Kinda regret trading Geiger last turn, that Now! would be very helpful if I could cast it. Maybe Martial Mastery will help. Okay, there’s a possibility he’ll Circle of Life one of those units into a Mimic… but he doesn’t have any Tech II or Tech III units in hand… and, as long as I don’t kill the Wisp, that’ll remain true. Guess I can afford to hang back and play defensively this turn.

DarthMorgoth · October 13, 2021, 12:34pm

Okay, I surrender! GG WP! Should we switch starting players for same matchup?

Got a much better card split this time. Supports Imp/Graveyard, got T1 Haunt, and both Deteriorate and StW for T2. So much better.

Want to smack down that Rich Earth ASAP, will be a loss for me regardless, but better than letting him continue to get free workers forever. I expect the Graveyard to die, but if it shrinks his hand size, that’ll limit his options going forward. Also a loss for me, but better than letting him get a hero kill.

Can’t afford to dig for Versatile Style… I mean, I could do it, but Calamandra would almost certainly kill Grave right after, which combined with the cost of the 2 spells would be a $7 swing in his favor, which would far outweigh any benefit of destroying the upgrade at this point.

Seems it’s time to give up on the idea of removing that upgrade… But, there’s no immediate risk of giving away free levels, at least. The one thing I absolultely want to prevent is Tigers eating workers.

Choosing to invite Graveyard overflor here… it would mean leaving Grave intact, and Graveyard isn’t especially compatible with Garth’s maxband anyway. Furthermore, it’s about time I started phasing out the Haunt and the Imp.
