@zango

@FrozenStorm the turn for me that threw me was when you left my tech 2 up on your T4, but then the most useful card in my hand is not the two hyperions but the forgotten fighter… is why my brain was saying “things have gone wrong, you should be behind” for the next two turns (admittedly redrawing the second hyperion probably should have shaken me out of that lol)

GG WP! Breaking the tech2 on turn 4 would have required skipping worker and definitely didn’t feel like something I could keep up. Calculated risk was it was unlikely you’d unload on that turn and thought I’d set up flying Basilisk for a better break the next turn. The FF was indeed the MVP there, might have a chance to keep the Tech2 at bay without that.
