I discard, then reshuffle and draw, does this make any difference to your play/number?

Naw that’s fine

Thoughts

The board is somewhat stabilised, and I now remember he no longer has disease to deal with immortals, so my last techs probs should ahve been immortal + Hyperion. But never mind, Immortals coming shortly.
Save the gold, Purple always needs more gold at the tech 2 stage, and I can always threaten Futures/Pasts tech 3 if need be.

My Thoughts

Glaxx, hmm. I think best thing to do here is still rez Maestro and go ham. I’m going to go ahead and recycle my graveyard too. Other tech will be Guide, he’ll help do some damage. I imagine he’s going to max Prynn, kill Vandy, build a surplus or HH, so Guide will help the Fencer and Starlet left standing do some damage.

I think its safe to say that was a hand I never want to see you have again…

My Thoughts

Would be nice to draw Fencer or Starlet to use here additionally, or Deteriorate to keep Maestro + Fencer safe. 37% to draw something good, let’s do that. Teching Lizard and another Guide. Maybe this time he’s going to trash my guide…
…
Hmm, Graveyard good but everything else not so much. We’ll see what he ends up doing…

Shadow_Night_Black · June 21, 2018, 6:46pm

I agree, looking at back at the history, its very likely you get that hand, with the graveyard keeping 4 cards out of your deck, and dark pacts to draw cards, plus your units on the battlefield, you really sculptured your draws well

so am I insanely lucky or am I dead this turn?

It was still reasonably fortunate for me to get the fencer and 2x starlet

I’m 66% to get lethal here. Will I? Let’s see!
