Actually, if I just worker Lawful Search, I can put down Spectral Hound and midband Onimaru to kill Rook. Or, I just trade with Onimaru to bring someone else out. I’m not sure that’s a good idea just yet, setting up a Mirror would be interesting but I need to hit Tech II as soon as I can.
Just teching in cards to keep me going later, with card draw, and Community Service because Onimaru will probably get hit with Snapback soon.
Killing Rook stops Thunderclap from killing backline illusions. Do I need to block with Building Inspector, or can I ping the base? Onimaru can be killed by Speed of the Fox and a midband Setsuki, but that’s 6 gold out of 10, so Shadow would have to skip Tech II. He can also get hit with Snapback, but there’s nothing I can do about that. OK, let’s block just in case. Actually, let’s put Onimaru in Lookout, it makes him vulnerable to Hook + Speed of the Fox, but I think Snapback is more likely.

Thoughts
I could just kill everything and tech up, but I think I’d rather midband Bigby, sideline the Partner, and destroy the Tech I. It means the Partner can come back and buff something, but it’s going to be buffing a Tech 0 or a hero that isn’t Grave, and I can deal with the former with Arrest if needs be.
… Drawing the Juggernaut kinda sucks, but I’ll be ready for the Insurance Agent to help me along. I could always go for a Gryphon if things go well.
