[BALANCE TESTING] FrozenStorm (Black + Vandy Ban) vs NekoAtl (Blue)

Right everything still more or less does the same things, and I always had more than enough gold to do them before, it’s just that now I have to actually commit to a decision and don’t get to eat my cake and have it too. It’s 2-hero meta or it’s tech 2, instead of 3-hero meta and tech 2.

My Thoughts

Teching a Voidblocker and the other DnD… I’m going to want to do one of those 2 next turn. Most likely I’m Shadow Blade + Tech up + Attack but we’ll see.

Well I drew the Voidblocker… that kind of discourages me from teching up, plus I think Blade + Imp + clear the board leaves Neko on two cards and almost no chance to block DnD. Sounds like a plan, but JIC I’ll do the other DP to see if I can carrion curse instead of Imp

No CC, okay Imp + clear as planned!
