Girom 2 - 1 Jen-i
Boldly Jen-i marched to battle - and now in the smoking ruin left behind Jen-i sits and contemplates the bitter taste of defeat. Perhaps my nemesis is not the RNG - perhaps my skills have deceived me. Perhaps I am not Jen-i, Prince of Pirates, Slayer of the Hoard, Dread Pirate of the 9 Seas. Perhaps, just maybe I'm still just Wesley, the farmboy - perhaps I should give up this life of adventure and retire (I have after all collected quite a sum of electrum).

My early Earthquakes combined with Pulvies power left him quanta starved for more than half the game - but with 2 Squids in play I could not get enough damage through to kill my enemy. As it was Girom won with 6HP remaining.

Game 3 however was a nightmare - not only did I not have an Arsenic in my opening hand - I didn't have any weapon at all. And while I drew a staff quickly the first Arsenic wasn't found until 17 turns into the game - sadly with only 6 cards left in the deck after that it was far too late to make enough of a difference - I lost by deck out having killed many of his creatures with plagues and while hiding securely behind my bonewalls.
