Thoughts

Awkward opening hand in the sense that it’s almost too good. Decided on Ogre+Dog because I doubt I’ll want to play any cards from hand next turn. Long-term, Discipline makes MoLaC risky at best, so probably need to either go for Gunships or Strength Tech II + Growth Magic.

Bloodrage ogre is a 3/2

You too!

Man, that’s a mean opening with Zane in the box, and Mad Man in the starter somewhere.

So, any hero I play will die… and if I don’t play a hero, I’m dealing with expensive Flagbearer or letting BRO/Lv.1 Zane attack and live. So I might as well bite the bullet by putting out a sacrificial bull. If I’d had Savior Monk this turn, I would have played that instead of Troq. Likewise, might as well get the Tech I out early. If he wants to bust it up this turn instead of plowing damage into my base, it’ll save me in the long run. (Of course, he might just poke it this turn to take it out next, but so be it.)

His deck is designed to go MoLaC easily, but also has Gunship rush or Dino-Birds.

I’m going to need some versatile style, but I should also remember my ninjas. Shuriken Hail is unusually good against Red’s weenies (plus birds/wisps). Glorious Ninja and Porcupine are probably my best units against powered-up aggression. Hired Stomper is great for its removal, but Bashing seems like a hard spec to make work. At Tech I, IPN and Iron Man are looking good.

So, the real question is victory condition… Sets will never survive long enough to get out FDS, so Ninja army is out. Daigo doesn’t have haste, and effectively has only 6HP (and can’t patrol to protect those HP). Seems really hard to use. Duck is decent? MoLaC will probably hit before then… In ults, we have have TPoS, which is doable, but maybe not twice. Final Smash is not really a game-ender, but might work here better than against most. Destroy a bird, bounce a Taxman, take a Blooming Ancient? 6 is expensive though, and so is getting Troq to max (let alone surviving).

I’m leaning towards… Fox’s Den School+GN, actually. With IPN/Iron Man/heroes on defense? Now I’m wishing I hadn’t workered Smoker. I’ll also want to keep Primus around for anti-air.

Not sure what to put in for my first techs; his turn will determine if Tech I units will even be viable. If not, I’m leaning toward VStyle and Shuriken Hail.

[details=Thoughts]I’m sure he expected me to make that trade, but I think it works out in my favor - $3 spent on my units vs $2 on his hero, but with the free levels it’s as if I only spent $1 on the units, and I’m back up to normal hand size. Arg goes in Lookout to prevent a Snapback, though that probably wouldn’t be all that good for him either (If he cast both that and Sensei’s Advice he could lock me out of both Arg and Zane, but that would cost $6 in all without Resist - meaning he’d have to skip a worker). Anyway, teching Spirit of the Panda to take advantage of its stats and gold-giving (if only to make its initial cost be less than Dinosize) and Gunpoint Taxman for a decent body and to preempt both Dragons and Eggships down the line.

Let’s see if this helps?

After the draw… maybe I should have doubled up on Shuriken Hail? Or maybe I trust this stuff will be useful later, and I just build Tech II.
Next techs should be GN and Versatile Style. Then some combo of GN/VS/FDSchool. Then the leftover and another FDSchool or Porcupine?

[details=Thoughts]That Tower is going to cause trouble, I’m sure… But for now I’m getting the board securely under control. I’m not really worried about much he can do next turn except for Inverse Power Ninja, and even that I could take out with both of the units I have right now if necessary. With a Tower to prevent stealth shenanigans and Versatile Style to destroy MoLaC, the only plan I see worth using is boosted Barbarbarians.

I could play Tech II and hope to draw into GN, but I’m not confidence my defense would hold up (Troq again). Instead, I’m getting IPN out, as well as Flagbearer now that I know he’s rolling some green spells.
As far as techs go, I’m just building the deck I want to have later.

After the draw… There’s my Shuriken Hail, and Hook, and Advice. Interesting. We’ll see. I could play my hand (minus GN) and Sets, and still have enough to build my Tech II.

Thoughts

WIsh I didn’t have to make those trades (curse you, Tower…!), but I really didn’t want the Flagbearer there when my plan revolves around things like Dinosize. Still don’t know what his plan is, though I’m expecting Ninjutsu Tech II for Porcupines and/or Glorious Ninjas. I wanted to grab Polymorph: Squirrel in case of Porcupine (or Stampede to take advantage of maxed Arg), but I don’t want to lean too heavily on Growth spells when Snapback may be coming, and Grappler will do as good or better against most things I’d want to use it on if I can keep it alive long enough.

[details=Thoughts][spoiler]What crazy inverse world are we in, where I’m playing lots of red cards in an all-out attack that forces me to skip a worker against ARMed_Pirate, who is using a mostly-white codex and has been playing it fairly conservatively?!

In any case, while I could have kept my hand size higher by just playing Barbarbarian and passing, that would let him have free reign to play whatever he wants. This way, it’s unlikely he’ll be able to accomplish much next turn and I should get a turn to breathe. I can’t afford to skip any more workers until I hit 10, though.[/spoiler][/details]

Not much I can do this turn, but that’s fine. This patrol would be difficult to break through (something like Reversal + Sword Rune would work, but that’s both unlikely and expensive). I’m thinking that next turn I’ll tech up to Tech III and get a Tech Lab for Gunship. Not sure if I want two Gunships or one and Oathkeeper.

Maybe should have played Flabearer instead of Sets, but when you can have 2 max heroes with great abilities, might as well try it.

After the draw… no TPoS, but we’ll have to wait to see how his turn (with Zane+Charge) turns out. May have two more cards. The ideal is he kills my scavenger, and both heroes survive, and I can drop TPoS+GN+FDSchool. Seems unlikely, though.

Someone correct me if I’m wrong but I believe Barb with Panda attached is 7/9, not 5/7, as the +2/2 is doubled

Of course it is, and I had got that right on my first attempt at the turn… :sweat_smile:

Should have played Flabearer and teched another TPoS last turn, maybe?

I got unlucky missing my TPoS; I really would have loved to play that+Porcupine+FDS for 14 damage and some real protection.
There are no good answers here. He didn’t kill my scavenger, so the most I can play is two porcupines and FDS or FDSchool. That’ll keep me alive, but won’t further my agenda.
I could kill Arg, but that’ll only slow things down a bit, and maybe I could get lucky and he won’t draw the Dinosize?
I could play GN+FDSchool or GN+FDS or FDS+FDschool. FDSchool maybe gets me an extra 4 or 5 next turn, unless he just builds a Tower; then it’s 3 or 4 if I do FDS now.
I think this is dumb, but I’m going to hope he can’t kill me, hope he doesn’t kill Grave, and hope Troq can survive a turn or I can draw a wrecking ball at the right time.

I think that’s game. Despite your claim that your codex is terrible (and I do think just taking mono-white would have been better), I have no clue how to beat the combination of Tower (locking out Anarchy stuff), Ninjutsu (good against Strength+Growth combo, especially if you get Porcupine) and Versatile Style (just threatening it means no MoLaC, which is this codex’s Plan A).
