Thoughts
Putting in another DeGrey in case of Lich’s Bargain coming out again, and a Vines for sidelining big patrollers and to give me options if Newsman blocks 2-cost spells.
zhavier’s response was what I was afraid of. It worked out at a gold disadvantage for him, though, when he’s already 2 income behind, hopefully that’ll count for more than the card draw. Hopefully my income difference will start to tell soon, and I won’t have to resort to bringing in Crashbarrows.
I think my best option here is to maxband Drakk, which leaves 5 gold to bring out something to take out Quince. No way I can kill both heroes this turn, unfortunately, so I’ll spend 3 gold to kill Quince with Drakk and DeGrey, and 2 gold to block with Rook. Hopefully, I’ll quickly redraw into something useful.
… If Drakk survives, this is a great hand. I might be able to save gold for a worker, or for a later Colossus or Tech III.
EDIT: Oh, boy, Morningstar Pass + Lich’s Bargain. Crash Bombers should help clear that, but I hope I draw into my other copy of DeGrey soon.
