Last night I was in a league match where I missed seeing a rush win scenario at the start. It was a game with colonies and I started building towards getting them. I had hit a 9 buy early and so had a quick platinum giving me early position for money. Well I balked looking at the board seeing Feodum and Masterpiece sitting there. So when I had hit my second 9 I bought another platinum. It wasn't til my opponent hit a big count and hammered on Masterpiece that I connected the dots of what he was going for.
Long story short thanks to my money advantage I was able to make a rush and up the ground. we split feodums but with masterpiece and my couple platinums I over ran him on the silver race. There was only two masterpieces left when the silver and feodums where gone. I feel a little lucky to win as I had never thought to go that route at the start.
