Haven’t played this deck before. Plan is to make the most of strong Tech1 units (Bone Collectors, Tiny Basilisks, Hooded Executioners), follow up with a Balance plan, rush for Gunships, or stay at Tech1 with pressure from Zane or Lich’s Bargains.

OH MY GOODNESS. I’m so sorry. i copied it over and meant to change to Strength. I would Like to play Finesse, Strength, Discipline. Please let me know if that affects your turn at all. I’m so sorry.
Finesse-White deck means I’m down the multi-colour penalty to add to the P1 vs P2 econ disadvantage, don’t enjoy those situations.
Interesting play to drop a -1/-1 rune on Garth. Assuming he’ll follow up with Birds, I’ll have the awkward choice of leaving Garth vulnerable or levelling up a weakened hero. So teching a Taxman for anti-air, as well as a Tiny Basilisk to threaten his hero.
In multi-color matches, the first building you build for the game costs one additional gold (i.e. tech 1 costs 2 gold). Page 12 of rulebook "The catch is that if your heroes are more than one color, the first tech building or add-on you build costs 1 extra gold. (Neutral heroes from the starter set don’t count as being a color, so you won’t pay the extra gold with a team of red / red / neutral but you would with red / red / green.) "
Let me know if this affects your turn or team construction.
Yes, my deck is multicolour (1 gold penalty for first building) and your deck counts as mono-colour (no penalty). Leaves you with a decent economy advantage as P2.
Good T3 draw with both Tech1s. Continue to tech good Tech1 units (Bone Collector, second Basilisk). See whether he takes Rook directly to max here, or plays Twins or Bird’s. Building quite a Skeleton presence here, can look to buff later with Midori midband, but also have to watch out for Discord taking them all out at once.

Get Paid + float - ($8)
Garth makes a Skeleton - ($7)
Garth suicides into SQL, Rook to lvl 3
Midori, to mid (Skeletons now 2/2) - ($1)
Skeleton and Haunt trade with SQL
2 Skeletons trade with Rook, Midori to lvl 7
Taxman kills Flagbearer
Worker - ($0)
Haven’t been able to make value trades so far, and am slipping behind on econ. So rather than build Tech2 this turn, am bringing in midband Midori to get value trades from 3 buffed Skeletons, and threaten flying hero next turn. Also gets rid of Rook, so he won’t get immediate use from his heroes hall spend.
Teching another Tech1 unit (Executioner) plus Moment’s Peace. Will aim to build Anarchy Tech2+3 next 2 turns, and go for Gunships under shelter of Moment’s Peace.

Max Midori will be a pain, but no flying on my turn will make him difficult to keep out. I knew he was going to midband Midori to boost Skeletons. Bummer I didn’t draw Discord sooner. Oh well, that’s how it goes.

Glad to have used the old Skeletons before Discord hit. Building Anarchy Tech2 and teching Gunships. Moment’s Peace in next hand, will give a good chance to build Tech3.

Can’t get to Midori this turn. Without a buff, he can’t get at either Rook or Grave. I’ll have to hope he doesnt have 2 Stealth Monkey’s and a Chameleon Lizzo. Taking out his Tech 2 next turn is major priority, but so is Midori. These next two turns will probably decide the game.
