My Thoughts
There’s two lines to explore here. Charge + Brogre, or working Max Zane and trying to fish up the other Ancient
…
Zane + MM + Dog is 4g, that’s enough for BA to kill River then transfer 2x runes to Mad Man to kill quince. Now Zane at 5, can kill BT for 1g, then maxband with that to snipe Techn, pop it, and dig up BA. BA and float 1, Arg kills Lookout, Rambaster breaks T2
Zane + Brogre + Charge, transfer one rune, Brogre kills SQL, Mad Man and transfer two… yeah this is already worse as I use more cards, don’t get the BA down, etc…
…
Okay so now the only question is should I break the T1 or T2? Fencers are actually the scarier thing than the Garrison, I can easily overwhelm that next turn. T1 it is
