how did you do it with tech 2 down?

I think I’ll just resign here, I don’t have ways to deal with those buildings quickly enough, not since that awful Turn Five. I was considering killing Quince with a fetched Pig that turn, it would’ve meant skipping a worker but probably the better decision.

In hindsight, yeah, taking out Quince would have been a good play there, and IMO worth skipping the worker, agreed. For my part, I should have invested in some form of stealth detection, either a Tower or Eyes of the Chancellor. GG overall, the Garth/Bashing combo was more intimidating (no pun intended) than I expected, but I think Finesse is harder to defend against overall, just because it’s so gold-efficient.

Yeah, it’s got some nice threats, but it’s not obvious how it can come back from behind. Especially when you copy the worst possible Discipline II unit! Want to go again?

Deploying to make Spark and Wither as inefficient to use as possible.

I think I could have won that last game with Bashing II if I hadn’t mucked up, but it looks like that spec is pretty unforgiving on mistakes. I’ll go for a more standard Vandy opener, not sure what I want for Tech II but Bashing could be better as a Tech Lab utility spec. Blooming Vandy would be cool, but midband Grave + Grappling Hook kills her easily. I’ll set her up behind Older Brother.
