Didn’t draw the Crashbarrow, but Bloodlust+Porcupine allow me to kill both heroes. Alternative line is Bloodlust Porcupine+Drakk, they kill both his heroes taking Drakk to max, Vandy and Skeleton break Tech2. He’s left with 2 rather than 1 Bird, 1 of which kills Vandy. So rather let Tech2 stand than give an extra Bird + 2 hero levels. Either way, Two Step would help him a lot here, killing Porcupine.
Strength lets him wall up, with the scary prospect of Two-Stepped Barbarians (7/9 overpower !!). Porcupines are a reasonable answer, but still would be good to have Kidnapping in the deck as a Two-Step breaker (if Flagbearer isn’t out). So teching Kidnapping plus a second Dark Pact. I’ve plenty of good value high-impact cards, but really need the cycling.

1HP Vandy won’t last long, could die this turn if he has Sensei’s Advice, or soon to Smoker. Still, she’s done the job of stopping Rook or Grave get anything going early.
Teching 2 x Crashbarrows, and should be able to put down Graveyard next turn in preparation.

I fail to see a better line to take off the tech II. Maybe skipping worker and partner #2 for a heroes hall would've been an option, but I'm afraid being locked up to tech I too long by doing so. Here I've 40% chances to draw bird's nest and have my teching actually useless.

Maybe Workering or discarding 1 would have been better. Having some healing seems great though, as I can't take down the tower right now (tech II being the top priority). But then I'll lose partner to Haunt. Changed my mind ! I'll discard Monk.

Guess I’m just about holding in. His SPs have been really effective, though my IPNs have done a decent job too. Not so confident of Blood vs Strength Tech2 fight if that’s what it turns into once the dust settles.
Entered a turn including making a worker, thinking I was at 9 not 10 workers. So will rethink, if you don’t mind. Also notice I mistakenly gave myself $1 float at end of last turn that shouldn’t be there.
