Will put up a turn on Monday. But dang, if I’d noticed that earlier I’d have considered getting a Surplus.

Wow, that’s a bad draw. Think I’m beat, but I’m going to gamble on an airborne run on his base.

GG! Should’ve transitioned / gotten a surplus up earlier.

charnel_mouse · September 18, 2018, 12:57pm

Going to call it there this close to the start of XCAFS. Best of luck!

cstick · September 18, 2018, 2:27pm

Thanks, you too. FWIW I think I got pretty lucky drawing the Doom Grasp on turn 5. And I agree that you should have played Midori turn 6.

codexnewb · September 18, 2018, 5:53pm

thanks for running these games. its fun to watch and learn.

also, “An Immortal smacks Blademaster”

how does this happen given swift strike? immortal doesnt apply is damage since it gets exhausted upon taking 6 damage from Blademaster. right?

cstick · September 18, 2018, 6:08pm

It gets exhausted, but it still deals combat damage because it’s still alive. For the in-depth ruling, see the post below, under the bullet about combat with multiple abilities:

codexnewb · September 18, 2018, 6:19pm

ahh, i see. nice one.
