that’s a scary codex combo there. clearly im going to need a standard gameplan against necro with this codex.

it’s nice to float gold!! been playing so many games against red that i forgot it’s even possible.


they can either go garth, sk, skj, haunt OR Imp.

so, is there an opening that gives me flexibility regarding either of these two options?


i think rook / mad man is best.

P1T1 - rook/mm, scav: mm

Option 1: Imp/Skjav
gg 5, worker 4, imp 1, sk jav 0
P1T2 - discard one, gg 5, worker 4, tech one 2, dog if possible, otherwise, float. maybe hero’s hall.
P2T2 - gg 6, worker 5, tech one 3, garth/sk | jandra | pbr - something like that.
the point is, my response to imp can simply be double vines, thunderclap/vines, etc…

Option 2: garth, sk, skj, haunt
P1T2 - gg 5, worker 4, dog 3, tech one 1, mm.dog out front.

P2T1

Starting hand: 5

Jandra, the Negator

Pretty standard opening here, with Mad Man already gone Garth should be safe. Probably looking at Imp + Haunt + Skeleton next turn.

well that’s not so bad. next turn expecting gg 6, float 7, worker 6, tech one 4, imp 1, make skeleton 0
sql: imp
scav: sk
tech, sk
backline: garth

based on previous games, i suspect double BC. but i wouldnt put it past to for early LB as well.


millino dollar question, do i kill garth and open myself to a T3 cycle with 3 hards in hand and 6 in deck?

i think a t3 garth kill is way better than a turn 2. he can just bring garth out t3 if i kill him right now.


what about a hero’s halll. gg 5, scav 6, worker 5, tech one 3, hero’s hall 1, dog 0.
rook still blocks everything. and i get to threaten zane.

BUT, honestly, i NEED tower to down these skeletons. so HH sounds good for a turn, but what do i do when there are 4 or 5 skeletons out there with archery?

HH is bad idea.

let’s just float the gold for now and see if i can snipe an imp with vines. bring a GPT as well to steal some scav gold from sk patrollers.

yuck, the whiff. well, looks like ti will be an interesting turn 3.

Thoughts

Is it worth going for Taxmen over Collectors, in case of Birds? Maybe, but I could also just hold out for Skeletal Archery. Bone Collector’s ability is better for keeping pressure on, I think, which delays both Gunships and MoLaC.

whiff makes this turn easy.
tower, kill imp as efficiently as i can, force deteriorate and stw if they want to get the rook kill.

teching ancient and surprise attack to have options if rook dies.

P2T3

Starting hand: 4

Deteriorate
Skeletal Archery
Bone Collector
Bone Collector

Thoughts
  1. Don’t play Deteriorate, units trade with Ogre, Garth kills Dog and just survives. Block with Collectors + Skeleton against Rook.
  2. Deteriorate, units clear patrol, midband Garth, Garth kills Rook and hits level 6, 3 gold remaining. I can play Bone Collector, then either a Skeleton or replay the Imp. If the former, I can fetch the second Bone Collector next turn. Both keep Garth safe against Zane + Sharks, and he can’t afford Rambaster, Chaos Mirror, or Charge for that extra bit of required damage.

I think getting the board wipe is worth only playing one Collector, and fetching the Imp too keeps codexnewb’s hand size as small as mine. I don’t need to worry about Bird’s Nest, either.

yep, well at least the board cleared.

i can expect bc to trade, max garth, revive bc.

assuming their next turn is something like gg 8, worker 7, bc 5, tech two blood/necro 1, bc/sk->gpt, make sk, max garth, revive bc, garth hits tech 2 to 2
sql BC
tech sk

assuming the stw it’s gg 8, worker 7, stw, skeleton and taxman 5, max garth 4, summom BC, tech 2 necro/blood 0, garth/bc->tech 2, make sk
sql: bc
tech: sk
that’s honestly not that bad. better than GPT, BB, Arg, Wisp.

not looking good. odds are pretty high for a tech 2 over there. ill just wall up best i can and force some trades.

P2T5

Starting hand: 3

Sacrifice the Weak
Crashbarrow
Shoddy Glider

Thoughts

Interesting hand. Glider killing the Wisp lets me use Sacrifice the Weak on the Ancient and the Skeleton, definitely want to do that. Bone Collector trades with Argagarg, Crashbarrow kills Rook and destroys Tech II. That’s all for 6 gold, with Garth still available to attack. Options for the remaining 3 gold:

  • 1g: Summon a Skeleton for Sacrifice the Weak, so my original Skeleton can attack / patrol.
  • 1g: Worker, but I’ll need to sacrifice a Skeleton to do it. Chances of drawing a card I want to keep are high, so I think I want to skip.
  • 1g: Replay Shoddy Glider. This can kill Argagarg instead of Bone Collector, letting it attack buildings or patrol, and stopping my Graveyard from collapsing this turn. If Collector patrols, I won’t be left with any Skeletons, unless I summon one, and don’t worker or attack with the original. Chance of drawing something I want to keep is pretty high.
  • 2g: Second hero. Zane could help Garth destroy Tech I or the Tower.
  • 2g: Replay Bone Collector. No extra offense, but it replaces the one that trades with Argagarg, giving me another Collector + Skeleton patrol to defend against Sharks.
  • 3g: Replay Crashbarrow. Expensive.

Given I don’t want to draw for a worker, and I want a Collector on patrol, I need to either replay a Collector from Graveyard, or replay Shoddy Glider to kill Argagarg. That leaves the following options:

  1. Replay Collector, summon Skeleton, two Skeletons and new Collector patrol. Garth might attack. One Skeleton can help Garth destroy the Tower instead of patrolling.
  2. Replay Shoddy Glider, summon Skeleton. Collector and original Skeleton patrol. Garth might attack. One Skeleton on patrol instead of two, but I spend one less gold. I’ve got less chance of using Skeletons to recover my hand size next turn, however.
  3. Replay Shoddy Glider, Zane. Collector patrols by himself, but I get to destroy Tech I.
  4. Replay Crashbarrow. First attack kills Argagarg and leaves Rook on 1, second attack destroys Tech I, Garth destroys Tech II. Collector patrols by himself. Same end state as option 3, except that I don’t also have a 2/1 Zane on the board.

Option 3 is tempting, but Sharks let codexnewb kill Garth while having my Graveyard collapse, Mad Man lets him also kill Zane and still worker. How much of a problem is Garth dying? The only card I need him for next turn is Deteriorate. I really need him to help recover my hand size, though. Option 1 it is, with both Skeletons patrolling just in case of Mad Man. Garth can still die to Sharks + Mad Man + Rambaster, fingers crossed I don’t see that.

Bloodlust should be fine for punching through to Ancients, if I can keep up the pressure.

hmm, hard choice here. i THINK that i need as much patrol as I can muster, while wiping that graveyard out.

do what i can to not give them cards.

teching in double mantis to deal with this blood tech 2.

if i can get garth out of here, i might get a max rook next turn.

Phew, no hasted Red units.

3g for Crashbarrow, 1g for worker, Garth destroys Tech II if no one better’s available, everything else is icing. So I’ll draw a bunch see what I get. Teching Death Rites to see if I can get one off, and because it might be my best crowd control option if a ton of Wisps turn up. Also teching Kidnapping, in case I can’t kill of an Ancient via combat.

Getting another Tech II destruction here requires bringing in Drakk, but I’d have to get Garth and Zane killed first, and get Drakk to maxband while also playing double Bloodlust. Not going to happen. I’ll just kill what I can, and see if I can keep Garth alive for Death Rites.

Thoughts

Yikes. Double Crashbarrows to the rescue here, I don’t think I could have dealt with Rook otherwise. Midband Drakk + Crashbarrows kills Rook, and either kills Ogre or hits a building for 1. Not quite enough to destroy both Tech II and the Tower. Maxband Drakk + Javelineer + Crashbarrows loses the free levels, but the Javelineer can help Garth destroy the Tech II after Zane takes the Tower down. That leaves Drakk to defend on his own, but the Crashbarrow can overpower to kill the Ogre, so I think it’s worth it.

If the hero deaths start racking up by my next turn, I’ll think about teching in Resurrectors. If not, I might want Nether Drain / Wraith for dealing with Rook.
