MMM1 - Warm Up - Red (codexnewb) vs Green (charnel_mouse)

charnel_mouse · April 27, 2020, 3:30pm

P2T7

Starting hand: 4

Spore Shambler
Playful Panda
Moment’s Peace
Merfolk Prospector

Thoughts

Decent split on Moment’s Peace, let’s see if I can cheese out a base kill here. Trying for a Final Showdown, since we’re still in warmup. Calamandra stays on backline at level 1, so she can’t be sniped with most Fire spells and she doesn’t cancel Midori’s aura, which would kill the Wisp.

Teched cards: 2

T2: Centaur, Galina Glimmer
T3: Artisan Mantis, Giant Panda
T4: Giant Panda, Moment’s Peace
T5: Might of Leaf and Claw, Moment’s Peace

Get paid - ($10)
Moment’s Peace, your units can’t attack, mine can’t patrol - ($8)
Maxband Midori - ($5)

Midori hits your base down to 14, takes 1 damage
Discard 3, draw 3, reshuffle, draw 2

Calamandra L1 2/3
Artisan Mantis 4/3 (2 damage)

Legion · April 27, 2020, 4:47pm

it’s free too though

codexnewb · April 27, 2020, 5:18pm

nope, i dont. i think that will be GG then.

dang! so well played with the moments peace(s). definitely learned a lot that game.

im down for a few more practice rounds before we get started. P1 to you.

charnel_mouse · April 27, 2020, 5:23pm

GG! Moment’s Peace into Midori base race is one of my favourite ways to win with Green, it feels like you cheated away a victory Pretty close with all those Bugblatter + Commander effects, though! I’ll start a new game tomorrow.

Bryce_The_Rice · April 27, 2020, 5:36pm

I think I’m blind, I don’t see the guaranteed win. If newb puts the commander in squad leader, charnel can’t activate molac without killing his own base. Final showdown leaves you 1 short. Where’s the lethal?

charnel_mouse · April 27, 2020, 5:41pm

I just suicide Argagarg to activate MoLaC. codexnewb would need to play a 1 HP unit from hand into a NoSQL patrol slot, so that Argagarg can’t attack without killing a unit.

codexnewb · April 27, 2020, 5:55pm

correct. no 1 hp unit to guarantee unit death. arg activates molac, midori flies over and kills my base.

Bryce_The_Rice · April 27, 2020, 5:56pm

Ah, I see. But any ephemeral would do the job too

codexnewb · April 27, 2020, 5:56pm

yep, and i dont have any in hand.

charnel_mouse · April 27, 2020, 5:56pm

Yeah, it’s only guaranteed from codexnewb’s point of view.

codexnewb · April 27, 2020, 5:57pm

it’s also a warmup, so im not too worried about it. definitely learned a lot about teching this route, etc…

charnel_mouse · April 27, 2020, 5:57pm

Yeah, I’d be surprised if I get away with this when we’re playing for real.

Game 2

P1T1

Starting Hand: 5

Tiger Cub
Playful Panda
Spore Shambler
Rich Earth
Forest’s Favor

Thoughts

Spore Shambler is too slow here if Ironbark Treant is my only 2±cost unit next turn, so we’re in a situation that I think makes the Green starter very awkward, especially against Red: hands that make it difficult to use all your float. I think I just go with Tiger Cub and hope for no Pillage, then I have Rampant Growth as an option.

Thoughts

Fine to take the even trade here, the trade’s likely to be much worse if I let codexnewb attack with the Ogre. That’s a lot of gold stockpiled, though, I wonder if there’s a Zane incoming. Or Fire spells? Zane can’t maxband if he brings along a friend, so if I stick the 2 HP Young Treant in SQL I should be OK to bring in Calamandra behind, unless he’s got Mad Man + Nautical Dog + Charge or something.
