OHS Season 40 - Reverse Draft (BYOG) - CONGRATS BOROMIR96

[Dad_Scaper]

Will we also be on discord? Or are those mutually exclusive? <- old person question

[Dysole]

I have a setup that allows me to talk to both my opponent on Discord and the stream on Twitch. It comes in quite handy for this.

~Dysole, looking forward to the game

Playing tonight @ 7 pm EST

-------------------------------

Edit: I got the win with the Kaemon rat screen.

I spent round 1 setting up my rats + Kaemon on the height just north of the SZ while Superfrog opened with spreading out Ants all over the map, including grabbing both glyphs. Kaemon killed the only ant inside his SA range.

Round 2, Superfrog went all OMs on Einar Imperium and I had them all on Kaemon, which was a mistake. I should definitely have had OM1 on rats to fill some holes around Kaemon & Raelin. Superfrog took advantage well, setting up EI outside of Kaemon's SA range on the first OM and then sent in 2 to attack Raelin on OM2. They were only able to do 2 damage to Raelin over 4 attacks though. Kaemon responded by killing one of them. SF's OM3 saw another EI join Raelin and set up with the last 2 to the middle of the board, but again was only able to put 2 wounds on Raelin. Kaemon killed a 2nd EI on his turn.

Round 3, OMs were all the same. SF won init and finished off Raelin, then Kaemon killed a 3rd EI. The EI then moved adjacent to Kaemon, who had height. EI picked a bad time for poor rolls though, hitting a 0/3 -> 1/5 & 1/3 -> 2/5, with counter strike killing both. Kaemon then moved forward and killed the last EI before safely retreating back behind the rat screen on his OM3.

The next 4-5 rounds were a big slug fest, with 11 ants charging into 16 rats surrounding Kaemon. Kaemon's attacks weren't the best and SF had some nicely timed 2/2 blocks, and ants did a little better than average eating through the rats. With 3 ants left, SF finally was able to get one adjacent to Kaemon, who threw a 2/2 into 0/5, putting the first 2 wounds on Kaemon. Kaemon was able to kill the last 3 ants though without taking further damage, setting up an end game of Marcus + Fraser v. Kaemon (2 life) + 3 ants.

Marcus charged up valiantly, but Kaemon killed him in 2 turns with ranged regular attacks from height (4/5 -> 0/3 & 2/5 -> 0/3). Kaemon then finished off Fraser with SF's OMs all on Marcus.

gg Superfrog, tough matchup after those 2 EI whiffs into Kaemon.

Vydar is the man defeated me with my Blackgaard army. Going in, my plan was to get Augamo onto Jalgard and then use the Specters + Q10 to clear out the remaining knights. Unfortunately, I severely overestimated how tanky Augamo would be on the +2 defense glyph. After managing to get him on the glyph T1 R2, I was expecting him to last at least a couple of rounds, allowing me to really begin digging in to VITM's army. Instead, he died on the final turn of round 2. I did my best with the Specters and Q10, but the Jalgard-backed knights proved too difficult to destroy and VITM ended up winning with 6 Blackgaard and 3 Armocs remaining. gg @Vydar is the man ; wish I'd more closely examined the probability charts before going in to the bidding.

~Dysole, moving it on out

[Dad_Scaper]

Ok cool. I’ll be muted on and off for the first 20 minutes or so.

[kevindola]

Hero and I are playing tomorrow. Either starting between 3-4pm central or after 9pm central.

He has my army. I have his army (-255 points)

[mtl1998]

AgentWard and I are starting very soon. Still bidding down the Cyprien and Braxas army.

Edit: I have Cyprien, Sonya, and 8 rats.

AgentWard ended up forfeiting with an Izumi and Isamu left against a Cyprien that had eaten very well. For several rounds, we bid away the rats, Sonya, and Kira Jax until we had hit a point where it was solely Cyprien and Braxas. AgentWard let me have my army with the vamps and two squads of rats. I was nervous to play his unique squad army against either Braxas or Cyprien with Sonya but I knew it was going to be difficult to get the win.

I spent my first round developing rats and Cyprien. I was able to grab AgentWard's unique attack glyph, but Eldgrim had snagged my defense +2 glyph. My goal was to stick a rat on my glyph and keep Agent off of his. Once I had removed Eldgrim and settled with enough rats in scatter range the defense glyph, Cyprien began to eat. Life Drain was incredibly important this game. Cyprien healed about 12 wounds the entire game. Really, this was an ideal matchup for Cyprien. With all the cards to spread OMs to, Cyprien could choose whoever was sleeping or about to receive an OM to attack and stay away from the biggest threats. There was one point where Agent went all in with Sam Brown for a couple of rounds. This slowed down Cyprien and forced a 1v1 but Cyprien prevailed thanks to his 6 defense.

gg, AgentWard. I enjoy the reverse draft format but having a bonkers good glyph in this game to support my carry was a different variable that I haven't seen in a tournament setting.

[Muskie]

Great game with Captain Stupendous! The Einar rolled well, but his Q10 was a beast! It also helps if I read the Maine card completely!!! Cap. had a great strategy, and had me second guessing my plan from the git go. Good win for him. Unfortunately, I will need to drop out of the tournament. Good luck to everyone. I let Dysole know! Thanks everyone and thanks Cap for a fun game.

[kevindola]

I got the win in my game with Hero. I managed to take out one of the Ice Elementals and a couple Yari before Talingul normal attacks from a distance killed MBS.

I pinged with Kaemon while Jax and Talingul strafed, but when Talingul got in close I switched to Romans. Hero kept his OMs on the heroes and even without a bonder, my 4 attacks were able to eventually bring down Jax/GIE #2/Talingul losing just 3 Romans. That left the Yari against Romans with height and full health Kaemon. Hero89 declined that matchup.

gg man. I hope you can give online scape another chance with a format more to your taste!
