I see only two openings here that do not evaporate immideately to midbanding Vandy.
a) Calamandra + Forest’s Favor
b) Arg + Playful Panda

While I like a) better in theory, in case he foregoes Tech I and simply kills Calamandra he has a board and I have nothing, which is a problem if the followup is Heroes’ Hall and Metamorphosis.
With b) he can either Deteriorate & StW + midband Vandy to kill Argagarg, but at least that leaves me with a 2/2 and the Scavenger gold. Or, if he doesn’t want to skip Tech I he can kill both the wisps and StW the Panda, which should be a good trade for me since I get the Scavenger bonus.

Yeah, we did a while back.

Maxing Arg instead of playing a card to get back up to 5 cards next turn without much trouble. The trade is also in my favor even if he uses the Haunt next turn to kill the Panda.
Not sure why he didn’t kill the Squad Leader Wisp last turn.

@IsotopeX gentle reminder that it is your turn.

Sorry, been travelling.

Not sure why the Haunt killed the Wisp instead of the Playful Panda, this allows my to have amazing value trades this turn! Drawing the Centaur from Young Treant is suboptimal - he would fit very well into my next turn.

Trying to go for a quick Tech II so I’m teching in the Tigers already. Not sure if Feral is the right choice here. Growth and MoLaC seems good as well since I have the board advantage, but I want to explore other avenues in this game.

Ok, here I have the problem that letting Garth live will give him to possibility to use his maxband effectively. Looking at my board, however, generating 4 attacks with a total of 9 damage seems impossible. Necro Tech II doesn’t seem so threatening unless I let the Skeletons get out of control, so maybe just putting loads of stuff on the board with the intention to Stampede/Dinosize something next turn is enough to hold on? He can’t do THAT much damage to me next turn, can he?

Stampede!!!

Centaur has to attack before Stampede for Overpower to work so I can kill both Garth and the Tech II this turn.

It’s over.

Gg! Are you interested in a rematch?

Sure, but I’m going to switch to White if that’s OK.

Sure, should I go first this time or should we roll again?

Ah before we write another 10 posts concerning the method how to start the next game, I’ll just post my turn and hope you’re okay with it.
