Keep his hand down from the start. My most favoured move. But don’t put him on Technician. That’s bad karma on turn 1.

[details=Thoughts]While I have played Black a bit myself, I have never played against someone who knows what he’s doing with Black before. Might have to do some research what I need to be on the lookout for (besides the obvious things like Metamorphosis).

Okay… that starting hand is a bit awkward, so I’d like to just play a hero and catch up on cards again. However, Arg alone seems awfully weak if Jandra is the follow-up, so probably Calamandra and plan to play two units or unit/rampant Growth next turn? There is no way he can kill her right now at least, and it gives me fighting Power against the demon opening.
Alternative would be to play Ironbark Treant, which is good on defense but can’t deal with Jandra on attack and is a juicy StW target if he gets any kind of Skeleton out.

I considered playing Forest’s Favor on Calamandra, which would allow me to deal with Jandra easily, but I feel that it is not worth going down one more card especially when the plan for my next turn is to play two cards as well.[/details]

Somehow, I’m not happy with this. Deteriorate does not work on heroes, so that’s bad. And no use attacking a hero without killing her. Let’s see if we can get to Tech I units next turn. I’m planning for disease. -1/-1s plus Spreading Plague. Let’s what what turn s/he takes.

EDIT: Corrected worker cards and redrew my hand.

No information so far what he is going for. My tech choices are simply cheap units because I’m really paranoid about losing a Centaur to StW. I didn’t tech Tiny Basilisk because Black has many ways to give -1 ATK, making them less useful on defense.

Thoughts

Twilight Baron… Interesting. Don’t think I have seen that one played before.
I have a line that kills his whole board without losing board position with Forest’s Favor on Calamandra and Rampant Growth on Playful Panda. However, going down to 3 cards next turn sounds like a very bad idea against black.
So I think it amounts to a choice of whether to kill the Twilight Baron or play the Huntress. Elite Huntress might be an okay patroller against his board, but with the very probable Sickness I really think I should kill the Twilight Baron.

I prefer to float the money in this case over building a tower as it allows me to play Young Treant for an additional blocker next turn while still building Tech II.

I tech Feral Strike since I want to make the most of my maxband Calamandra, but also another Huntress since I’m worried about Carrion Curse and having lots of units helps in that case.

[details=Thoughts]Okay, I didn’t realize Hooded Executioner doesn’t :target: . So he has enough money to do all of this. Still, paying 3 to kill my 2 gold unit and giving me a card doesn’t sound like a very good trade for him. It also means he didn’t build Tech II this turn, which again sounds like a big advantage for me.

Aaaaand of course I draw Feral Strike for the Technician card, which I would have needed next turn…
So what’s the plan for this one? Of course Tech II and I guess Young Treant + Galina Glimmer with 4 gold still left over, maybe another unit if I draw it with Young Treant? Alternatively a Tower might work, or I build Verdant Tree which would support a rush towards Tech III.

Speaking of Tech III… What is my tech plan? I guess Growth with MoLaC might be too slow, and I don’t think Balance units trade favorably with the black StW & other black shenanigans, although Fairie Dragon is tempting in this situation. I guess my best bet is a few tigers and then rush to Moss Ancient with an option on Feral Strike Tyrannosaurus. Verdant Tree fits this plan well and also heals Calamandra after she tries to keep the board clear.
Moment’s Peace would be a possible stall card, but with the reshuffle situation right now I don’t think it is worth investing in it.

So let’s Tech two Stalking Tigers for now, and let’s see what the Young Treant draw brings me…

Aaaaand it’s a Huntress… So that makes my decision harder whether to go for the Verdant Tree or not. I think Huntress is better just for the board presence and I while building Tech III next turn telegraphs my intentions in a pretty strong way, I don’t think the surprise Tech III is worth more than a 3/3 on the field.

So tentative plan for next turn is tech 2x Moss Ancient. Worker (1) Tech III (5), summon Arg (2) maybe level him for the Water-Ele or play a unit. This is easily financed with the floating gold and Galina Glimmer. Still waiting for him to show his tech plan, I think discarding 2 to snipe his tech building might be a good choice if I’m afraid of what he could put out.

Ok, so I need Tech II quick to spam -1/-1 tokens onto his armies any maybe crush them with Spreading Plague. Or for defending Gorgons. So no Tower, today. I hope that’s ok.

[details=Thoughts]The plan from last turn stands, now for the details! Since I don’t have Rampant Growth in hand (with which I could destroy his board and Tech II), the plan is definitely to stealth Calamandra and destroy the Tech II, the question is whether I need to do anything about his board. Trading Galina Glimmer and Huntress for Bone Collector seems like a very bad trade even if I can bring out a Water Elemental. I’m not sure if I need to bring out the Water Elemental right now, because I feel like I have enough board on the board, but I can afford it, so why not.

For next turn I draw 2 cards from a 9 card deck containing 2x Moss Ancient and Feral Strike, giving me a not so bad chance to close out the game.

I’m sorry to disappoint, but you can’t have two heroes out while you don’t have a functioning Tech II building.

16

Sorry, this gets me all the time. Not sure where my head was. Vandy goes back, Patrol zone gets rearranged, let me see if I need to make more adjustments.

17

Hopefully fixed it. I redid the whole turn.

GG, @Eijolend! You just had it going from the start and gave me no opportunity to catch up. I was thinking about folding on turn 4 … :wink:

I thought Disease was a good idea versus Feral. Not sure about that any more. Though in this case, my spec choice would not have changed anything, without ever having an active Tech II.

Well done! Best wishes for the rest of the tournament.
