I really didn’t want to meet Nekoatl, my draft Sensei, in the first few rounds…He knows me well, I going to have to tweak things a bit.

Thoughts

Phew looks like Nekoatl didn’t draw Tech II cards last turn, that means he has them in hand. Should I boot camp Bigby and take down Tech II? Hmm…what if he has Arrest in hand…I’m leaning towards to taking Bigby instead so at least no Injunction next turn… I might regret not taking Tech II after seeing Rememberer, Seer and Ray? or Prynn might Origin Story Vandy. Still think Bigby should be taken out.

GG! I was scared you were going to land Tech II units in T4 because I didn’t really have a good answer to cheap Past units. I assume you had a bad draw, if wasn’t that I would have been in trouble… Good game! Your Law/Past is a scary thing. Tried hard to keep your teching under control.
