Druid playing volleyball
« on: July 05, 2014, 10:56:12 AM »
This is my first post and I apologize for bad grama and misspelling as English isn’t my native languish.
I just love the Druid and I am doing pretty good against my game group but recently got my ass kick against a better and more expired player. He was playing a swarm Necromancer and I did some stupid mistakes but anyway I would love some critics

My build:

Game plan

Turn 1.  19 mana: Druid´s Leaf ring (2) move 1 Vine Tree (8 ) place Treebond
Turn 2. 19 mana: Harmonize on Vine Tree (4) and Mana flower (4)
Turn 3. 21 mana
Now My Ideer is to adjust my game plan according to my opponent.

Against a slow deff build:
Move forward and cast a big creature my absolut favorite is Kralathor (for some reason I love this creature even though he doesn’t work always well as the bear for me)  and buff it with bear strength
Turn 3: 21 mana (vine tree 3) Vine Tree cast Kralathor (16) Mage cast Bitterwood Fox (5) (food for kralathor) and Bear S (2) FD on Kralathor   
Turn 4: 12 mana Move forward Enchanters Ring (2) and mana flower (4) or rhino Hide (1) FD on Kralathor

Against offensive build:
Turn 3: 21 mana (vine tree 3) Vine tree cast Vine Snapper (7) mage cast mana Flower (4) enchanters ring (2)
Turn 4: 23 mana (vine tree 1) Vine tree cast Vine snapper (7) Mage cast hawkeye FD on Vine snapper and if the opponent mage is close Bloodspine Wall between the Vine Snappers and get ready to play some Volleyball.

force push is really good for pushing enemy mages through bloodspine walls and so is the lvl1 wind attack spell that does a push on 4+ (sorry at work right now and can't remember the card name) I run six of them, six blood spine walls, six rouse the beast, and 4 thornlashers.

It is a good combo to run as a side trick but as a main focus it does tend to be lack luster. What I would do is
2 Bloodspine
2 Wall of thorns
3 force Push's
1 Mage Wand
3 Tele

I run 1 Guardian Angel to protect my tree bond. I would drop the 2 Foxes 1 Snapper 1 Lasher

I would also try to get in 1-2 [mwcard=DNJ06] Nightshade Lotus[/mwcard] and the [mwcard=DNQ08] Vinewhip Staff[/mwcard]


Pos drop the last 2 snapper and 1 of the gloves for 7 points

With 1 whip and 1 Lotus you have 2 free points.

Big problem I have with snapper is it is always rooted so even if you need it to move it can not.

I love the thematic idea of a guardian Angel protecting the tree of life  :)

Do you cast her early in the game ?

I cant believe i haven´t played the Lotus before

I had to drop a Teleport, but then again I will have to se if I need 3 next time I play her
