Seems like my deck is rune-spam and my opponent’s is extreme gold-efficiency. There are a lot of potential buildings worth using Nature Reclaims on, but I’ll have to see how the opponent plays.

Hold up. James doesn’t have Strength, he can’t play Rook.

James · October 18, 2019, 3:03pm

Aaah oh my bad, I will restart sorry about that, I have just played against strength 3 times in a row or something and forgot other white specs exist

If he’s going Skeletons, I want scary things that can bypass them… especially if he’s not building a Tech I, because Lich’s Bargain may be incoming.

What shall I collect - bones or taxes? The tax collector will hopefully negate some of the merfolk advantage.

You’ll have to pay the $1 multicolor penalty if you want Garth to cast Grappling Hook.

James · October 19, 2019, 9:02pm

Aack. OK, I guess no skeleton for me.

You should mark your tech building HP in the spreadsheet so they show up in the Buildings section of your posts.

Bryce_The_Rice · October 20, 2019, 2:19pm

No no, he just stole that.

James · October 20, 2019, 3:09pm

Oh so I did! I’ve withdrawn my turn for now since you spent all of your gold so will have to change something If you saw it before I did so then not sure what to do, I guess we’ll ask the judges.

Nekoatl · October 20, 2019, 3:59pm

Fixed my turn. In forum tournaments, players are considered to be responsible for verifying their opponent’s turn is legal before replying to it, and any knowledge gained from a post that has to be withdrawn or corrected is fair to use (however, any randomized event during an edited turn, such as a card draw, must be re-randomized so the editing player can’t use that foreknowledge when deciding how to play their turns). In this case, I didn’t see your post before you withdrew it, so worry not.

Great, thanks

Current game plan - tech III law for the win. This remains the plan. However, juggernaut pressure would be nice.

Legion · October 20, 2019, 10:25pm

attack and patrol? no way

James · October 20, 2019, 10:30pm

Bleurgh sorry. I’ll just not patrol and will redraw my hand.

Nekoatl · October 20, 2019, 10:46pm

Garth is midband at level 4. I see you paid enough gold but noted him as level 3 instead of 4. Also, your base should be at 18 HP from losing a tech building. I’m assuming you rebuilt it even though you didn’t mention it in your list of turn actions.
