Thoughts

Ironbark Treant seems safe enough to drop in SQL here: Deteriorate + Jandra leaves it alive, and playing Sacrifice the Weak + Skeleton would require skipping Tech I and a worker. Floating a gold gives me 4 gold next turn after worker + Tech I, so I can drop Midori for a spell if it gives me an advantage.

Long-term, it’s the endless Crashbarrow deck, yadda yadda. Balance or Strength both seem like reasonable ways to go here, since they both have high-health units (Horselords, Barbarbarians, Grapplers).

so how will i deal with birds? that is the question. bloodlust? not sustainable. tower, frenzy birds still suck. i think archery is my only thing to disuade for now. teching BC’s for synergy.

if he wants to rampant growth treant, he’s more than welcome. deteriorate can clean up any 1 hp survivals.

Thoughts

I’m surprised to see Skeleton Archery here. Is codexnewb just worried about Birds / Owl? Oh, he could be going for Lich’s Bargain, he could afford that and Sacrifice the Weak next turn but he has to skip a worker to do it, my Treant would probably live to face a Bargain.

I could Rampant Growth the Treant to take no damage when killing Jandra, but Sacrifice the Weak would make it an even trade before accounting for the Technician bonus. Alternatively, I can play Rich Earth in response to such a slow start, trade the Treant into Jandra, and still afford to bring out a hero. Which hero?

  • Midori could Nature Reclaims the Skeletal Archery, but I don’t think I’m worried about that too much yet. Save it for the Graveyard. Moment’s Peace slows down an LB rush, and I could go straight to Tech II in the meantime.
  • Drakk could play Kidnapping on a Horror, or Bloodlust on some Skeletons to thin out the board.
  • Rook has Birds, but they’d die quickly unless I can keep him alive, or play an expensive Rampant Growth. If he dies, I could use Drakk’s midband to make them earn their keep. Alternatively, Thunderclap could help to reach the Horror / Garth if the Treant lives. No, wait, I’m trading the Treant. Never mind.

I could also go for Tiny Basilisks, to easily trade with hero / Horror if he’s going for tokens. Crash Bomber is nice against an LB horde if he gets to attack. The ideal thing would be to play Birds, then if Rook dies bring out Drakk at midband to trade them into a hero, then bring out a hasted Crash Bomber.

I’ve already got the economy, let’s go with double Moment’s Peace and slow the game down while I set up for Tech II. I’m half-tempted to try and draw into Moment’s Peace + Rickety Mine, but I think I’ve got enough economy for now.

expecting that nature reclaims. that’s okay. delays him i suppose and allows me to take the board. rampant growth against BC would suck. lets build a tower to handle that.

teching double kidnapping to try and swing here. i wonder if he teching a tiny basilisk? that would be awesome.

Hmm, no Lich’s Bargain. I’m almost disappointed. Still, Bone Collector isn’t as useful if its Skeletons can’t do anything, so I still want to shoot for DeGrey here. Do I want a Barbarbarian or a Grappler to deal with that Collector? I think the latter, since it takes no damage back. Shame I drew both copies of Moment’s Peace here.

Thoughts

Blood II seems fine here: I’ve got units with high health, Morningstar Pass, and Oathkeeper to stop Crashbarrows doing anything. At the moment, I think I want Birds to block Gliders, and threaten a double tech kill once Midori’s finished his solo run, and Morningstar Pass to protect against whenever my Moment’s Peace streak ends. After that I can go into Barbarbarians, Oathkeepers, or Nature Reclaims, depending on what comes out. I’m surprised there’s no Graveyard yet.

Thoughts

Yeah, I forgot about Free Speech. I think I need to get DeGrey down now to get rid of that Mirror, even though it gives codexnewb free rein for his Collectors to bring Skeletons in. Crashbarrow Mirrors would be bad. Wow, that’s a lot of float. Time for a Tower, I think. Or I might need Drakk as a sacrificial lamb: currently there’s 8 attack against my 9 health plus SQL armour, so a Crashbarrow plus 1 more damage would destroy my Tech II. Or maybe just the Spore Shambler, it’s another card down but gives me a bit more health to work with. Hopefully I can get some Barbarbarians down quickly to help block up. I might bring in a Boulder and Mythmaking too, to try and get some breathing room. Outside of Crashbarrows, I’m being hit with 1 or 3 damage / health, which is nice for the health/attack totals my units have.

Pfffft. OK, GG, I get a bit too greedy with Midori there. I’ll start a new game tomorrow.

It hadn’t occurred to me how oppressive the spells for the heroes in the Crashbarrow deck can potentially be. I might have my work cut out trying to find a work-around.

P1T1

Starting hand: 5

Ironbark Treant
Spore Shambler
Merfolk Prospector
Tiger Cub
Rampant Growth

Thoughts

An opposing Drakk hinders my usual game plan due to Kidnapping, and being able to boost stolen units just as much as I could. Free Speech can neuter my own Drakk, that plus Nether Drain + Doom Grasp can deal with high-level Midori or Rook. My usual answer to annoying heroes are Tiny Basilisks, but those can be stolen or copied with Mirrors.

  • Balance has Potent Basilisks, that can’t be stolen and can destroy Skeletal Archery. They can be copied with Mirrors, but at cost parity. I’d need to be really careful about when to play other Balance II units, though. At least the Mimics can become untargetable too. Chameleons wouldn’t be as painful to have stolen, so maybe I could try to get some quick Tech building kills with Bloodlust, the Mimics could come along for the ride too.
  • Blood looks like a good way to ensure I get out-Crashbarrowed.
  • Strength offers no counters against units being stolen, but maybe Mythmaking would make Boulder / DeGrey worth my while, since they aren’t so great for Kidnapping and there’s no upgrade removal to worry about.

Rampant Growth’s in my starting hand, so I’ll open with Rook instead of Midori for early pressure.

I could just use Forest’s Favor here to let Rook kill Jandra and live, I think Bloodlust is the only card that could get a reprisal kill. That doesn’t leave me with enough gold to play something else, due to the casting penalty, but I don’t want Jandra hanging around. Actually, no, Jandra hanging around is good, because of her death penalty. I’ll just set up behind Rook. Thunderclap could help set up a hero/Jandra kill.

yep, don’t like this split…not at all. id rather have tech than scav with imp. hoping he uses RG on panda to get through jandra - then i can deteriorate.
