I was expecting either an EQ deck or a BH deck or some combination of them. As luck would have it I let calindu pick a random number for the deck he'd face and he picked one I felt good about.
Game 1a: Ironically my best draw overall with a 2 pillar split off the draw but we desync'd on the 2nd turn.
Game 1b: Not a good draw for either of us as I got 1 pillar to his 1 pillar/1 pend. He hit me quickly with EQ but I topdecked a tower to keep my quanta trickling in. I played out a Forest Spirit and my Arsenic and he countered with a BB (this is the start of a theme) and an Elite Charger. I was able to Lightning the Elite Charger and let my Arsenic whittle away at him. He dropped a Pulverizer but I had a Deflagration in hand to counter it quickly. Halfway through my deck I was still stuck at only 2 pillars all game but I finally drew a Nova that let me evolve a Graboid to barely stay ahead of him in the damage race. My Fog Shield haxxing his Colossal Dragon a few times was big factor. I decided to not play my Reverse Time or Sanctuary to keep them hidden.
Game 2: Another uninspiring draw with 2 towers, so I played just 1 and kept the other for after his EQ. I was able to play a super early Fog Shield and topdecked a Nova right after his first EQ. This was the start of the 4 turn parade of BB's. I played out a Graboid and Lycan but was stuck at 1
. Next turn I evolve and he BB's the shrieker, so I play a Steel Golem and he BB's that, then I play a Forest Spirit and he BB's that, then I play a Flesh Spider and he BB's that. 4 turns in a row he hits me with BB and I'm still stuck at 1
. Drew a Graboid and played it but didn't evolve it to keep the 2
to let my Reverse Time stay in play. He played a Colossal Dragon and I decided not to RT it since the Fog Shield was out, but I did RT his Elite Charger since he was at 4
and would need 2 turns to play it out again. Finally the BB on my first Shrieker wears off and he hits it with BB again. My 18th card is finally another Nova so I evolve the Graboid and Lycan (he dropped BB #6 on the Shrieker) and slowly whittled him down as my creatures started coming out of BB.
Game 3a: I was on the Waiting screen forever so I went to cancel and search again and I clicked cancel the instant it pinged the game starting. Lucky for him since he said he was a 1 pillar draw.
Game 3b: I was in with a another 2 tower draw but he wasn't.
Game 3c: My worst draw yet with only a single Nova. Had to Discard an Arsenic (or Spider I forget) before getting my first pillar on my 10th card, which he quickly EQ'd. Got a golem out but that was BB'd. He played out an Elite Charger but I used my time quanta to RT it since he'd need 3 turns to play it out again. Got a tower on my 12th card and played out a Graboid but again EQ. Played a Lycan and Spirit and didn't evolve my Graboid but he BB'd them both. Next turn I evolve but he BB'd that too and played out a Pulverizer. I had an Arsenic, Fog Shield, and Sanctuary ready to play but that Pulverizer was mocking me. Meanwhile this lone Lightning in my hand since the draw was still stuck there on 1
. Got a Nova for my 17th card and was able to take down the Charger finally. I got another tower out and much to my suprise he didn't EQ or Pulverize it for about 3 turns. That let me get enough quanta to play a Deflag on his pillar and drop my Arsenic/Sanc/Fog combo. It was still really close and he played his second Pulverizer but my lone nightmare decided to make its first and only appearance of the match, and just when he had a completely empty hand too. I played it and evolved a Graboid to give me just enough damage to win.
