Thoughts

So, I want to keep ninjas because fox’s den students will be great and all my hero spells are pretty great. that said, he can kill me very quickly with war drums and bloodlust. But Rook being out is hopeful, as earthquake will take longer to kill me, I think. Given that he should be worried about my ninjas on p2t3, hopefully that gives me some breathing room. We will see how dead I am after his t3.

I should kill at least one bird with the tower, unless he teched a bird and an earthquake, and decides to blow the earthquake before actually doing damage to my other stuff. Im going to guess double brids though. Well, lets see how this goes

Yeah, I made a strategic decision to not play around double TPS, relying only on the difficulty of assembling it to protect me :slight_smile:

Indeed fortune smiled brightly on @zhavier this game. Hurray map cards! lol

It was a gamble, but I saw it as acceptable risk when I teched the second 1, because I knew 4 cards were all lined up. And thought I might still pull out FDS before I was finished off. That might not have been true though :slight_smile:
