Blasted obnoxious order of draw. Draw the garrison earlier, and I can fetch KotCs and get DS.

Trying this again, it’s nice having reliable enough cycle that I can just drop MT and Elite Training when needed. Just have to prioritize keeping Oni alive. Really hoping zhavier is out of tricks this time.

@zhavier’s turn!

One too many runes on both DSs? You played no units after Sam’s arrival but he ended up with 1 rune is what made me look

I’ll fix that; holdover from when I was about to play something else and then remembered I needed 5 gold, not 4.

I made way too many mistakes that turn and shall be conceding, though I suspect I wouldn’t be surviving even had i played that turn better.

GG!

GG! I’m a little sad that my gameplan was basically just straight Peace, but I imagine some of these matches will just be heavy into one spec.

Out of interest, what were the mistakes?

I should have recognized the threat of MT on lobber and patrolled Setsuki. And Quince could have killed Newsman instead of Cadet, leaving him at 1/4 instead, by changing BB target.
