Skipping a worker to go for a tech break here. I’m thinking that’ll limit Codexnewb’s options a fair bit. Fair pile of gold over there though, so I expect a fair bit of action.
Past eh? I might try teching in Blooming Ancients and going Growth then. What are the chances he’s going with Shimmer Rays? That could be a drama… but with the threat of Mimics about, it seems unlikely?

Play Ironbark Treant (3/2, -2ATK+AA when patrolling) - ($0)
Tiny Basilisk squeaks by Fargo and trades with Yesterday’s Yohgurt. You gain a gold.
I’m reading Deathtouch as “combat damage kills opponents.”
So I’m making this play under the impression Second Chances doesn’t trigger here.
I checked the Rules Questions thread but didn’t turn anything on the topic.

Argh, with Tower detection I can’t get another Tech break this turn, gotta take my foot off the pedal here and build keep up with Tech II.
Codexnewb is sitting on a lot of cheddar over there! This’ll definitely hurt.
Ah, my bad. Uhm, yeah, I’d rather not leave Cal on 1 hp. Instead of casting Rampant Growth I’ll play Ironbark Treant (and not float $1), and not attack, leaving Fargo unscathed in SQL. TB can still get to the Golgurt because it’s unstoppable by T0 units, so can squeak by Fargo.

legion makes a good point. i suppose i can just not tech 3 here and use that gold for some other stuff. however, i feel like it might yield the same result.
lmk if you want to continue this. in the meantime, ill post in game 10.
