So, a rematch with Legion, facing the classic PtW opening… Let’s see if he really got the perfect split, with Deteriorate and StW in his 2nd hand.

I’m expecting Legion to DP soon to replenish his hand size, and probably more than once. So why not turn this into a base race right from the get go? I’ll start with Crash Bombers and try to move on to Bugblatters. I’ll even keep Bloodburn in my cycle for now.

This isn’t going very well… but I guess it’s too late to back out of the base race.
P1T4
Hand : jandra, sac,graveyard
Tech: nimble+starlett
Thoughts : ok, big question, do i go tech II or continue crippling his tech I? I only have maestro as tech II, so i think delaying my tech II is no biggie. hmm. I’ll build tech II as a decoy, so his ramba will attack that instead of my base.

As much as I’d like to go nuts on Legion’s base here, Finesse tech 2 definitely has the means to OTK me, so that should be dealt with.
I don’t mind skipping a worker, since one way or the other this game will be over soon, and I’d rather Legion spend resources dealing with my board than going straight for my base.
As for my resources: no matter what happens next turn, I can muster at least 8 hasted damage. I’m teching BtF in case Legion switches to a more defensive tactic (as in, decides to patrol at all), and Desperation because, well, I’m Desperate.
A pity that I workered Pillage over Scorch.

Oh wow, I didn’t expect Geiger to survive. That puts a damper on all my plans, really shrewd move by Legion.
Since I can’t break through patrol to deal base damage, I need to think about my own survival. Legion has 2 very powerful options available to him: fetching a Grounded Guide for a virtuoso invasion, or a full 3-hero Meta. I can stop the 1st option through fairly efficient trades with my tech 0’s, but there’s nothing I can do to avoid facing 3 Demon heroes next turn…
…well, nothing but race to kill his base first! Assuming he has to fetch Meta from his deck, I could survive one more turn behind a tower, which might be enough to scrounge 8 evasive damage via Crash Bombers, Shoddy Gliders and BtF. Not much else for me to do.
Whoa, really? I was fully expecting a 3-hero Meta right now, which I’m not at all sure I would’ve been able to sneak 8 damage through.
Edit: actually, I just realized my next hand contained exactly 7 unstoppable base damage for 8 gold. So yeah, unless you’d have broken my tech 2 somehow, I could get to lethal. GG WP
