Game 1a) We desync, and my ai must have misplayed, because I see no way for higs to get past my black holes, but she won on her side, too, as she somehow got a dim out. On my side she never got the quanta, so my AI must have held back on black holes.
Game 1b) LOSS. I get no discord, higs gets phase shield. I have a terrible hand, but higs seems to be missing either fractal or psion, too. Two dims later, still nothing but lobo for higs, and I slowly start taking her down. 3rd dim comes out, then a 4th, and despite desync I can't get around it
Game 2) LOSS. Opening hand sucks, quanta and 3 black holes. Higs only starts with 2 quanta, though, so I might be okay if discord comes quick. I never get anything but black holes until dims land.
Game 3) LOSS. Awful hand again, no discords, no pends even if I topdeck one. RNG is silly and I do topdeck discord that I won't have in time most likely. Higs plays lobo, which is either a misplay, or she has no dims. I double amber around lobo, maybe have a chance now... nope, because 4th dim comes out a turn early; she's played two at 1turn left to be safe vs BH spam. 5th dim in 18 cards and I'm done.
I see no way Higs could have won game 1a vs a human opponent, but 1-3 and 0-3 is no difference in the end. I think 1a is the only game I started with a discord. I had really bad draws, and I think if I'd had average draws, I could have done a lot better, maybe even won. Ideally I'd have gotten amber/discord before dims landed, but I just didn't get the cards at all.
