Blast from the Past: ZZW 84 with Plejades
Posted on December 12, 2010 by Plejades
Very cool plug in, each pick with an explanation of why it was picked is very nice.
You are almost as lucky as I am! I’d prefer to see a deck construction video or a deck list after the draft viewer.
I will make sure to include the deck construction part next time I do this.
Wow that guy in your first round was an ass.
Thank you for this cool insight into your game!
Round 2 game 2, you cast Lethargy Trap and block his Shepherd of the Lost with your Jagwasp Swarm and let in the Hookmaster. Why didn’t you block the Shepherd with the Tern and Pilgrim’s Eye, and the Hookmaster with the Swarm?
Good catch, peetee! I should have done that. I guess I just overlooked it while playing.
and while commentating
nice videos what bugs me a bit is that you talk as if you dint know what happens in the game but you played them already…
I usually try to record live but couldn’t this time due to background noises. I guess I just felt that it does not matter much to comment “as if.”
I am going to record live again whenever I can and will make sure to change the comment style when replaying games. Thanks for the feedback
Match 2 Round 1 I would probably have attacked with all 3 vampires, because the first strike damage would turn on the Guul Draz and you’d have a good chance of killing him next turn. (Of course, he had Searing Blaze so it didn’t really matter, but still.)
Hello Rowan,
I felt that the risk was higher then the reward. Red has usually a bunch of hasters and I just did not want to increase his outs considerably to finish the game right there. He was holding two cards and it’s quite possible that one of them was a Crusher Zendikon or another haster such as Akoum Battlesinger that he kept because of the first striker on board. It did not matter much as you pointed out but I am not sure if I wouldn’t make the same decision again there…
If he had Crusher Zendikon he would have just suited it up with the Kitesail and killed you no matter what.
But you are right that he might have some kinda haste guy, so I would actually just swing with the Guul Draz and the Hexmage and leave the Blood Seeker back to block.
Good point. I could have played tighter there. I did not remember the situation that well so I checked the video again and agree with your suggestion.
