I welcome all criticism and suggestions! Itās just that - improving my play is not my only object in playing (this is not work after all), and so Iām pretty happy to play around. I know that many Sirlin fans are all about āplay to winā and such (a good book, for sure), and sometimes I like to play that way as well. but with Codex Iām still exploring the world, and looking for unusual plays that may work, honing my own instincts. The forums are fine and all but I feel like Iām running against the boundaries of the medium as I donāt really remember all the cards and continuously looking them up is very tedious when Iām trying to play even a bit more serious.

Autocard Anywhere definitely helps with that, but youāre right that it takes a lot of repetition to get a good handle on the particulars of everything youāre likely to run up against.
Iām all about playing around myself (not a strict playing to win disciple, though certainly I appreciate that mentality for tournament play). So like I said, I donāt mean to be hyper-critical. Goofing and experimenting is certainly welcome here

Autocard anywhere is awesome, but my problem is typically not necessarily with cards in play but with cards in hand (autocard doesnāt work for me in sheets, for some reason) and with considering cards in codex, or being aware of possibilities (in your deck, codex, or hand). Cards that have been played but are now goen (is it 2 gold? 3? how expensive is it exactly to max each hero. etc.) which just takes time to really sink in.
I never considered AA not working in the sheet lol! I suppose that I donāt notice it since I mostly take my turns via the forum, and really only use the spreadsheet to manage card draw and deck/discard state.
If I donāt remember what a card does, I usually just type it into my tech choices blank, and then use the preview window on the right here to hover over it and see the AA preview.

It sucks for mobile, but really isnāt hard at all for me personally on my laptop. I have a copy paste buffer on my Macbook, Flycut, that allows me to go back 40 copy pastes.
Iāve considered overriding the spreadsheet to just conform to my turn structure, but just havenāt taken the time. The script is a lot of string building that isnāt easy to write over
I finally understand why sometimes to have a copy paste a turn over an old one. I was very confused as to why that would ever happen. I do like how your version uses the split screen feature of writing draft posts for the forums.
To be honest, if anyone is putting any work into rewriting the script I would probably put it into making the spreadsheet on a website thatās more user-friendly. I donāt expect anyone to spend any time this way but just saying - if anyone were to spend time, thatās what I would think is best to spend time on.

Happy to play again whenever, just lmk what youād like to play!
Iāll play mono-red against whatever. I donāt know it very well so feel free to play around with whacky decks. I rolled 98 so I guess Iāll go first?
Iāll play mono green, I like the standard matchup

Oops, Zane isnāt midband so I donāt draw. I didnāt use that card so let me just think how it affects my turn.
Edit: I redid my turn. Edited over the previous post. Should be good now.

Well he got a little too much pressure there, but it cost him cards. Putting Tiny B in SQL so no lobber kills, and Centaur in Techn so Zane is less likely to get a card off his death. If he were to move Tiny B with his maxband then attack centaur (and thus, break his units through for a tech building kill), that would really suck, but oh well. No other way for him to break through this defense so grabbing tech 2 units and hoping to tech up next turn
[/details]
Note that your base is at 15 because the Crash Bomber dealt it 1 damage while dying last turn (which is a shame, should have gone for your tech 1).
That Zane technician draw came out niceā¦
