Hmm next turn probably dog + bombaster or oger.

Maybe he kills Vandy with Scorch or MSR and midband Cala and tech 1 skip…

Not good…

  1. Clear the board + tech 1 - lobber und MSR kill tech 1…
  2. PBR trades with oger, imp, tech 1 - Vandy kill, Cala max…
  3. PBR trades with oger, Jandra sl, tech 1 - Vandy kill is not so easy but possible, no tech break possible
  4. Clear the board, Skip tech 1 - Vandy max float 1
  5. Skip tech 1, PBR trades with oger, imp, midband Vandy - lobber+ madman kill Vandy, Cala max
  6. Skip tech 1, PBR trades with oger, Jandra, midband Vandy - No tech 1 no Vandy kill
  7. Skip tech 1, midband Vandy kills dog, PBR trades with oger or not, Imp/Jandra - Imp leads to risk lobber kills Vandy
  8. Tech 1 PBR trades with dog, Imp Scav, Vandy, tech1 - 3 cards for him, probably no tech 1 break, but possible, sacrifice Vandy
  9. Tech 1 PBR trades with dog, Jandra SL, Vandy, tech1 - 4 Cards for him, probably sacrifices Vandy, probably no tech 1 break

Good start from Bansa, all my answers are… Took me a while but I think to sacrifice Vandy is the only choice. Option 4 will cause issues in two rounds.
P2…

Let’s hope no lobber or madman and go with 9. This fits best to my strategy. I need to bring him down on cards as a first step.

Of course he had haste, bye bye Vandy see you next turn…

But OK I can follow the plan. Cycle should be good. I think he must kill Technician, good chance to draw garrison

He did not kill technician and I was not lucky with the draw…

Now I cannot go for the original plan. In his last games he played firebird, which is probably a good answer to Garrison as well. I need some anti air, but can not rely on the tech lab as I wanted, because I have to defend tech 2 against stealth Cala.

A charged firebird will cause a problem… At least I can avoid Drakk max firebird. Pillage would be very bad as well with a pirate…

His next turn will probably decide the game.

This will be tough… He made a strong move

I have to dilute my deck and garrison will not work…

Post draw: No Gargoyle, not very lucky in that tournament so far…

11

My units have resist 1, are you spending 1 more gold to target Firebird?

12

Actually Firebird can’t be doomed regardless. Vandy’s maxband doesn’t work on Tech 2 units.

GG, well played! Your Tech break was perfectly on time. I have diluted my deck and garrison draw did not work out (but I would have lost anyway even with air hammer)

I gambled that your last card on hand is no unit…
