up for another?

I don’t think this is allowed - Time Spiral can only add a rune to a card “with at least one time rune”. From your previous turn it looks like Tricycloid was out of runes.

ty for the advice! i actually wasted a gold, since geiger has sparkshot and can kill panda and wisp with one shot! so the turn stays the same, and i win anyway :stuck_out_tongue:

PS: Victorion and Superion are 2 transformers, both their names come from hyperion, hence the pun. Megatron speaks for himself :imp:

16

GG wp.
How could I have stopped you?

Sure. This time I’ll try blue, randomed 46.

17

ur turn to go first. Lemme read ur spoilers and i’ll tell ya :wink:

18

well,i’m still mid level, let’s summon @FrozenStorm for a more in depth reasosning.
first of all, imho mono green is by far the weakest mono color add u did go second, u had both feet back. second, I disagree with many tech choices. U went with troops only even when was clear that cala would survive and that i would not summon heroes. That cuz by discarding cala gets invisible and can slay my heroes for free, recovering cards by using her maxb for tigers (she can summon them even with no tech II). Purple has tech II haste stuff, so u had to beat me to tech II, instead u chose to build a weak board. Ferocity would have given ur troops swift strike, allowing u to wipe out my board without losing yours. Also teching t3 fof bears and not builidng TII asap was bad since u eneded with a dead hand. Lastly, Moss ancient is the weakest TIII green unit, so if u decide to go for TIII, tech lab balance for t rex, or tech straight II balance. T6 u teched dragons that u could not play btw.

19

Summoned lol…

For Jake, my advice would be to take advantage of aggro opportunities. If you max out Cala and kill neo plexus at midband to heal in the process, he doesn’t have room to tech 2 so quickly, as you own the board. It also means your units get resist to hamper stewardess, one of legions best p1t3 plays. Rich earth was a bit too passive.

From there, a tiny basilisk is a better tech than huntress, who isn’t particularly good against purple other than as a mild deterrent to nullcraft. Tower or a gemscout owl would ultimately be more effective and let you have a more useful tech

I agree that 2x barkcoat also isn’t the best way to go turn 3 with techs. You’d probably want feral strike or murkwood + a tech 1 unless are rushing tech 2 to get a clear advantage, and like legion said present tech 2 is pretty superior to your tech 2 options. Even growth t2 is not a good plan against vir, him stealing it would end the game pretty easy. Balance is probably your best bet, but you’d probably rather beat him up with heroes and tech 1 a little longer. Tiny basilisks trade great with purple

The trickshot he pulls with wgd and now should never be possible as he should never have enough space to do that: punish early passivity and you’ll be fine :slight_smile:

20

Wgd + Now is a standard trick for Present. The counter is being able to kill the WGD before it untaps, which you should be able to do, as they only got 5-6 gold for their 5-7 gold investment, so It’s not like they are super far ahead after just that.
