Not sure it was worth using the sword this way, but I’m feeling pretty good right now. Cleared the field, 2 heroes out, first Tech 2 on the board. Disease is going to kill my birdies dead (probably some sort of Orpal maxband shenanigans). Glad I teched Degray, hopefully that will deal with a skeleton horde (and the birds, but whatever).

Sure, good game! This definitely feels like a matchup with significant first-player benefit. I was about to bring out Degrey to deal with the skeletons I was assuming you’d summon…sure, my birdies would die too, but sacrifices must be made for JUSTICE!

In the discord @FrozenStorm mentioned Black vs White being a match-up very dependent on going first.
Yea I goofed that, I was mis-remembering my MMM series with Bob199. See the spreadsheet for links, but it was actually about the most even matchup tested: Mono-color Matchup Madness 1! - Google Tabellen

As long as he doesn’t Grapple Gorgon around, I’m in a good spot. I should be alright even if he does.
