[XCAPS22] Round4: P1 charnel_mouse [Necromancy]/Anarchy/Blood vs P2 FrozenStorm [Demonology/Necromancy]/Finesse

@charnel_mouse I took the liberty of making our thread in case it slipped by ya, but I am afraid you must be first to act :wink: GL HF!

Sorry, been rather busy during Holy Week. Let the Necromancy hellmatch begin once again.

Relevant changes:

  • Garth’s midband stats are 2/3 instead of 2/4
  • Vandy loses Resist 1 at midband
  • Lich’s Bargain takes 6 base damage instead of 4
  • Pirate Gunship loses obliterate 2

P1T1

Starting hand: 5

Skeleton Javelineer
Graveyard
Skeletal Archery
Deteriorate
Sacrifice the Weak

Thoughts

FrozenStorm can probably get a comfortable Skeleton spam game going here if he wants to: this deck isn’t great for crowd control, and he has Discord to stop me from doing the same. Going first means that Anarchy III is a long way away, and I’ve drawn Graveyard and both good spells in my first hand to top it off. 5 gold over the next two turns, after workers + Tech I, leaves me enough for Graveyard + Imp/Jandra + Haunt. That’s a slow start, and Vandy can recover the card burn. Alternatively, Skeletal Archery + Garth + Skeleton, which is even slower.

I think I still want to shoot for Gunships here, taking Surprise Attack to help try to take out early Skeleton Lords. Garth can help fetch Tanks / Lizzos. Maybe I take Calypso Vystari too, again to help reach Lords / Guides? Calypso Vystari + Lich’s Bargain might not be a bad start.

Main problem with this deck early on, really: no combat hero. Eh, it’s too early for Surprise Attack, and I can’t afford Doom grasp on Vandy if I draw it next turn. Let’s go with Bone Collectors for now, it’s a while before we’ll see River.

My Thoughts

Wise not to bring a hero out. I think I will just clear the board, give myself strong position, I got everything out of the way w/o too much card deficit. Hopefully Dark Pact will get me cycled to a nice Finesse T2 setup. I’m going to get a hero’s hall as well to better my card situation

Thoughts

Zane behind Bone Collector isn’t safe if FrozenStorm’s drawn double Fencer, or Fencer + Deteriorate / Shadow Blade, or can get the latter from Dark Pact. I’ll bring in Garth + Skeleton for a safer hero play, that helps against Sacrifice the Weak too. Going for Doom Grasp over Surprise Attack: Sharks aren’t so good against Fencers, and with Vandy losing resist it costs the same.

My Thoughts

Well if I get deteriorate that’s a cheap Garth kill, love that. Starlet and Discord should be in the deck and I’m not sure I want to tech up yet, so we’ll tech those for now.

Bummer no Det, so what’s the play now? No Graveyard either, but fencer. I spose Charnel looks to be trying to fast tech for Barrows, so maybe I do a early meta threat? Can’t get tower and tech2, so if they go tower great, I can tech up first and still threaten a break, if tech2 then I can meta it down and be in good position to keep it down. Yea, I like it, let’s do it.


@charnel_mouse your turn :slight_smile:

Hey the two of you, with easter in between I am well aware that this match has a good reason to be way behind the others. But if you could try to not linger around with the difficult decisions you are facing, it would be appreciated greatly!

PS: the penalty algorithm provides completely different sets of matches for the next round depending on who wins this match. So I really don’t like the idea to do the next pairings before this match is decided, which is why I want to encourage you to try to speed it up.

Busiest part of Easter is over now, so I’ll try!

My Thoughts

Good, baited out the tower, that works well for me. Tech up, I think I skip the graveyard for right now as the extra worker matters for pulling off meta moves or maxband grave moves. Lay down the starlet, behind River, she’ll be vulnerable to a garth midband but that’s honestly fine, if that’s what charnel does he isn’t teching up safely and that works well for me

Hey that works great, no board developed, Tech 2 anarchy isn’t super scary but I break the building anyway just for lack of haste options. Haunt can stay, that’s fine. Teching Guide for all the breakage, plus I think Dark Pact just to super fast cycle to getting Maestro and Graveyard down next cycle. That should about seal it for me

Ugh it’s just enough to make it hard to end the game, we’ll continue to grind it out I suppose. I could do tower and keep heroes relatively safe, but I think I prefer skeleton + kill stuff with discord. I should still be okay with split win cons of meta/Fin T2 engine
