This feels like a LB spam and tech 1 / ultis game, play black bros HH, lean on Hoodie and Stewie for backup and pressure.
Crappy first hand, maybe next turn go Fargo + Skele + Nullcraft, then LB and tech 1 and HH, then keep the full court press. Probably will want sickness for Hounds

Fuck that newsman on 2 is actually a serious PITA, and Aven protecting BI is just enough to make building tech 1 really hurt here… I think i’ll risk the 55% I draw time spiral so I can just kill the newsman (hopefully), and the backup plan will be… I don’t know? Tech1 + tower next turn? I wish I had gotten something other than plasmo last turn…

This is really rough… spose I will get the tech1 up, grab stewardess and Hoodie, and hope no Arrest that tries to kill Garth… and if it does, I spose I will maxband orpal to try and pop some fools? stupid newsman and plasmo turn 1… ugh…

Well finally I can get rid of that nuissance Newsman at least… Plasmo online. I’ve got some card advantage which is good, but I’m up against Zane and Quince getting near duplication mode. If I felt confident I could keep the tech2 next turn, I’d go for Archons… Past still seems like a good choice though. Sure Ghoul would be good to pop stuff, but rememberer can be a great fetch if I keep Time Spiral, and having the option to go archons will be good. nether drain + shimmer ray for now then, next turn I can Orpal max to move stuff or I can Lich’s Bargain as well.
Lol not much to talk about i don’t think. Rough opening draw for me and I couldn’t get aven or newsman dealt with in time. You played appropriately aggressive and had the right draws line up. I got fixated on early lb as the answer but newsman on 2 was huge as a blocker. I should have recognized needing tech 1 for stewardess.
I’ll pack it in here, I can continue stalling but it won’t get the job done in the end.
GG! This was P1 Blue vs P2 Purple after all. You were double disadvantaged and well fought in a difficult position. Your T2 patrol I thought was especially brilliant. I see you had a rough opening hand. Maybe Tinkerer was an option ILO Garth after my opening Newsman #2.
It was trying to fish for technician to maximize Time spiral draw potential, so I could come hard with plasmo. Mtruth was the weakness and you got the hit.
Hindsight I should have gone orpal first and tried for carrion curse perhaps. Bleeding your cards when you were already leaning hard on aggro might have done the difference. I’m so used to blue v black I sometimes forget how inaccessible Newsman can be.
Yea, agreed on Orpal as a better option. Is actually what I feared the most. Garth wasn’t too much of a threat tbh. Purple against blue is really tough. I would say is worse than blue vs black. Especially when Blue takes P1. Blue at least can try to be on par with Black when is P1 but Purple will have hard time even as P1 against blue.
Oh I strongly disagree that it’s worse than blue v black, tougher than I remembered sure but blue v black has been pretty well demonstrated to be the worst matchup in the game. Happy to play some MMM blue v purple if you disagree
Psyched to see what you have on deck for FFA, I’m pretty happy with my position there right now XD
Not disagreeing blue is weak against black. Blue P1 will still have a hard time against black and Blue P2 is just very weak against black P1. I’m not good at Purple so I feel like Purple is just hard in general I think. I do believe Purple is especially weak against Blue though. You and I played at least 6 or 7 blue starter vs black starter and blue player won every single one of them if I recall correctly.
