Fought a speed poison and outrushed it. Jijo had a great hand, he drew like 5 poisons quite fast. My recluses were faster though.

Ji brought a grabbow. If it wasn't for my early dim shield, he would have rushed me. Early arsenic and a relatively fast dragon did their job though.

I was hoping I could win here, but luck wanted it otherwise. I had all 3 discords in my hand and only a single dragon with a chaos power. My discord power did not hold out long enough for him to prevent playing the wings + recluse combo before my dragon ate him. So even with the double CP on the dragon, I was like 3 turns away from winning when Wings hit the field. Early stalkers could have changed the outcome I think.

I faced a discord/recluse/AM deck. Ji had slow quanta first and so did I. He kept his spiders for a drop bomb while I amassed stall cards. When they dropped, I plagued them and blocked them with wardens; then aflatoxined his field and a few turns later 23 malignant cells smiled on me. Then something unexpected happened: Ji played a Butterfly Effect on one of his cells and destroyed my shield immediately. Luckily I had a plague and a stone skin in my hand. If I hadn't, I would have lost this.

Good games!
