[details=Thoughts]Tech 2x Bootcamp? I might draw ādeadā three times, but even then I can body up and maybe survive another turn to claw my way back in. I might also just win by breaking tech 2 and turbo-walling up.
FG1, kill with oni, trade OE. BI, draws 6/8 (OEx2, TD, NF, BCx2 ā not FG//SA); 4/9 gold used. If we hit FG//SA we play our newsman, hope to not hit the remaining 1, then we can play SA if we hit the other one drawing into BC/BC/OE/OE/NF of which only NF or BC-BC ends our streak, and ONLY if we draw NF at the end do we not get to do great things.
Play priority NF > BC > Newsman > SA basically.
BC+NF or 2x BC means a tech 2 break with DS and trade Quince for River, and all three means we kill Onimaru AND river while maxbanding Quince and breaking tech 2 (BC tenderfoot, BC NF, NF > Onimaru levels to quince. Quince > river levels to quince. DS > Tech 2. Even if we run into SA+FG immediately following FG-BI-NF-BC-BC (8/9), we dump BI as a 2/2+A by dropping runes and DS is a 3/3. Worker piggy and pass probably. If we hit OE or TD in there we get another body and rune to work with.
Ended up with everything BUT the nimble fencer, which is fine.
Newsman on 1 to end my draw chain, meaning no bootcamp for him and trading quince for River leaves him with oni (3/3-5/5), 2/3 tenderfoot and 3/3 NF on tech 1 vs full/mostly full patrol zone. No bootcamps, no DS, no river spells, no second FG to get techād cards super cheap, no sparkā¦ Most efficient way to kill whatever I load up with runes isā¦ Hallucination+Elite training, neither of which I think he techād.
He could still have NF+Starletx2 in theory for 2+3+oni ++ 2+3+3 which is a fairly large amount of attack, but I think a 5/6 OE is strong enough to break his back right now unless he already went for hallucination/elite training, and even then heās probably going to have a tough time.
Chances are heās got at least one DS in hand/to draw, and quite possibly two, and I wouldnāt put it past to have a second FG either. So fairly high chance he has 2+ Tech 2 cards in deck, and removal of the known bootcamp as a way to push through my oversized patrol as well as Riverās discount/midband/possible appel stomp shouldnāt leave him much space.
Even flagbearer probably wonāt help too much as I have a monster board to be trading in and can bring in my own starlets/fencers if I need more attacking bodies.[/details]
