There’s still time for you to make up your mind. THREE might also be a reasonable compromise. :imp:

33

Lol, no 5 will be fine :slight_smile:

34

I think I found a way around Newsman.

Amended. All this updating of numbers. Tokens on a board are a bit more apparent.

EDIT: Also, my Tech II is Fire, btw.

37

Did you pay the resist 1 for shoving Cadet into Elite ?
Or is the cost cancelled because you have 0 gold ? :slight_smile:

Answered !

38

Amended. (more characters to make this a post)

I assume that Macciatus will let me actually kidnap Reteller, now? Because she’s still whispered when I target her, but as soon as she is on my side, she’s vulnerable again.

41

Yeah you can kidnapp her, I’m about 99% sure :smile_cat:

The rate at which Truth populates the board is just crazy.

The classic way to fight Truth is card depletion, but yay surplus + technician slot just feed my hand incredibly fast :smile_cat:
Mono Red kinda lacks of something to deal with my technician patrollers without increasing my hand ! Shadow Blade, Rewind and Entangled Vines/Thunderclap are almost mandatory against Truth units, especially assisted with Quince + Mirrors :slight_smile:

So you summoned 7, I wiped 5 … bad deal, methinks.
