If you’re building a Tech Lab you don’t have a float

22

Sorry, I had elected to float instead of tech lab. I edited the turn to remove the tech lab.

Bringing in a Fairie Dragon to float off Fuzz Cuddles for a hero kill, and a good way to kill Glorous Ninjas or backline heroes.

I think it might be too late to matter, but isn’t Stalking Tiger invisible while Calamandra is in play? Even if it’s patrolling, it can’t be targeted by the opponent’s spells or abilities without a detector (so Deteriorate shouldn’t have worked).

So patrolling invisible units can be attacked but not targeted?

To opponents without a detector, this is untargetable, unattackable, and can sneak past patrollers. While patrolling, this is attackable.

Yes, while an invisible unit is patrolling it becomes vulnerable to attacks only.

I guess I always figured that Invisible phased away entirely when you patrol units, but after looking it up, it seems like they would maintain their untargetable nature, but can be attacked, when they patrol.

it was so far back, I say we just move on and continue as is right now. It’s good to know for the future though.

Still low on cards, but prefer to keep the addition 2/2 Skeleton rather than sac for draw. I can max both Zane and Midori next turn for a lot of atk.

[/spoiler][/details]

31

I’ll GG it there. I cant stop you from taking out my tech 2 and 1 between your heroes, skeletons, and PB.

Obviously stealth Cal was not a good play so early.

Want to run it back? You can post first.

32

GG!

On my T1 I though of playing Javelineer + tower to avoid the Cal stealth entirely, but thought that Tiny Basilisks in deck would be able to deal with a maxed hero and tigers.

GLHF!

Teching 2xBasilisks, good threat against a hero-heavy game, and trade up against Centaurs.

Would like to give Graveyard a try, so I can keep playing the good 2-cost Tech1s in my deck. Maybe his spend on Heroes Hall gives me the chance to do that – unless I end up needing a Tower against Cal.

Set SH will deal with his eventual wall of patrolers. Darn it, didn’t draw SH. Oh well, I’m fine if he trades 3 or 4 units with Vandy, worst case I bring out Cal to defend a bit. Heros only, so weird…

Not sure what his Heroes Hall plan is. Get both combat heroes in play (Vandy/Cal)? Try for an early Metamorphosis?

In either case, good draw for me with both Basilisks in T3 hand. As extra firepower, I can always sac Garth to bring in Zane if I need it.
