I can trade in Jandra and develop something, sure. Or I can just keep Jandra around, play Imp, cry because I can’t build Tech 1. I could Graveyard and trade to thin my deck. The line I actually like best is Garth => Deteriorate => Jandra kills and takes 2, 2 to base. Tech in Doom Grasp so that Bomber is limited in plays with all that gold.

I don’t see an easy way for him to kill my Tech 1 here, so I should be able to do a nice Oni play. Not sure yet if I’ll bait the Doom Grasp or try to defend it. Hard to say.

First clear that comes to mind: Jandra clears SQL, Garth clears Technician, Nimble Fencer deals 2 to Tech 1, I use 3 gold to put up something in front of Garth. Summon Skeletons is an obvious one. What can I do to keep the pressure on, then? Let’s tech a Discord and the other Nimble Fencer, that should let us eat any boards that go up. Wither kills Garth, but that’s it, and I’m okay with that resource being pulled into him. I don’t actually need that Doom Grasp any time soon. This play develops my board, and if Garth dies, I can Midband Drakk and have three units that benefit from the frenzy.

So that was scary, and no Doom Grasp! What do we have instead? Run Garth into Squad Lead, summon and midband Drakk (5), skeleton kills squad lead, skeleton kills the other cadet, we waste 3 damage killing a soldier, patrol Drakk. Deteriorate the other soldier, I guess? Pretty icky. Instead, I thought up the max Garth play. Max Garth (6), pull Starlet from discard, Garth kills SQL, Fencer kills Cadet, takes 2, skeletons trade with soldiers, Starlet breaks Tech 1. Play Haunt. I could cast Deteriorate to pull a Fencer instead, giving me a 2/2 on board that doesn’t die to a soldier, but I think I’m okay with things as they stand. I’ll probably lose Tech 1, but I’ll have a 3/2 Garth, a Haunt, and either a 5/1 or a 2/1 to show for it, and roughly tied on board.

Thinks

Oh right, Garth maxband. What an annoyance. Still, this should lock him out of most good plays. A doom grasp costs him at least 6 here, or he can trade in Garth for a kill.
I suspect instead he will bring out Thieving Imp, but that should give me a good opportunity for tech up and counterstrike.

Cool, we now have a clear with Frenzied Starlet and Deteriorate. Deteriorate Brick Thief, Garth trades with Squad Lead, summon midband Drakk (5), Starlet trades with Oni, max Drakk. Leaves me on 2 gold, I don’t have much to do with it, but having a max Drakk on board to Bomber’s nothing is a really strong swing. I’m close to really needing to apply pressure, though. Bomber’s been slowing the game something fierce.

It’s a curious position, but I think I’m on the front foot here. I can’t give away levels because he has no way to sack Drakk, so may as well wall up hard and try to get my Tech 2 happening. Bad draw though, not certain what to do here. Perhaps Truth Tech 3 is the way to go?

Okay. Drakk takes out SQL, I can play a Frenzied Jandra who takes out a hero and overpowers onto the Mirror. That’s 3 gold, I play Tech II for 4 gold. 2 gold left, I can actually clear the other hero if I want, going down to 3 cards. Waste of four perfectly good levels, but it leaves me with Nimble Fencer on board (1 health) and 3 cards. Am I okay with that? I can also leave a hero up (probably Quince) but only have Drakk in play. I think I gotta clear everything to have a shot at killing Garrisons.

Huh. Right. Bomber can tech in Fencers. That makes for another possible haste threat. Here, I failed to draw a unit, but I can summon a maxband Garth (8) and fetch a Crashbarrow. Drakk kills squad lead, frenzied Crashbarrow kills Oni and the other Cadet. I throw up a skeleton (9) in squad lead and put Garth in Technician, then worker. The biggest threat Bomber has is Garrisons and Drill Sergeants, but right now I really can’t do anything about that, so I need to set up, hope this patrol isn’t broken, and then have some powerful Tech IIs to throw out next turn. Really hoping I can keep maxband Drakk around, but Drill Sergeants into units will do me in. (Bomber needs one rune on the first soldier, and then three runes on the second soldier to do it. This means four units. Bomber has 7 gold to do it with, and no cadets unless he gets lucky. But the alternative is just “play Discord, which kills the soldiers, leaving two Cadets and Onimaru up”, which I think is worse.

Regrettably, that Free Speech doesn’t shut me down but it is annoying. It stops Glider -> Garrison. So this turn I definitely double Ogre Recruiter and Shoddy Glider, that’s the max stats I can put into play. What does Glider kill? Pretty sure it teams up with Garth to kill the Drill Sergeant. I want to keep Drakk alive if I can, so I can Kidnapping (fingers crossed) next turn. Ugggggh but I have to kill the mirror so it doesn’t become an Ogre Recruiter.

Thinkerino

Didn’t get to worker, which sucks. I really didn’t want to draw the Garrison there. Oh well, unlikely he can bust my patrol this turn so I can dump everything next turn and should be able to worker too. I’m not actually sure what my win con is… probably just a bunch of buff counters.

Riddle me this: what’s 1 gold and not a spell?

Thoughts

I am so, so glad that Quince’s maxband has a clear vulnerability. Wheeeeeeee! So Flagstone stays up, regrettably, but now I can clear the entire patrol zone and put up a maxband River (6), along with Shoddy Glider (7) and a Tower (10). Just floating 1, I don’t want to worker here. Or do I? It would let me maxband Drakk and drop an Ogre Recruiter on the same turn. Nah, I want to cycle faster, and I need both of those spells. Next turn, I’ll get some proactive board presence with two hasted Virtuosos.

@Bryce_The_Rice’s turn!

Also make sure the Glider didn’t go into your reshuffle. He died afterwards.

Barring something insane, I think I have this in the bag.
