Well, not like id have many other options after viewing his hand so might as well avoid reshuffling with lawful search and have a gryphon still in my deck. The aim is to kill prynn with a stolen tricycloid i think, after she yoinks my gryphon next turn, might switch to tower if needed too

So I kill the Gryphon as planned, build a huge Tech I threat and turn this into a base race. Realistically he has to respond to that with Judgement Day or with Injunction on my Tech I. That should leave me the option of Tech II to smack him about either from hand or via Garth. An extra TD will maximise my burst and Gryphon killing potential here.

Ngl i thought it was over until my first useful surplus draw this game! woooo

That will do it!! Very GG and very WP @dwarddd! Community service was absolutely clutch in this matchup. In hindsight it was a mistake to tech in a Tech II before Garth was ready (or maybe even to use Present at all) but I completely forgot about it existing until you played it the first time!

Insurance agents also probably a joint MVP. You got so much value out of them

@zango you may cease popcorn eating

Tbh this 22% community service draw was a bit a bummer in turns of nail biting finish, but it has been a very interesting and intense game to spectate on. Thank you very much to both of you!

It was a very lucky closer - it turned what i think was a sure loss into a likely win, the second injunction from the agents then sealed it!

I’ll take it though having missed an 83% chance, before i tapped bigby too, of gryphon-or-free speech i wanted on turn 8 that would have been a big swing

That was one of the funnest Blue games ive ever played though so thank you for playing!! The number of Gryphon answers you had was sure infuriating
