Thoughts

huhā€¦ if i build a tower and lay down TD, he could destroy the tower right away with a maxed vandy. heā€™d have to pump all his money into her, but will that prevent him from doing that?

i donā€™t like the alternatives neitherā€¦ summoning a hero, or going down in handsize also seem quite unattractive. i guess i just hire newsman and get a gold for scav?

edit: accidently added a tech i building already - thought about building it and marked it in the spreadsheet, but then i decided differently and forgot to erase itā€¦

I`m sure you will find an answer :wink: but I know the first turns are really tricky for the blue factionā€¦
Here is my challenge for you :innocent:

ohā€¦ i wanted to play porky. discarding my 2/3 hurts, even if he is expensive

i feed him two levels if i summon a heroā€¦ i see no good options here.

maybe should have gone with TD instead of Newsman in T1 and get in max Oni + a worker in T2, followed by Art Of Warā€¦ that could have been worth a try

as iā€™m desperate already, i think iā€™ll give it a try anyway and skip my workerā€¦ that certainly hurts, but never tried it before :smiley:

okā€¦ no art of war in hand and no lawful search to try my luck for it. that makes things looking even more grim. on the upside iā€™ll get to play another deck sooner

Heyā€¦you have a hero at max Levelā€¦it`s not so badā€¦come on! :+1:

ha, i thought about vandyā€™s maxband and the +2/+2, but i didnā€™t think about soulstone - wp :smiley:

iā€™m not sure, but iā€™d say Onimaru only gets 2 runes, as you have to remove the soul stone the moment your plague spitter dies from Oniā€™s swift strike?

the difference is between 4 or 5 damage next turn :thinking:ā€¦ so itā€™s quite critical

I don`t knowā€¦but it sounds logicalā€¦do you find something about it in the forum?

i guess that pretty much covers our case:

itā€™s part of this (longer) post:

Not good for meā€¦ :woozy_face:

Thoughts

i originally intended to tech into law eventually. however, if he goes for a plague lab i could try and counter it with drill sergeant?

i guess, i donā€™t jump into tech 2 right now. maybe better to save some money to get back a max level oniā€¦

another question is if i should cast free speech now, or save the card and moneyā€¦ so i think, Iā€™ll risk a lawful search

ok, he has 4 spells in hand. i guess i go with free speech then


after draw: ok, that were not the cards i have hoped for. guess iā€™ll tech up and cast free speech again next turn
