Fire - Blood - Demonology: Frightening. Want to avoid Pillage. Hardened Mox followed up by Battle Suits in the second turn seems viable.

I always feel that Red or Red heavy deck is imbalanced against purple. It does not even makes a difference if p1 or p2. only nullcraft is a bit annoying. Let’s see maybe unity finds a way. I think I will keep it simple and go for blood bace race. maybe he gives me with present the card draw possibilities or I will bring later vandy.

@Unity’s turn!

Is Moby going for Frenzy with Drakk? Could be tempting. In this case an Origin Story would be helpful. And should I keep 1 gold? If he is Pillaging, it will cost him a card. I should be fine next turn with 6 Gold also.

I bring the small cb, an underestimated card, which I can use very well later. let’s see if unity plays an aggressive or defensive turn 3. I think I am fine with both. he should not dare to patrol too risky due to lobber.

Drakk with Frenzy 1, Lobbers, Madman, Rambaster. I don´t like to go down in handsize, but that is too dangerous. Not sure if I should allow Moby to potenially pillage or invest in a Tech Lab? But if he teched Lobbers he can potentially play three units, even if he builds Tech II, maybe in this case pillaging is hurting his handsize, too? And I would like to keep the option to play a worker, Tech II and a potential Stewardess in case he doesn´t or can´t pillage. I really don´t like Pillage. Post draw: No Stewardess - bummer.

@Moby_Dick `s turn.

Edit: 1 damage to my base.

I considered that move from unity as worst case and my answer as acceptable. still annoying because you don’t want it to happen. and I did not consider bottom deck a small cb…

Incoming? Very hard to keep balance against Blood. If he comes through with 2 Crashbarrows I cannot hold Tech II. So I will also tech a Tech 1 defence unit. Maybe Immortal can give me some air to breathe, protecting it with Vortoss Emblem on a Stewardess against potential Kidnapping? Or should I try to slow him down with Slow-Time Generator, which was one of the reasons why I teched a second Stewardess: Stall his Tech II units and remove his Tech 0 units with the Stewardesses. But then again: I was hoping for Fire or Demonology: Blood Units are fairly cheap. I still could bring more expensive units with Promise of Payment, but I don´t know if I can stand the heat long enough. I could go on: there are just so many threats with Blood. Post draw: No Argonaut, no Slow-Time Generator - bummer. Hoping for the Technician and/or Vir.

Second not ideal hand in a row. Doesn´t make it easier. I really would like to kill Drakk but I´m one point short. That could become bloody. An which hero should I sideline? Drakk is dangerous because of Bloodlust and Frenzy. Vandy´s Sparkshot is annoying, too. Pfff.

OS requires prynn.

You´re right, have to redo. How to do that correctly? I peeked with Vir…

13

@FrozenStorm @charnel_mouse - I’m not sure how to redo with the peek. Can you please jump in?

14

Don’t overcomplicate it. I don’t care. Just play Prynn if you want.

15

In this case just redo your turn such that it is legal in the end and then redraw your hand accordingly. Thanks Moby, that makes things way simpler.
