Hopefully not in for beating, like I did in the last monomatch with face-fond Bansa. Calamandra opening seems fine when I have Merfold Prospector as a team. I guess Panda is better to worker than Cub as first player.

I’d normally go in on BRO, but I want to try Careless Musketeer in Elite instead. Either forces Rampant Growth, it trades with Merfolk, it eats Cal, or it gets a free kill on Merfolk

With a float like that, I’m guessing Carpe’s fishing for a scavenger kill? Prospector gives me the money to kill Musketeer and end with a 4/5 Calamandra. That’s stilll killable with Zane + hasted started units or a Scorch or something, but at the expense of leaving the Prospector alive and losing all the attackers, so I think I’d still be in good shape. Going to see if I can get a Centaur on the offensive, for a change.

Gotta do something about Cal. She is scary right now. Chaos Mirror could help, and with this setup Mouse at least has to dump cards into killing Zane.

No idea why Carpe’s got the Dog in Elite, maybe just to make me maxband Calamandra. Zane’s blatantly going to shove and kill the Centaur if I leave him alone, do I just want to kill him now? It puts me really down on cards, even if I bring out a Tiger next turn. Yeah, I do. Building a Heroes’ Hall just so I have no float to get Pillage-d.
What am I worried about? Kidnapping, but some Allies should help with that. Probably double-Lobber, but then the Centaur dies and I can still bring in a Tiger. Just going with Allies for now. Although Spirit of the Panda could be pretty good, too… I’ve got another turn before I reshuffle, so I’ll wait and see what Carpe does.

So yeah, this is not great. My best move is to hole up until I can bounce back. Cal can’t heal now, so she’ll die eventually.

Not bothered about Firebat. Not while Cal is alive, anyway. I’ve got a few options here:
- Put Rampant Growth on the Centaur to kill two patrollers, maybe attack with Cal too. Tech up, bring in Argagarg.
- Cal kills the Firebat, Centaur kills the others or just blocks. Lets me tech up and recover my hand.
- Cal summons a Tiger, summon Arg. Lets my hand recover, but I’m delaying Tech II when I don’t really need to.
Second option looks good. Do I want Midori instead of Argagarg? His midband will be easier to get to than Stampede for the frogs, even if he doesn’t help with anything else. Could always try for his maxband / Final Showdown, of course, and he’s better for combat. On the other hand, Spirit of the Panda can keep stuff alive to stay on offense, and I’m going to be able to play all my heroes pretty soon anyway. Oh, and Midori could just die if I block with him this turn, better to make use of Argagarg’s starter pet.
Which spec do I want? Feral or Growth are good with allies, for Gigadon and Ancients/MoLaC, respectively. Feral’s got the bigger units for making use of Feral Strike, I’ll go for that. I want big stuff for Ferocity anyway, right? Allies should help mitigate Kidnapping.
Not risking Feral Strike for techs, in case Carpe’s put some Flame Arrows in.

Looking BAD. I can summon Drakk at max (7), summon BRO (9), summon Mad Man, but that's…meh. I don't worker, I do clear Arg and the wisp. I can also summon Zane, kill the Wisp, and…charge a BRO, which is (4). But I hrm. Leaves me with 6 gold and very little to spend it on. Tech II, I guess. Hmm, maybe I can threaten a Tech II play with this. Not a huge fan of doing so little. Nvm, did my math wrong, can't get Tech II down

Oh, wow, I already liked the hand but technician draw gave me Rampant Growth too. Screw Ferocity, let’s wipe Carpe’s board again. Or I could just trade her into Zane, and bring out Argagarg for Spirit of the Panda? No, he’s dead, and I don’t want to leave Centaur as my only offense anyway. Actually, Zane can’t do much with Frogs in the way, maybe kill them all if he’s got some sharks, so let’s just take down his Tech I. Maybe playing Ferocity is still a good idea if I’m expecting sharks, though? I can’t think what else Carpe’s stockpiled so much gold for. Sure, might as well, then I’ve got more chance of a cheap Gigadon.
Very good chances for a guaranteed Spirit of the Panda for healing next turn.
Teching in Stampede since I’m bringing in Argagarg anyway, and Predator Tiger since Carpe’s so behind on tech level.
Uh, playing Ferocity before Centaur attacks, no reason for me to take damage there.

Either way I definitely can’t recover at this point haha, gg! Not sure what to do about Green when I’m Red on the back foot.

GG! I’m not sure, really. Halfway-though, I was most afraid of Jaina coming out and shooting Cal to death with a Flame Arrow. Only thing I can see is trading Zane and a Charged Dog with Calamandra on your turn 2, but I did get a good Centaur draw. Want to play it back?

I can get greedy and scorch plus trade Zane and not worker, which lets me push 4 more damage. let’s think long game here. If I spell up and play Drakk plus BRO, which lets me leverage Drakk midband next turn.

Not a bad board for Drakk’s midband to seriously hurt. Treant can still go two-for-one if I bring in the Spore Shambler, but that’s all my gold after teching up. I think that’s better than trying to block with a Cub or Argagarg’s Wisp, though. Bringing in Huntresses against those 2-health units, including Lobbers if Carpe’s going for a base rush.
Heads up, I might be a bit, I’ve been at Origins pretty solidly this weekend.
