Game 6: I'm really tempted to open double Lurker and rush the pile, especially if the opponent buys no lurkers in their opening. I don't know if it's good, but with CQ, Wharf, and Goons on the table, I couldn't pass up trying it.

Post by: Burning Skull on August 05, 2017, 06:14:54 am: Well, I have no idea how to use Lurkers correctly.
Not sure if you want to *rush* them, but probably you want more than just two here.

But since I don't know how to read phonetic spellings, I read that as 'Katie'

It had one terribly wanky board with Tomb, Fortress, Develop, Chapel, Horns, and enough draw for all this craziness (43 minutes (https://youtu.be/uxPCVnSA_lU?t=43m6s) into the video).
Would like to hear some comments on this board, definitely one of the coolest I got recently

Really enjoyed playing this match

I am super sad about
that Border Village game,
and also I misplayed
that Gear game (never used Quest),
and also I am sad about
Merchant Guilds game. Not sure what I could have done better here. Maybe I just made it too complicated and simpler approach was a way to go?

Ten copies of which card you get into your deck by ignoring Young Witch? (right, Curses)

Turns out in games with Treasure Maps on the board the person who gets more Maps wins!

I think you asked for some suggestions on the commentary so I'd suggest starting something like forager/forager/forager/marauder/scheme/throne room. This should make a tighter deck before adding spoils and pushing for markets. Marauder+spoils takes 2 cards out of a 5 card hand so that's fine for mid game acceleration but doesn't sustain a greening deck. The wandering minstrels should be leaving good actions on top of your deck, not ruins and marauders, so they need to be finely managed but even then I think schemes can be tidier here.

I'm always asking for suggestions/advice etc. Thank you.
