worker the bloodburn, i really dont see a use for it other than to make green waste a tech with nature reclaims.

Early game: efficient gold trades
MId Game - depends, maybe go for fire but use archers / bamstamper instead?
late game - combo of base race and tech breaks.

the thing that changs mostly in the mid game.

Midori + Cub, and see how we go. I’m leaning towards Giant Panda + Galina to start with. Again, keeping Midori on the backline to stop a Scorch + Bombaster snipe, as unlikely as it is.

Heroes’ Hall, but no float, so at worst there’s a midband Zane or Zane + Lobbers coming. Probably no Kidnapping next turn. Drakk or Jaina would chew through Wisps pretty quickly, so Panda + Galina isn’t as good. I’ll go for a Huntress, risk a Tiny Basilisk too and hope for no early Kidnapping.

Thoughts

Hmm, Zane + Bombaster is actually pretty good against my tech choices here. Bombaster can sacrifice himself on a NoSQL Tiny Basilisk so it doesn’t trade with Zane, and Zane deals with Huntress if he maxbands. Alternatively, Zane kills Huntress and Bombaster hits buildings. That’s before accounting for damage from codexnewb’s hand. Shame I didn’t draw the Verdant Tree to play with my Tech I units here, otherwise I wouldn’t have as hard a choice between the units and Tech II. Maybe I use the Young Treant first, and see if I draw it? I’d rather play Argagarg or Calamandra behind the Tech I units, I think. Argagag’s Wisp in patrol makes it harder to get through using Zane’s shove, but he can’t do much if the units get wiped. But I think I want to go into Balance II here with hasted Lobbers around, so maybe that’s not so bad?

Starting with Potent Basilisk for the untargetable ability. Gemscout Owl only needs Tech I, and can gain income while ignoring ground attackers, possibly block Gliders or Firebirds later. Potentially a Circle of Life target later, too, if I’m having trouble defending a Tech II.

Patrol might look odd, but the idea is to discourage a Tiny Basilisk kill using shove + Bombaster ability, since I’d get a patrol bonus. Plus, Huntress in Elite would kill Zane and not be killed by Bombaster. Vulnerable to Surprise Attack, though, so hopefully there isn’t one coming. Zane can share the patrol bonus, but codexnewb still has to pay for shove to do it.

drawing the archer is a bummer, but at least i dont need to tech up for a while.

i need to get that tiny B out of here. that means using zane as a wall…dont want rampant growth + arg midband.

let’s bring out drak to get some gold value and another attacker. unload with lobbers and ogre next turn.

Thoughts

Could’ve been worse, although it looks like codexnewb might be drawing all his good cards this turn. So is it worth killing Drakk this turn? It’s Drakk, so probably. Basilisk kills Zane, Rampant Growth + Arg kills Drakk and gets me a Water Elemental for patrol. Then worker + Tech II leaves 1 gold for Gemscout Owl. Is Water Elemental enough to block with? Probably not. I could play Verdant Tree + Midori/Cal instead, and that would leave me in a decent position, I think. Midori lets me go for Circle of Life off the Owl, Calamandra’s midband could be handy if codexnewb is going for Fire spells, not unlikely given his patrol setup and vulnerable Drakk. But maybe he’s gambling on me not drawing Rampant Growth and I’m overthinking things. Let’s go with Calamandra, and if she survives the turn she’s better for levelling cheaply to go on offense.

Teching the Circle and a Wandering Mimic, then if I draw one card either benefits from the Owl.

EDIT: Can’t play Calamandra, so I’m building a Heroes’ Hall instead. I could float instead, but I’m worried about Pillage. This gives me extra options if I can’t get a Tech II down.

Thoughts

Tech II + Basilisk seems essential here, but I don’t know whether to skip a worker to get a second hero down, codexnewb’s turn could be pretty scary… Do I want to take out a Lobber and the Mad Man with the Elemental and Argagarg, or do I want Elemental in patrol for a hasted Firebird? Leaving a Lobber alive for the Mimics would be nice, but it’s likely he’ll want to suicide them once he sees my Tech II choice. Besides, if I leave his board alone Drakk just turns up at midband, and that would already be a painful attack before any cards are played.

Teching in the other Mimic, since I really need to play them soon, and Dinosize to try and punch through.
