Necro Blood truth. I’ve never faced this directly, but I’ve seen the aftermath… I need to keep tech 2 down, or at least keep Quince/Graveyard off the board.
Easier said then done though, esp as purple. Need to turn the heat up straight away.

Gonna want tech 2 ASAP to keep ahead in this game, which mean I need to tech accordingly. With my hand as it is, I’m unlikely to get my tech 2s before T5 if I tech them before T3. Which will be about the same time as he get his (and with garth thats pretty gaurnteed). If I play two cards then I’m d1d3 with 4 left in deck, good odds for a Tech 2 to be in my second hand… Lets risk it

Shadow_Night_Black · February 9, 2018, 10:43pm

I would like to point out that happened in our first game, your Haunt lived to T2 before dying! And you’ve managed a P1T1 Haunt in all three games!

zhavier · February 10, 2018, 2:19am

You are quite right! Nullcraft is a pretty required play against these decks.

Thoughts

And now one of the more counter intuiitve Tech 2 blood defences, Patrol nothing. Patrolling fargo just means he can kill 2 things with 1 attack, so little point.

And now Maths. With 8 gold Crashbarrow + Max Quince = 9 gold, so safe for 1 more turn. For him to kill Hyperion + Tech 2 needs Crashbarrow + glider, but then I break his and I am in a better shape. Patrolling Fargo makes that need 1 of Crashbarrow + 2 Glider or double Barrow, so that may be the better play. Very likely Distortion/ Tric next turn, but that require tech 2 to play geiger…

my next turn is gonna kinda suck. we shall see. this turn, I can mirror barrow if I glider to kill vir. alternately, I can play necro glider barrow, but that means leaving his tech 2 or Hyperion alive. Yea way better to mirror barrow even though it doesn’t give me much for next turn.

After this game, can we see what happens if I hadn’t listened to my gut and had actually not patrolled the fargo as I suggested in my thoughts?

zhavier · February 11, 2018, 3:11am

We can step back for curiosity sake, I don’t mind. It does remind me of my bet with macciatus and lookout, in some ways.

Well, I could kill Geiger with Bloodlust, maybe even kill Geiger AND Prynn. Withe Geiger out of the way for a bit, I would be much safer next turn, so no matter what, he has to die. Drakk BL Garth + Skeleton, 7g. quince and garth kill Geiger, mid drakk, Skeleton gets frenzy and kils Prynn, but that leaves me with a dead Garth from BL and defending with a max Drakk with a wounded quince, not a great position. If there was any way to get the levels to Garth and summon a barrow… But not with this hand and gold.

Thoughts

I am having a conundrum deciding who and what to kill here. in the past he leans heavily on Geiger spells, to great effect. a pumped voidstar now! is too much gold, even with Scav. Geiger bouncing Hyperion or tricycloid, that’s plausible, with maxband or TD. if I kill Nullcraft, that just encourages tricycloid to clear my patrol. kill neo and Hyperion or trike kills my patrol and possibly TD to break more things, maybe even also maxband Geiger to have 3 hyperions hit me. I think this patrol miniizes the chances of getting hit by 3 hyperions in a single turn.
