Well, have to try teching up as I have literally no other good moves… AT least he’s locked off Geiger for a turn…


Note: Vandy should be a 6/6 from Nullcrat pinging her last turn. And your missing the haunt on your summery

Immortal is a 4/4 from Orpal Maxband last turn, so this is 1 damage short of eliminating Orpal. Please hang up and dial again :wink:

4 from Immortal + 2 from tric = 5 orpal health + 1 armour?

Unfortuently, with 3 cards draws and 4 cards left in deck, I fail to get the second TD, so I lose out on some damage, but still -13 is pretty good

Now playing w/ Finesse swapped in, and I am a big fan of Graveyard for this deck. Wiser not to drop it yet though, Nullcraft could peck it away before I get a chance to spam fencers. First tech likely to be Fencer or BC + DP or Shadow Blade.

I don’t have to good stall cards for black, so the choice is either battlesuits/Plasmodium so I can still develop a board later on. The +1 attack I think I can leave til later, but an extra body on the board will be really helpful, so plasmodium it is.

Slow roll eh?

Next turn I probably want graveyard + HH or something like that, and generally against Purple T0 and Stewardess, I probably want to go Finesse machine as primary win condition. So Dark Pact and Fencer it is, maybe follow up with Two-Step + Fencer. Meta is always an option too.

Expecting Fencers/Bone Collectors/dark pacts to be the techs here, playing around one fencer gives him an attack of 7-9. Fargo + Vir should be able to hold, and keep tech 1 alive, but a max vandy in not unlikely, thankfully nullcraft/plasmo should be able to crack back if he does.

My Thoughts

I want 3 hasty damage to kill that Vir with. Teching the other Starlet and Shadow Blade, if I get either one on the RS I can really cause a stir.

Nice, Shadow Blade. I have just enough to tech up and draw into Fencer + 2x Starlet, so even if he spends the 9 gold to max Prynn and give Plasmo a clear line, he’s only killing 1 thing, and I’m free to bring Max Garth for a Maestro and, thus, 8 hasty damage from hand + getting the Fencer back + another Starlet from graveyard if he kills Vandy.

Its a trap!
