[Casual] Nekoatl vs bansa

Legion · June 11, 2021, 12:22pm

fwiw you could have dealt 3 more dmg to base by attackinng with DS first and then moving all of his runes on OC #2, bringing it to 2 and making general hammer a win condition by either oni or jurisdiction.

Legion · June 11, 2021, 12:25pm

what would have you rather played? bigby?

bansa · June 11, 2021, 5:15pm

Yea… Bigby or no hero… Oni is bad… I used to know this but forgot…

Seems like a Tower or attacking and then midbanding Oni might have worked better than building the Tech II there? Though I suppose the free rebuilds may work in his favor if he dumps enough Tech I patrollers quickly enough.

Dark Pact is being stubborn. He has $3 left, and still isn’t building a Tower… maybe he’s floating for Judgment Day? No, because he’s offering up Bigby on a Silver platter as a speed bump. Hmm, maybe he just forgot to consider it as an option? Or maybe he trusts that patrol to protect his Tech II and wants to have gold to kick-start the Peace engine. That’s probably it. Better take down his Tech I, then.

bansa · June 11, 2021, 6:32pm

Vandy needs to doom stuff when she is maxed killing Quince

Nekoatl · June 11, 2021, 6:45pm

That works out better for me, good catch. Turn corrected.

Legion · June 11, 2021, 6:48pm

how did you summon 2 heroes with tech 2 down?

bansa · June 11, 2021, 7:11pm

Oops, my bad. I fold here. This is refreshing my memory about P2 Blue. Yup, not going to work.

At best I can only expect to win 50% against Black assuming I win every P1 game and lose every P2 game. That’s not enough for a tourney win. I’m giving up on mono blue.

Your turn to test your deck against something of your choice.

Nekoatl · June 11, 2021, 7:41pm

Thoughts

I might be looking at another Grappling Hook here, in which case I can’t count on the Basilisk SQL to protect a patrolling Quince… but, if I patrol the Basilisk solo, the Sensei will kill the Prospector or, more likely, the Mirror. A Wisp won’t cut it either, because of Grave’s sparkshot. Guess I need to play the Shambler… Except, then Grave can just kill the Shambler and the Sensei still gets easy access to the Mirror. In which case, I should just accept that a Mirror is probably going to die, and have a backup ready to go.

Disease, is it? I might be looking at Abominations. Is there anything I can do to stop them? … Not right now. However… Mind Control might be an effective counter. Macciatus might be quite helpful, as well, particularly when paired with Dreamscape. For now, though, I’ll just clear his board and make sure I have an undamaged, non-illusion Basilisk ready to go. Worst case scenario, I can play the Shambler and drop a rune on it to allow it to attack.

Plauge Lab, eh? That could be a bit annoying if I’m not careful, but probably it’s not as bad as Aboms. Is it worth using nature Reclaims to clear them? He does have other buildings to choose from, but… those aren’t available without a Tech Lab. Guess I’ll go for it.

You had 4 cards in hand. After Worker, Shambler, Glimmer, should be discard 1?
