Resist 1 on all units is actually super painful. Stewardess just got priced out. Even maxbanding Prynn to trash the tiger would is a bit too expensive. Here comes some green buffs to romp through my patrollers…

Wow! Those are some good units to use with Feral Strike!

I will have to concede the game there - GGWP! I am holding Rewind but I’m $2 short of playing it, and I don’t think I’ll be able to prevent lethal next turn.

Up for another? Your turn as P1.

Thoughts

OK, I don’t think there’s anyway I can safely play a hero here. If I patrol Tinkerer, then he can midband Cal and discard two cards to stealth past my patroller and assasinate, maxing Cal. Not a big deal if he goes down on hand size to pull it off because tigers will be coming straight out of the codex. And it’s T3 before I can hope to get Origin Story in my hand. So… NO CAPES!

This is a pretty awkward opening hand really. I think Tinkerer patrolling in Technician and Battle Suits is the best play. If he kills Tinkerer then at least I’m back up to full hand size, and if not, then I can tinker with stuff. Nullcraft has no immediate effect at the moment, and the threat of Nullcraft may actually be stronger than the playing of it.

With the possibility of Rampant Growth and/or levelling Cal my patrollers aren’t going to survive. So I may as well collect gold + card. I’m going to want to get pretty lucky with my draws here…

He musta whiffed pretty hard there. I guess SQL Argonaut is fairly tanky, but didn’t expect to get by unscathed.

Well Prynn + Origin Story seems like a good value play.

What to do with the remaining 2 though? I could play Fargo, but I don’t need the defence (for once) and it’d be nice not to go down even further on hand size. Might be best just to float.

And a rare free shot with Nullcraft… where to go? I guess when in doubt hitting the base is the best idea.
