Tech 2 Demonz eh? I need to generate pressure in a hurry to combat Zarra. Ninja is my fastest tech 2 but not necessarily effective against it. I’m going to go with Strength and a Doubling Barb (goes well with SP and Sensei’s Advice), and I’ll see what I can do from there. IPN is decent backup to the Barb eh?

Fine Fine, I’ll scoop. Sheesh, that was a really lucky draw.
Funny thing is, I don’t see any point in that match where deteriorate would have made any appreciable difference.

I take that back, p1t2 deteriorate woulda been game changing but it wasn’t even in hand.

It was a pretty lucky draw, but i had Vines, Reversal and Hidden Ninja (as well as Sensei’s Advice) that could have accomplished pretty similar turns (you would have kept the tech 1 in many of them, but still had an empty board against a beefy one)
I agree that deteriorate didn’t play a big roll here, nor would it have in many of the turns. This was a 5/5 matchup when @Bob199 and I played it though, so me winning two close ones in a row doesn’t seem like it has broken the matchup in favor of white. Want to play a few more to investigate further, or move on to other colors?

Going to stay aggressive, Jandra by herself is no threat to grave in SQL so flood the board and make him deteriorate to make any progress. Reversal and SP will keep the pressure high and the board scary.

I’m torn. On the one hand, keeping him completely devoid of board seems to be a winning strategy, and a Soul Stone or Nether Drain + Deteriorate in hand could make things really bad for me if I don’t wipe him out. On the other hand, I’d have to spend Hook or give up some of my board in order to do it. I think that’s probably worth it though? Yea, giving up Smoker seems worth it. Okay then. Teching Bird’s Nest and pre-teching a GN for some quick threat, if I feel like generating it.

If I die to Sickness + Spreading Plague so be it, I want to keep my sword rune in hopes that next turn it proves more useful. Otherwise, Grave’s safe and I tech up, might as well go Ninjas with GN already teched. He doesn’t know I’ll be whiffing it next turn
