My Thoughts
I think I can get him with some surprise Rocs next turn, going to try and set up a good percentage draw with a skele sacrifice
…
Booo, I drew one of them??? Not my hounds or my Reteller or my Bone Collector?? Shoot, even my Aven would have been a nice draw… Bummer. Hopefully I can get the Roc next turn…
…
Woof. Can only hope he’s drawing shitty, too ¯_(ツ)_/¯

My Thoughts
Ugh… I think this game we’ll go for Growth T2 + Garth shenanigans. Probably 2x Lich’s Bargain for the next tech, and use Arg + T1s to block for it.

Rough rs Draw… This is going to be a rough game

I wasn’t planning to dump the Cadets, but there’s blood in the water, so it’s time for the sharks to start circling. If he sends the Aven after my Tech Lab, I’ll use the Brick Thief I’m guaranteed to draw to buy an extra turn.

Thoughts
His Blooming Ancient will surely pop my Spectral Flagbearer in the same way my Drill Sergeant popped his Spectral Aven, which means I still need 2 other patrollers. The Drill Sergeants are worth more to me than Onimaru is right now, so he’ll have to be sacrified to protect the engine. I’ll have the Cadet take point to ensure it’ll be converted into 2 more +1/+1 runes to use later.

My Thoughts
Dreamscape would be pretty excellent at plowing the path, I’m going to hope he hasn’t had the same brilliant idea, as my base is getting thin… I need to have a killblow soon, so hoping I draw the Blooming Elm.
…
Dammit. Well maybe between Arrest and DG I can make lethal? unlikely, but we’ll see…
Pairing Lich’s Bargain with Blooming Ancient seems rather powerful, and if I were trying to win through brute force alone, I would probably have been in trouble. I’m afraid that’s only half of my strategy, though. GG WP.
