Got a bit lucky there with the injunction, so let’s make the most of it. Protect my Tech 2, and lay down big illusions next turn with an eye towards tech 3 very soon.

Think

Rather unfortunate to draw Injunction off the reshuffle, but that’s life. I think my position is kinda fine here. Gotta put in my gryphons next turn, and build tech 3 before reshuffle. Let’s see if this resist will actually help or not…

Discard

Think

With this, he should be 1 damage short of lethal. So he probably just board clears and kills tech 2 and I lose next turn when I fail to rustle up a good enough defence.

52

I’m losing confidence in my turns from multiple errors but I think I can finish by Baron with Soul killing SQL and Elite, Baron killing Tech and Scav, Executioner killing Lookout and I can do exactly 7 damage to base with Vandy Orpal and Haunt.

53

Yeah looks like you’re right. I tried counting your lethal but looks like I miscounted

Hmm I just really don’t know how to deal with barons, and heroes are oppressive as ever.
Got any tips for me?

55

Yea, black is my biggest fear as blue. I can’t think of an answer to the backline heroes. Doesn’t blue have none? I mostly try to not lose board control early game and power thru the patrol in attempt to remove the backline sorcerers. It only works sometimes though. As to Barons, I’m not sure if I had successfully dealt with it before but hypothetically arrest or injunction sound effective against those 4 drops.

56

I mean I injunctioned two of them but it didn’t really help…

Oh well, back into the grind. Gotta try new things I guess. I wish Musketeer was buffed, it’s still such an awful card.

I think long arrange while 2 atk or less would do it. It allows interaction with boot camp and elite training but prevents it from being too massive.
