[Casual] charnel_mouse (Green/White) vs. FrozenStorm (Purple)

FrozenStorm · March 20, 2018, 3:07am

I’m game to play first or second as whatever you wanna play against.

If you don’t have a strong preference, I’ll stay on purple and go second

Hmm. No nature reclaims anymore, only upgrade removal is on Grave and he went Rook. So I like my chances to play around Battle Suits early and see where things go.

Thoughts

I’m not entirely sure what I’m doing here, and I’m worried FrozenStorm is rushing again, not a good situation to bring Birds out. Versatile Style is going in to take out the Battle Suits, and disable flyers if he goes Future. Spending my extra gold on a Heroes’ Hall last turn lets me go for mass heroes, so I’m bringing in Sparring Partners to boost them, and hopefully Mind Parry Monks later to stop Origin Story. Not sure after that: using Earthquake would be great, maybe Focus Master or Training Ground to keep Rook around to cast it. Most of Rook’s and Grave’s spells are looking pretty good, really.

Birds, expected, and I imagine he’s focusing down Battle Suits as well, so probably went for versatile style. Let’s hope no Rambasa Twins, and a lucky 20% pull on my Rememberer!

Well no such luck, next turn will be tricky to navigate! I guess if I get a good pull with my technician I’m still in business though.

My Thoughts

Luckily no Twins, though that was a nasty play all the same. Still, he’s a turn early for killing the Tech 2 (as I hadn’t drawn into it yet), so good for me I did draw my meatiest blocker. Would suck to have drawn Rememberer or Seer (even plasmo would have been not great). Going to max protect as best I can to hope for tech 2 staying up!

Bit of a waste of a Sword Rune, but I don’t fancy Grave’s chances to survive as the only blocker. Besides, I don’t want to draw into both Mind-Parry Monks before my Tech II goes up, so there’s no point in having him as a Technician either.

My Thoughts

Woof, he went for the sword. Hits me right when I have my combo, so that part sucks, but on the plus side I teched my other Origin Story and it paid off for technician; I can buy some time away from Rook. Means I can’t have Vir shelf the Rememberer though, oh well. I’m going to skip worker b/c I want to tech more cards yet anyway (archons, hopefully). We’ll see if I get to pull that off, but at least my tech 2 should survive next turn! Prynn probably won’t but what can you do…

…

Well hey! I drew two faders and TR, should allow me to dig up the other Seer, build some quick board presence, and maybe arrest the tempo back in my favor!.

My Thoughts

So let’s do some quick math: Vir + Fargo + Shimmer ray + TR = 7 gold. If I hit a seer, that leaves me enough to Rememberer + Fetch. If I don’t, I have enough to bury the rememberer on topdeck and tech 3. The only way that loses is if the topdeck I swap for is a Seer. So 40% chance I fetch with rememberer, 40% I successfully set up a combo for tech 2 / 3 (provided he doesn’t break tech 3…), and 20% chance I’m in a damned if I do / don’t situation. Drawing Origin Story would be not great, though likely he’s going MPM, drawing Nullcraft would be EXCELLENT to kill Grave, drawing Stewardess would be fine (get rid of that pest Sensei). Yea, drawing definitely seems worth.
…
Okay stewardess is on top, let’s hope that second card is a seer!
…
Nope Origin Story, now what is my fate for the swap, with a 33% chance at badness… GAH! Seer! Rotten Luck!

So what do I do now? I can Suits + Stewardess and flood the patrol, I can tech 3 and just invite the tech kill…
Wait a Minute, I didn’t have enough to tech 3 + bury after this! I still need another worker! D’oh!

He is light on cards, so it’s highly possible I won’t get hit with MPM. That would mean bouncing Sensei + Burying Origin Story might be a good play. Then I can play Seer as well in the front line, would that be good? No, I want both Seers in the deck to increase combo odds. Still, playing Stewardess is the right call. I could bring out Geiger as a chump blocker? Not a bad idea, though if he does hit MPM it’s inviting Rook to level for free… I want the max protect, so I’m going for it.
…
Hey! Rememberer AND OS on the turn! Very nice

My Thoughts

Well he left himself surprisingly open to attack… so let’s take that opening! Have to OS Rook, no choice in that matter, so can’t afford Rememberer. Might as well put it back on top for next turn then, I still have a seer left in the deck…

Well no Seer, but yes other Origin Story. That bodes well in case he decides to re-max Rook in SQL or something. I’m probably not getting to my tech 3 anytime soon, but oh well, I’m doing okay with what I’ve got.
