him as hard as possible for a slow start.

I messed this turn up pretty badly, the Bloodburn dmg should have gone somewhere else

18

Taxman doesn’t get haste.

2016-03-03: If a unit arrives from your hand, then after that you control a max level Drakk, then another unit arrives from your hand, NEITHER of those units will get haste from Drakk’s max level ability. The second one won’t because his ability only ever cares about the first unit per turn that arrives from your hand. The first one in this example also doesn’t because you didn’t have a max level Drakk when you played that unit, and Drakk’s ability can’t retroactively grant haste to units you played earlier in the turn.
