Bloodburn does not have haste, so you couldn’t use it here
…ugh, sorry. Also, I only just registered that it has an exhaust requirement.
Editing the turn, not much will change; only difference is that you keep Merfolk Prospector.
friendly reminder that all of my units have resist 1 because of Calamandra btw

I think at this point I’ve lost way too much momentum, and there’s no chance I can keep Zane maxbanded long enough for Max Anarchy, so gg!
Decided to try another spec this time, just to see how it goes, and I think it was a mistake to do that while also learning how to play Red as second player, which also feels hard because you have to steal the initiative to get anything done. Fire seems like it’s the more straightforward answer to Green, in general, because you can pop Jaina out and drop a Fire removal spell on the board.
Yeah, my biggest issue with the red starter is how hard it is to play as second player. Against green I’ll usually try to overwhelm them at T1 with drakk or else beat them on tech (with either Molting Firebird, Blood T2, or a push for gunships).

I feel like Calamandra in particular is a hard hero to answer as Red going second. Definitely feels weird, but I guess trying to turtle might be the best resource there, because yeah, Blood T2 has some really nice answers. If I’m able to keep tech buildings safe, I could even see going all in on hasted Land Octopus courtesy of haste-granting spells. It’s like a two-card Crashbarrow that I can keep around (by wrecking my economy) if I want.
yep. We could switch colors if you wanted to give it a shot as green. Your call
Sorry, haven’t been around the site for a while! I’m interested in trying it out as green; who goes first?
No problem. It’s your turn to go first. As an aside, I’ll be on vacation for most of the rest of this week, so I will be slow or not available to play.

Just checking, but if you patrol your wisp in technician, if I kill it you’ll have to shuffle before codexing cards in. Do you want to leave the patrol as is?
Yep, I’m good with that. Weighed it as one of my options.
ok, cool
