You’re right, for some reason I thought Fencer was +2/2 and not +2/1. In that case, we’ll have lizard kill Galina and survive on 1hp, and Fencer trade with Vandy to take Lizard’s place in the grave. Edited in

GG, those Grounded Guides really worked out for you there. You’re P1 for game 3.

46

Vandy wasn’t actually at 5/4, she was 5/5, not sure why he lsited her at 5/4.

47

Also Morningstar has 6hp, and doomed imp only has 5 attack.

48

Doomed Imp w/ 2x Guides has 6 attack, and Vandy definitely had 4hp: she attacked tower + 1atk sql skeleton

My Thoughts

Goal next turn is wreck his shit and use the leftover money to drop BC + HH / Graveyard. Should be quite doable, I can bully too hard

53

It’s hard not to be, with so many tempting options. I think my failure to include a low-cost unit was the bigger blunder, though.

Not having cheap units to soak StW is terribad. Maybe I should be opening with Argagarg for his Wisp instead of Vandy…

54

You didn’t list me a card to discard for imp, so I random.org’d 5 of 5, and that was not great for me.

Meta OP, it’s open, we take it. Pack a fencer along with it, hope we don’t draw it on the turn.

Nice, this will work out well

Wasn’t great for me either; I was hoping to ditch StW.
