Looking back, you could have walled up with deathtouch ferocity, but that probably would have let me get down some more prep, or play maxband Rook. And killing the BA would have been much more effective than killing Arg, but I guess the gold didnt really work out.
I did feel pretty hindered by the BA limit change, but it just meant that I needed both BAs out to really get things rolling. Without the limit, I would have been able to break your tech 2 last turn.
The Midori change feels pretty oppressive, but maybe its ok. A 5/5 tech 1 feels harsh, but it is actually 6 gold in a hero, and 3 gold in a unit, its probably not that bad. And at least it doesn’t have overpower.
