Now that I have 3 heroes, it’s best to kidnap, attack with and then sacrifice his units for Doom Grasp, I suppose, if I can pull that off. I also need to be careful to not leave any hasty units around (looking at you, Drakk) because of his Mimics and MoLaC. With that in mind, I kinda wish I hadn’t workered the Javelineer, as I could have played him first to use up the haste, then sacrificed him to draw a card. Or, I suppose, I could just suppress his Tech II building, maybe? I guess I can also make the Resurrectors hasty, as in the worst case scenario, I can sacrifice them even if all my heroes are in play, though that’s kind of wasteful. I think I’ll go with that plan.

A bit fed up… How can I lose this?! :sob:

I suppose I’ve been really lucky with drawing spells at opportune times this game, but honestly MoLaC isn’t really threatening without haste unless you fully charge it during the turn you play it.

I guess there’s no harm in letting the Pandas add 2 more charges to MoLaC, especially if I can suppress deployment of more units going forward.

27

Just realized: second drakk should be Arg :wink:

BTW: of course only fed up with my play, not the opponent!

Yeah, I originally planned something different for that turn, and mistakenly thought I already removed that clause from my spreadsheet. Whoops.

OK, gg here @FrozenStorm

Wp!

Regarding molac: teched it in when I thought I get a few flyers you can’t do too much about… Thought molac could charge while I pick off your units and heroes from air

Not a bad plan, but I felt very threatened by Calamandra and your Balance units, so I prioritized spells over units. If I’d taken a more standard approach, I probably wouldn’t have been able to deal with your strategy. GG WP.

yeah, giving the untargetable ability from my basilisk to mimics didn’t work out somehow… had that in mind to protect myself against doom grasp and kidnapping. but first i drew the basilisk early and had to throw it away, then you just killed it :cry:

Just as a heads up, jandra is not a hero and don’t grant levels.

GG WP to you both!

Oops… Sry for that… Anyway I lost. :slight_smile: as a defense: I played in the middle of the night from a hospital bed with my tablet on one side and my two weeks old daughter sleeping and waking to demand milk in a high frequency on the other side

Heh, I’m sure no-one is blaming you. It’s only a friendly tournament after all. Family comes first!
