As a reminder, neither Doom Grasp nor Kidnapping can hit Tech 3 units.

Oh whoops, you are right. Thankfully in addition to forgetting that, I also forgot until this last turn that having skeletal archery in play meant that I did have a source of anti-air after all (which meant that amusingly my MoLaC’ed skeletons could 1 shot a gryphon and take no damage in the process except from his Tower). And the Doom Grasps ended up being useful to clear out Guardian of the Gates.
