pinging this. no rush at all.

Mate, sorry for the long delay, things have been hectic, to put it mildly. But I’m thankful we have Codex to keep us grounded during these troubled times.

Well, I think maybe a tower is the go? It’ll counter Nullcraft, help with Plasmo, and generally beef up wisps etc.

Typically mid level Cal would be getting whipped out here, but Nullcraft can ping with impunity and there’s not too much point to reset to all units until next turn.

Mmm, full force Present turn in coming - and codexnewb has the magic number of coins to spend on it over there. But I think this patrol essentially nullifies all options. Hyperions lose to swift detahtouches and Tricycloids are prohibitively expensive. They could shoot for a tech building, but I don’t think that’d slow me down too much. Probably just break the tower? We’ll see.

Tech III AND Tech Lab gives me many choices of what to break here. I reckon Ebbflow Archon is the biggest threat, so breaking the Lab is what I’m going to put my money on I think. And conveniently that only has 4 hit points so it’s a bit easier to get at.

Immortal! And was Past just a feint? Is Octavian actually coming?! Surprises abound.

Teching in a Polymorph to counter both Immortal and Octavian.

I think clearing the board here works in my favour. It’s going to really fill up my discard pile, but there are some tasty cards in there to draw, so I’ll have to hope to get a bit lucky. Tech II break will (hopefully) limit codexnewb’s options significantly. Still really not really expecting to see Octavian…

Whoa - great catch! So I think (by taking some more damage) I can rearrange things for close to the same outcome.

Instead of:

Potent Basilisk deathtouches Fargo, takes 2 damage.
Calamandra slays Hyperion, takes 4 damage, you draw 1.
Mimic breaks the Tech Lab, your base to 18

We can do this:

Mimic hastily kills Fargo, takes 2 damage (mimicing Hyperion’s Haste).
Potent Basilisk deathtouches Hyperion, takes 4 damage, you draw 1.
Calamandra breaks the Tech Lab, your base to 18.

In fact, it looks like I started to go down that line as I have 2 damage against Mimic instead of against Basilisk (though the actual health values recorded were correct).

Which means the board state you’d be facing going into your T6 would have been the same, except Mimic would have been (4/42, Haste Untargetable, 2 damage) and Potent Basilisk (3/31, Deathtouch, Untargetable, 4 damage).

So the question is would those changes have been enough for you to play your turn differently? I’m happy to unwind and play from there, or scrub this game and start over, or just play on with current state - up to you.

Plasmodium not “in play” as it’s still Forecasted. Mimic can only copy effects of units that are “in play”.
