Random Map/Deck Bonanza: YoungBuck and FrozenStorm

Codex Codex play-by-forum
93

I was rereading the wording on feral strike, and was wondering: it doesn’t say anything about tech requirements like Garth’s ability. Perhaps on that map, feral strike isn’t quite as awesome as it seems? The map doesn’t actually give you the tech buildings, just says you meet tech requirements without the buildings.

94

I wondered that as well (in addition to ability to cast ultimate spells) but figured the spirit of the map is that tech and hero requirements for any card wordings just don’t apply

95

Great discussion on rules. I tend to agree that erratta shouldnt be taken as tournament rules, but for our purposes (and because I win :slight_smile: ) I think its cool to use them for these wacky, wacky maps.

Anyway, on with the show!

Hmm this is going to be a more standard game, but I have some interesting tech options to go for. I have to be concerned with Basilisks though, all my upgrades like battle suits, MoLaC, Second chanes are all vulernable. Growth Peace and go for Blooming Elm/Ancient along with Sarge Garrisons? Past Peace with Garrisions to go for total unit overload with Seers, Cadets, and a slow time generator?

He has the strong heroes, with lots of nasty combos. He could counter any heroe strategies I have withe Free Speech too. Tough decisions!

Maybe I’ll try for a quick tech 1 next turn with Lawful Search? I think I’ll probably be comboing Tech 2 of Truth and Balance? Basilisk kills a lot of the buildings or upgrades he’ll likely want to use, Truth units are tough for his heroes to deal with in general.

Tech 2 hounds and take a 40% roll I get Hound, 60% I play both of them next turn. And I hit on 40%! Very good stuff, I’ll be incredibly well poised to get a Reteller Macciatus machine rolling and use a Potent B to counter his upgrade and building focused tech 2. This should be fun!

Continuing forward, Arg is going to midband to pop one of my hounds I’m sure so I’m just going to make that as disadvantageous as possible for him. Midori can buff the hounds, which is awesome, next turn I’ll tech probably Mimic + Potent B, and I should be able to quickly build a scary board! Either I’ll go for Dreamscape or Liberty Gryphons to end things :slight_smile:

Woof, nasty blowout X-( Grabbing a Potent B as it is pretty clear the goal will be battle suits and peace machine, but also getting a Free Speech in case he pivots to Oni maxband rush or something (plus it’ll help defend the Arg midband toe-snipes…)

The struggle drawing cards is real! Why can’t I reach this damn reteller!?! Shell up best I can I guess, continue to try and apply card advantage, but ugh I’m going to lose Macciatus and continue to get Arg toe-sniped… Potent B will provide a good wall in front at least…

Alright a good break for me. I could have tried to take both heroes here instead, but I feel like all that would buy me is a turn off of free speech if he teched it and a few freee levels for Arg or Oni, neither of which I am terribly attached to right now.

Thinking I go for peace machine + some Shimmer rays for air support, Can get 6 dmg off with them quickly and can keep them around with the extra draws I get from Garrison, could even Sarge them up for more dmg

Okay I think I’m safe here to go tech 3 next turn, probably, so we’ll play for that. Kill Oni so there’s less target pops, we’ll still probably lose both hounds but at least he’ll have to give up his board to do it. As long as there’s no immediate garrison (could be, don’t know how he teched) then we proceed. If he does garrison, we’ll have to stay tech 2 for a cycle probably.

I’m pretty well screwed here, his past peace machine is going to bowl me over. I didn’t get the reteller down when I needed to, so his card advantage has just wasted my ability to keep stuff down. Probably should have first gone with reteller + potent B, then macciatus. Oh well…

Technician draw was not Bird’s Nest, and you likely can get access to stampede anyway, so I think this is game.

Nicely done! Bottom decking reteller on turn 4 absolutely sunk me, I needed that to keep you from killing tech 2 on turn 5 :_( this was fun though! Big fan of this map

GG bro!

Yeah I hit some good draws later on. Didnt have Stampede yet, but was planning on Teching it this next turn

Also big fan of this map! Opens up some interesting combos without feelin ridiculously OP right out of the gate. Really increases the complexity of the game, but feels kind of like when you finally get to the RTS map that allows you access to all of your buildings and units!

Really not a lot of downsides to this one! Can’t think of any ridiculously OP set ups on this one can you?

I think Past Peace is pretty strong on it, but that’s reasonably well established :wink:

111

Yes, but Past Peace is ptreey strong overall haha Adn the barrier to Past Peace on the noraml map is really just 2g more right?

The barrier is also foregoing tower, which can be killer in some matchups.
