Not that it changes anything, but he attacked a skeleton so he wouldnt be patrolling.

Worst possible teching, as the only thing that could happen would be Garth back casting some spells, but even that shouldnât stop Crashbarrow exhumations.

And with that, I will concede. Good game. You absolutely trounced me. That was my first run-in with a Necro / Blood / XXX deck. I knew largely what to expect, but just not how to stop it.
GG !
I was surprised by your turns 2 and 3. Maxbanding Vandy just for killing Quince (and trading Imp with Javelineer, with me gaining a patrolling bonus) looked like a waste of gold; it also offered me an option to counter-tech quite early against that, even if my draw never let me use Nether Drain.
You were unlucky to draw no teched card on T3, but maybe going down on cards on T2 wasnât necessary - my Pestering Haunt wasnât really fearsome was it ?
Good luck for your next games
