I’m afraid you can’t play the bloodburn before killing Reputable Newsman, so it can only have one rune on it.

Quick tech achieved. Now we want to seize pressure before he can hit back. Put that building inspector in lookout to squeeze his gold and prevent too much hitting the board. I’ll take a gold either way!
