Your turn summary shows 7 workers, and if you skipped one you should have discarded 4 at end of turn, so it might be worth checking your spreadsheet. I’ll do my turn 3 when I get home.
Thanks! My first plan included workering, so I took a card out of my hand and into the worker place, I just forgot to take it back. I’ll do my turn again with the correct amount of cards in hand/discard/worker and edit in the changes!

Skip worker
I messed up my gold projection count in turn one, while also having a hard opening hand for what I wanted to do (early KotC) so I wanted to keep Mox instead of Fading Argonaut, and had I done Fading Argonaut my turn two could have included a worker. That would have made you trade your Ogre instead of Zane into my Mox. In turn 2, patrolling Pastasnack would have protected my tech 1 so that I could have gotten my second KotC out in Turn 3. Those changes would of course created a different responce from you, but they where still stricktly worse plays than the ones I did.
Anyways, well played! Good timed Kidnap, I assume you assumed I would get at least one timerune off, seems like that is a pretty decent answer to forcasted units.
GG, WP. One of the things I love about this game is that your starting hand is something you really need to think about in deciding your strategy. However, it sucks when you have a specific thing you want to try and your starting hand doesn’t work for it.
My big take-home point from this game is Bloodrage Ogre is a dangerous P1T1 play, and it probably should be workered against purple!
The kidnap was happenstance rather than planning. Purple tends to play beefy units, and I knew I probably only needed to get my units through one more time to seal the game, so it seemed a good option to tech with all my burn. I certainly didn’t tech it with the expectation that it would appear in my hand the same turn as your KotC
