2012 / Round 3: sm defeats Beyond Awesome 4:3:1

« on: December 18, 2012, 04:05:46 am »

This was a very fun and close match.

Game 1:
http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201212/17/game-20121217-231246-00262e05.html
Beyond Awesome 22 sm 21
Beyond Awesome went for IGG + single Jack + green, I tried to diversify with multiple utility cards.

Game 2:
http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201212/17/game-20121217-231927-a76d4790.html
A tie 30/30.
I gambled that my ooponent would not be able to finish on his last turn, but extra cards from Governor made it easier for him.

Game 3:
http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201212/17/game-20121217-230354-94cce574.html
Beyond Awesome 67  sm 55
I was outplayed here - I could not stick to a single game plan and was punished.

Game 4:
http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201212/17/game-20121217-232551-5bc465d7.html
Sm 27 Beyond Awesome 25
My opponent could have won on piles but let me steal the victory.

Game 5:
http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201212/17/game-20121217-234211-34945e4a.html
Sm 16 Beyond Awesome 7
A slog of a game.
I won curses split and greened better.

Game 7:
http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201212/17/game-20121217-234803-683aa599.html
Beyond Awesome 52 sm 36
Beyond Awesome went for BM + smithy which was probably right.
I tried nv/smithy/mine/develop plan but it was too slow.

Game 8:
http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201212/17/game-20121217-235808-46a30c6e.html
Sm 26 Beyond Awesome 21
Probably the most interesting board of the whole match:
cards in supply: Adventurer, Apothecary, Apprentice, Explorer, Fool's Gold, Highway, King's Court, Potion, Rabble, Sea Hag, and Woodcutter
The game was rather long because of curses.
We both opened woodcutter/potion - I am still not sure it is better than sea hag/silver.
Beyond Awesome got most fool golds and started greening, I tried to build an engine with KC, highways and +buys, focusing on early apprentices.
Somehow it worked (and KCing the sea hag helped a bit).

I am not very sure about game order and I do not have a log for one game which I won (it featured moat, mountain bank, hop, apprentice, GM, baron and nomad camp).
I went for silver/baron, my opp - for silver/nomad camp and I got early edge getting $7 on first reshuffle (mountain camp + moat).
I managed to get a bunch of apprentices and a horn, trashed tightly, got most of GMs. I missed an opportunity to finish game on piles, but was far ahead (something like 20 to 5) and was lucky enough to finish next turn.

Beyond Awesome, please post the link to this game f you happen to have a log for this game (I think it was game #6).

2012 / sm defeats jake11111 4:0

« on: December 04, 2012, 11:38:25 pm »

Game 1:
sm: 41 jake11111: 35  http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201212/04/game-20121204-192036-642ecf20.html
With baron/expand on board it was a highway rush.
I won the split 6/4. I also had a couple of embassies that helped a bit.
Not sure whether scout was good enough here.

Game 2:
sm: 14 Jake1111: 3 http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201212/04/game-20121204-194219-efeb20dc.html
I opened silver/Young witch, planning to grab trading post asap and then go into minions.
Jake started with shanty town/loan - in the end he trashed coppers faster, but could not make $5 often.
He did not buy witch until quite late and got slowed down by my witch.

Game 3:
sm: 69 Jake1111: 54 http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201212/04/game-20121204-200530-b4aec01d.html
The plan was to get walled villages/embassies with a few treasures and bishops (so opponents possessions do  nothing).
It did not work very well - I never trashed down to bare minimum and the game was close. I also should have trashed silver with loan once or twice - and I did not.
Jake possessed himself at least once and bishoped out something from my hand giving me extra VPs.

Game 4:
sm: 41 jake1111: 33 http://dominion.isotropic.org/gamelog/201212/04/game-20121204-201254-19d47061.html
Plan was to get apothecaries/bank/upgrade (to get rid of estates and to remove green cards from top after apothecary).
I thought I might get copper smith if I do not hit $5 or inn with a mass reshuffle near the end.
It pretty much worked.
Jake went for talisman which was too slow for this pool.

Good games!
