+20/+20 to everything! HAH! The hard part is activating the later MoLaCs without accidentally killing the opponent!

Opponent counterplays the Quad-LaC dream by not rebuilding techs, HAVE to kill base :_(
No such thing as a draw in the standings, but nothing is stopping a pair of players from agreeing to not play MoLaC at the start of a game.

Would the agreement be enforced by judges if it were made though?

My hastier setup means Iāll get a whole turn with activated MoLaC before his kicks in. Not a huge advantage though as he can block with low cost units for that turn. Once both MoLaCs are active, his deck beats mine for gold and card efficiency in generating units (Garth->Skeletons, Lichās Bargain, Panda, etc), so advantage swings to him pretty soon.
Option 1:
- MoLaC
- midband Rook, play out Zane and Mad Man
- Rook and Mad Man kill his Rook (2 levels on Zane)
- my Birds trade with his SQL Bird
- Zane kills a Skeleton, activating MoLaC
He plays MoLac, attacks my buildings with Garth + 3 units for 4 runes, and spends his remaining $5 on blockers e.g. Arg/Wisp + Panda/Wisp + Skeleton = 9-body board (yikes!) vs my 4 (Rook, Zane and 2 arrival-fatigued Birds). I also donāt get the gold/card efficient max Arg play as Iām using both Hero slots with Zane/Rook. Possible techs in this line are Vines (entangle his remaining Bird, leaving my two free to hit Base) or Thunderclap (sideline his non-flying Tokens and cheap units, hope this lines up with Sharks for a lethal).
Option 2:
- MoLaC
- Rook and midband Zane kill his Rook, Zane maxes to kill SQL Bird
- my Birds kill his remaining Bird and a Skeleton
- Mad Man trades with a Skeleton, activating MoLaC
- build Tech Lab Anarchy
He lands 2 runes on MoLaC (Garth, Prospector), and has the draw + $2 scav bonuses to set up the big body-number advantage. At least in this line Iāve an attack-ready Bird that will be unopposed until his Birdās Nest comes round again, can max Arg next turn for 3 bodies, and go into the Base race with hasty stealthy Anarchy units.
With time not on my side, think my chances are better with Option 2 ā it gives me 8 out of the 12 cards in the coming cycle dealing hasty damage of some sort. So going for that with 2xDisguised Monkeys teched.

Iām not sure it matters that much, but shouldnāt Zane be 9/9?

Good game, thanks.
I had really good luck throughout (good opening split, Vines lining up with Ironbark, redrawing Birdās Nest after T3 reshuffle), would have been very close otherwise. Think your deckās unit generation would have won out in a longer game.
