@Jadiel

[details=Thoughts]So gimmicky goal is to make Prynn delete a bunch of his units forever.
White starter which means a couple things.
1: all his starter units are 1-2 health.
2: Safe attacking is really strong against defensive skeletons, and/or defensive tower.
3: Grappling hook and snapback are both respectable problems.

Finesse and Strength both have fairly strong answers to a dedicated skeleton strategy, and discord will kill any of my starter units but Imp or Jandra, as well as any skeleton party I could try to setup if I telegraph it too early.

My opening hand is pretty Meh for immediate aggression which means the questions I need to answer are:

  1. Do I Hero or leave it ‘open’ for now?

  • Garth doesn’t bring anything special yet as I can just skeleton javelineer without spending extra cards and it is strictly superior to a token skeleton. If I summon him NOW I can potentially attack with him and javelineer using deteriorate, but that route has nothing against squadleader Rook as a 2/4+A, which would be difficult to kill off in a timely manner. Even mid on Garth doesn’t let me get anything special done.

  • Zane can do 2 damage to base, but is probably committing to trying to get something done against his board. With 4/5/6 gold next turn (javelineer, no javelineer//skip next worker, no javelineer and skip next worker) I can bring him to mid/max with possible deteriorate even with offcolor penalty. Zane route can deal with even a Rook – though I wouldn’t be getting any free levels.

  • Prynn does nothing at this stage, but gimmick route means I either am shooting for tech 2, a hero’s hall, or both. I suspect I am looking at Garth+Hero’s Hall, so I can continue to threaten Zane shenanigans while I work my way to Tech 2, Necromancy? Blackhand Rez, Seer, Netherdrain – keep

  • No hero – leaving hero open means I can continue to threaten some sort of Zane play, which might be enough to keep him off of a squadleader Rook, in which case I’m probably looking at either Grave + 1-2 drop, or a couple units. If I am playing something other than javelineer it is probably graveyard, expecting to play lots of imps? Just worker+Javelineer seems really tempting. I’ll have 7 gold next turn – enough for a fully threatening Zane, OR I can just turn around with worker-tech 1-Hero’s Hall, haunt and PBR or hero. I can also go for maximal shenanigans of javelin, midband garth for 5, sac javelineer, haunt deteriorate skeleton or save javelin and don’t deteriorate. Or Garth, skeleton, tech 1, haunt, worker. Lots of options depending on what he does. Smoker is probably the most annoying thing he could play if I am JUST javelineering? Another route worth considering is maybe worker-graveyard going in with 6 for worker-tech1-haunt-imp – but I think that haunt-imp-javelineer+graveyard is just not going to get there against a rook opener, so lets go with the float 2 route.

Worker summon skeletons. Probably going to want archery if birds appears likely, graveyard will likely be very strong if I go for tech 2 anarchy, and useful in necromancy. Possibly Lich’s Bargain sometime.[/details]

[details=Thoughts]Rook opener with smoker.
First off: Does anything need to die?

Killing Rook would be nice and the cheapest I can do that is Zane Maxband, but I don’t think it is correct as I need to give him scavenger to do it and then he can worker-grave-snapback zane for prynn?-tech 1 easy peasy. I wouldn’t have my tech 1 up, and only a skeleton. At the same time that WOULD also be all of his turn, but probably good enough if he goes straight to tech 2, as I’d be hard pressed to bust through 2/3+A squadleader and tech 1 to stop it.

If we’re not killing Rook, then do I want to bounce smoker and bring out Garth via Deteriorate? Probably not worth the deteriorate.
If I DO bring out a hero I need to make sure he doesn’t smoker takes/trades javelineer, mid Rook to walk past remaining patroller and dunk hero – avoidable by even as little as skeleton from garth, and some other unit patrol 3 bodies with garth behind the lines. That’s skipping tech 1 a turn which I don’t particularly like.

[details=Thoughts]Many ways to kill Rook.

Maxband Zane for 7, scavenge his aged sensei to worker, and kill rook. 4/2 Zane vs 2 card hand and Grave+River. Possible nimble fencer (1/7 redrawn cards), possible snapback (1/10 and 1/7 chances), DEFINITELY at least river OR grave, and quite possibly tech 2 as well – 7/10 gold, so he COULD snapback my Zane into something weak. Not getting anything special out of Zane so probably not this route.

Midband Zane for 5, deteriorate sensei – he draws 1, kill rook and obtain maxband zane who has a fizzled ultimate. 8 gold, but a higher chance of snapback (1/10 and 2/7 chances), still quite possible tech 2 rush. I have 1 gold left for a worker so I get a 4/4 Zane on board. Not terribly exciting. He’d need two tech’d cards to kill Zane (mostly just nimble fencer shenanigans, but nimble+two step+2 cost starter+River, but even grave+snapback is probably fine? 5/8 of his gold, so worker and double heros? I’d probably have Prynn in snapback world, and mostly sad if he kills zane another way. He’d be skipping a worker at least if he does it the other way.

Zane and Deteriorate for 3, trade zane with Rook, no levels for anyone – he draws 1.
Worker is 1, Garth+skeleton for 3 or I can go gunpoint+float. Draw Sac/Jandra/Graveyard +1 even if I only discard 2. Am I going tech 2 next turn? Probably not unless it is sturdy enough. No Zane next turn so what do we Tech? Seer Aaaaaaand Bone collectors are great.

No rook spells so Taxman squadleader? Survives basically anything he can try to throw at it. Or at least does a very good job trading.[/details]

[details=Thoughts]Double Hero, and floating his little pile of gold. Which is good – tech 2 here we come.
He’s got a good chance of discord (I’m pretty sure he’s on a discord setup). Possibly martial mastery into discord or something.
Even without discord he shouldn’t be terribly hard pressed to get through to a hero or sword a hero or something if he REALLY wants, so I don’t think prynn or garth are coming out to play. Yet. Origin story is going to be respectable at getting rid of grave to let me kill river, hopefully. Or whichever hero isn’t maxed at the time?

Taxman is going to be in squad leader so he has to at least level something to three attack even if he discords to actually kill it.
He COULD worker+maxband both hero’s for 10 and worker to get himself back to 5 card hand.

I think we’re going to put down the javelineer in tech. It is ‘wasted’ gold if he was going to discord anyway, but it means he can’t just maxband both heros, sword, break graveyard. Instead he needs to cast discord (not maxbanding both heros then), Grave midband into 1/2+A taxman, then maxbanded river to break my graveyard if he is going to this turn, which is 2+4+2 leaving (3 for worker plus up to two tech 0 dorks or a 2 cost tech 1) gold and a card for my 2 cards – javelineer back to hand, and 5 gold. And then my tech 2 is safe so I could get a rememberer or something next turn via Garth[/details]

[details=Thoughts]Well now also makes a lot of sense for him to be getting into spells – discord, two step, martial mastery, reversal all reasonable – discord loses a lot of power if I go for fetching rememberer right now
4 bodies, and 5-6 damage sources with reversals – probably not able to sword AND attack with grave, but can just kill something with rune.

So the ‘standard’ play line would be something to the tune of Seer, replay taxman from graveyard, worker, garth netherdrain river, zane kill scavenger – patrol Garth in lookout, seer in scavenger, taxman squadleader?

Discord kills seer, taxman is 1/2+A - Grave or Rambasa kills, sword Garth for levels on river, river+grave/rambasa kill tech 2 initiate sad panda time as he plays another body so zane can’t kill something, and stuck on tech 1s and spells vs river midband + discords.
Reversal also does good things to that kind of board, so I think we’re passing on it.

Zane-y play isn’t great either.
Garth 2, Zane 4, Netherdrain river levels to zane 5, zane to midband 6 trade with rambasa #1 scavenge +1 river can’t level grave can’t level - 3 gold left for stuff so worker + taxman or double skeletons, tech 2 run over for much the same reasons.

Non stealing Zane plan is the same skipping zane to midband so level 3 garth hanging around still 5 gold, levels are on garth instead of zane - 3 gold left for stuff so worker + taxman or double skeletons, tech 2 still run over.

Garthmaxband plan A: Worker is 1, and netherdrain+maxband is 7, so fetch something that can be sword rune’d, 3/4 Garth somewhere probably dies too. Tech 2 might survive if I patrol Garth behind whatever I fetch? (Rambasa+level 3 river kills the garth without killing river unless he is elite and then I’d need a golgort in squad leader to avoid suicidal grave sparkshotting + rambasa to kill, river able to do 2-3 damage is probably fine, but addition of reversal means golgort disabled, sword garth, rambasa+river kill tech 2, starts his own tech 2 and workers.

Garthmaxband plan B: SKIP worker, netherdrain+maxband is 7 fetch rememberer, seer to fetch Golgort which gives me a lot more stuff on board. He probably pops my graveyard, but tech 2 should survive if I have Golgort Seer Garth Rememberer in patrol.
So what is the last tech card? Shimmer Ray?
Golgort squad leader, Garth Elite so he definitely trades with even a river attacking him, rememberer resist, seer in scavenger or tech?
Reversal Golgort, Rambasa #1 for rememberer, grave swords garth, river > seer, pop graveyard, or dude+twostep to kill tech 2 with remaining Rambasa is still decent. I’ll want tech then so I am still on a quick-ish cycle.

If he DOESN’T have reversal golgort should keep my stuff up pretty solidly.[/details]

Pretty dead at this point I think.
GG.
Probably played too scared of spells too early.

GG, WP.

You seemed to play around Discord a lot, which I never teched. That was probably a mistake on my part, tbh - it’s my first time playing this deck (or white at all). I made a huge mistake playing Safe Attacking on T1, it put my cycling back a huge amount (and you capitalised on it very well by playing Imp T2), so I was basically a turn behind with all my tech.

Graveyard didn’t do anything for you, and I feel your T4 was where you lost control of the game. I was really impressed that you managed to put together the Past shenanigans on T5 though, that really took me by surprise.

If you want to play again, I’m happy to do so. I guess I’ll start this time? If you want to change deck that’s fine too - have you worked out which starter you like best?

18

Yeah I probably should’ve played to force you to actually have discord rather than assuming you were going to blow me out with it – it would’ve cost a card and gold and meant you not having as much tech 1 stuff for a while.

I’ll stick with this deck for another game, then if you still want more games I’ll probably start swapping over to purple starter as I haven’t tried that yet (There’s quite bit of overlap between this and PPA if I take the purple starter).
