Man its turn 5 and already things look pretty dire for me! I’m going to dig for cards to save my life, hopefully it works!

Slowly, I’m whittling his heroes down… However, my base HP is such that I literally can’t allow a Metamorph to happen, or I will straight up lose. I lucked into a Jurisdiction here, he can still clear my patrol but he has to take Vandy damage to do it! Also since he’s holding Metamorph, Censorship Council next turn for me means he’ll have a hard time getting it back without grabbing it with Vandy midband, which slows his ability to go right at me at least somewhat. Hopefully I can use the time it buys to get another Free Speech off and generate some econ advantage with Insurance Agents!

Okay, another good split on cards, got another Free Speech… He will have a tough time killing Quince AND keeping Vandy alive, and I’m not really worried about Plague Lord. I should hopefully keep some board as a result of this turn, and maybe be able to tech 3 next turn (although we’ll have to see!)

Okay the reason I’m stashing Jurisdiction is JUST IN CASE I don’t draw the Gryphon, I may be able to hit back for 2 next turn (my only hope of not losing right now is he isn’t holding a tech 3 or metamorph, which is okay odds I think.). If that’s the case, I want Jurisdiction for General’s Hammer, to break the tech 3.

Let’s see if a roll of the dice works out for me!
