Now that I can see whatā€™s in hand, Carrion Curse and Community Service become much more efficient, but whether that advantage remains long enough to make use of remains to be seen. In any case, itā€™s nice to protect the Hound from being sidelined.

Itā€™s tempting to kill River to prevent that Discord, but the tech draw might be something I canā€™t handle. Since I canā€™t destroy any buildings either way, I think itā€™s better to play defensively here. Of course, I canā€™t do anything about that Young Treant card draw either way, but one chance for something bad to appear isnā€™t as dangerous as two.

Thoughts

Unfortunately, I canā€™t stop the Rex, but I can at least block those Finesse units. Now would be a good time to have some Flagbearers, but without them, Macciatus is about to become lunch. Without Macciatus, Illusions arenā€™t so useful as patrollers, especially vs. Riverā€™s midband. I have to choose between summoning the Hounds or stealing the Maestro. Itā€™s tempting to take the Maestro to take back some of that hand advantage, but itā€™s not safe to patrol with a hero, so ineffective though they may be, Iā€™ll release the Hounds.

MIdori for flying threat, give any mimics flying as well.

teching in blade master and t rex. tech threes are the only guarenteed way to win since they are immune to most of his spells and abilities.

rather he trade into me than me to him. need more tech 3ā€™s.

"

I completely forgot I even had a Surplus (I think this was the first time Iā€™d built one since joining the forums). The card draw isnā€™t optional either, so my last 2 turns were technically illegal, but it seems like too much trouble to go back and make changes now. Do you mind if I just draw 2 cards now to compensate?

Sure. I think im writing this game off soon anyways. I feel like there have been a few mistakes unnoticed. lets play it out and see how it ends though. draw your cards and bring it on.

That Shambler is dangerous; I need to protect Macciatus.

"

il GG it there. i dont think id win from playing this out.

GG. Btw, if youā€™re interested in playing some games with map cards, check out the Crazy Map King-of-the-Hill

hey man, you interested in picking a game back up here, or are you too busy with FFA and Map Kings?

Thereā€™s enough downtime with those to fit some normal games in on the side, as long as you donā€™t mind me prioritizing the multiplayer games (since thereā€™s more people waiting).

no worries at all. im looking to tweak [balance/growth/necro - i was P1 last time we played, so you can feel free to post your team and turn 1. no rush to post often. just to keep it moving at a steady pace.

I donā€™t have an interest in Skeletons per se, but I do need cheap sacrifices, and the javelin rune might come in handy since Iā€™m not planning to use Skeletal Archery. I toyed with the idea of playing the Imp, but then he could easily recover hand size by playing a hero and building his Tech I, and the Imp canā€™t beat a hero on its own.

hmmm, with orpal out there, i need to watch out for his maxband. he could start wiping out my skeletons pretty quickly.

bringing in double tiny basilisk instead of double bone colector to make sure i deal with that and his heroā€™s hall.
