Worst first turn ever...-.- https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=2507.msg20328#msg20328

Started up the game, and went to fight Fake Gods. My very first game I got up against Chaos Lord, and he got to go first. This is his first turn (I haven't taken my turn yet):



Anyone else have horrible first turns to share?

Hahahaha. Ouch...

I must admit, I was looking at that for a few seconds thinking 'if that's a bad hand, he should see me when I draw no pillars'... Then I reali\ed that Deja Vu is going to do more than duplicate!

I had a similar experience against Chaos Lord, except he had a Fallen Druid in play and his two Deja Vu's could Steal and Destroy... He also went steal-happy on my pillars early on... Damn you increasingly-smarter-than-the-average-bear AI.

12/6 shrieker with dive on first turn for chaos lord. Against a no sundial deck.  ^-^.

And that wouldn't be TOO bad. He only has 1 time quantum, after all, so you could kill it before it does too much damage, since your hand didn't look very bad.

I still lost the game, though (and so did everyone else. :P)

Yeah, with 4 Quantum Towers there's a good chance to get that 1 Earth quantum needed for Protect Artifact (or 2 Entropy quantum to play Supernova).

That opening scenario is not a disaster itself, it all depends on what you and the False God draw next. If you draw an Otyugh for example, your situation will be much better. Chaos Lord only has one damage on the table so in theory you can keep drawing cards for a long time.

It's not a great start but it's not a bad one either imo. No Pillars or Supernovas in your hand is still the king of bad first turns.

I once got 8 pillars vs seism. And kept drawing pillars for 3 turns. Not good.

Are you kidding?  That's great!  You can play out his Earthquakes dropping 1 pillar at a time, and when he runs out, drop the rest and be ready to actually cast whatever comes next.

It's not like you ever beat Seism without dipping into the near-single-digits in health around turn 8 anyway. :)
If something happens and you think it deserves my attention, feel free to PM me. Other than that, I'm probably here if you want to shoot the breeze.
