Good game, sir, and congratulations to us both for finishing the series!
This was a real learning experience for me, not only about the matchup and the two codices but also about how a meta evolves, even between two players from one match to the next.
I’m not sure how well our series reflects on Purple vs. Blue rather than just HolyTispon as Purple vs. Dreamfire as Blue, but I do think we can try to draw some general conclusions.
On my end, I felt like the lack of early pressure (especially relative to Blue vs. Black/Red) let me develop my tech 2 plans rather than just react, while also preparing answers (informed by Lawful Search) to your strategy. Even when you were able to wrest control of the board in the midgame, I could fall back on card- and gold-efficient units to stall for explosive Gryphon+Mirror plays.
