let’s see if i get lucky on the nullcraft…

holding on to pillage since i think the eace engine likes to float gold?

Miracle Grow is tough to pilot. I can’t say I’ve had a ton of success with it either.

I also feel like I’m not making the most of my chosen deck here; EricF certainly made it look like a world-beater a couple years back but I’m no EricF :wink:

battles suilts or nullcraft will help him punch through. but i think this is best regardless.

just checking in. happy friday!

Sorry, been a busy end to the week and had taken a turn in my head but not actually written it up I guess lol. Unfortunately weekend is busy also, should have warned; my birthday and my daughter’s birthday are both around this weekend so lots of party planning and set up. I will try to write something up tonight!

No worries at all!

okay a day late, sorry about that; daughter’s bday party had a lot of prep work!

LB seems the better bet right now, so going for that. I expect birds here but wouldn’t be shocked by GPT + Charge, which would be a bummer but it’s manageable

My Thoughts

Would doing double LB be insane? I really can’t decide… I would be stacked to the 9s on the board, but Zane can erase that in a hurry and I only have a 1-turn break from him. Better to try and set up Peace engine? Or maybe go for Future? Void star could do a lot of damage…

I’m gonna do Peace Engine + one LB, feels the safest and most balanced option. OC + Garrison, likely to get them for turn 5 when I want em

Except if I, like, you know, hit that 20% that I draw the Garrison prematurely… dammit


Looks like a copy paste error with the discard draw? Should be discard 2, draw 4?

Correct, yes; I’ve been neglecting that line in games recently, my apologies!

Well, there it is. Doesn’t make it easy to counter though. No good trades for me here, so probably wall up.

bring in SotP/CM to assist birds or mad man for some hero snipes.

Okay, let’s try to keep Garth alive, kill as much stuff as possible, and hope to tech up next turn (no sense in doing it this turn…) I’ll grab a tower to deal with the Birds, and forego the heal on Garth (he can kill garth either way). I’m hoping by staying ahead on board and cards, I get my engine rolling before he does. Fingers crossed XD

surprised i didnt see more tech 1 or liches bargain? maybe bottom decked?
