Also, question I couldn’t find the answer to anywhere: Are the entangling vines affected by Rook’s death? I assume not, because the nest explicitly says it is and this doesn’t, but I could be wrong.

11

nullc cannot be targeted by buff spells so that playis illegal.

for ur question, no they do not. Is an attachment like spirit of the panda, not a channeling spell.

Oh, what a silly mistake. I’ve fixed it above

13

Yeah, Flagbearers shut down Growth pretty hard. They don’t keep their flag if you turn them into a squirrel, at least.

I’ll have my turn up in ~2 hrs.

Alright, I think I’m cooked here. Excellently played, and made very clear how complicated this all is. I’d be up for another match if you’re interested; my random number was 18

16

Good game!

Since you lost game 1, you get to choose if want to go first or second, and/or if you want to change specs. I’ll stick with monowhite unless you’d rather try playing against a different color. (I’m trying to learn each color, so I really don’t mind.)

17

Ok, great! Thanks for being so generous; I’d like to try Past/Law/Peace. I’ll go first, just to get things going.
