thanks for the nice game today with ad_yer.
Even though this tournament doesnt force you to play the weak mages as you only have maximum 7 games (so skip warlord, priest, beastmasters for example), i wanted to go for the warlord. The bloodwave one, the idea is mainly evolved around strong bridge trolls and some equipment. I was facing a wizard, very hard matchup.
And it was an earth wizard, expecting charmyna like hell builds I had to be a bit on the offense, but as my set up also takes time and the guarding iron golem is nothing to ignore, i made a very slow approach.
The game was though and not very clear, when the jelly died with a ballista shot and a warlord attack (i had ini next turn so a rock could have followed) I was slightly ahead and could pull it out.
In the end ad_yer disconnected but we agreed to leave it, prepared cards where arcane ward (for the poison blood) and dissolve (for whatever comes) from him and i had an vet belt from the forge a purify (if i get arcane warded on the pb) and a dispel (if he nullifys me). So he would have dissolved the vet belt directly (but i have another for next round), and i purify myself so arcane ward wont help. and second action i heal myself with the wand again. He will get two attacks from the orc and troll and my other two creatures keep up.
So net he would have got nothing out of that round and so on, he is just to much behind in actions, and with chitin armor, vet belt, harshforgeplate, an elemtal wand for acid ball and the action advantage it was clear.
Thanks for the game, it was close
