Mint with the heroes at 7/6/3 and 14 cards in Baron Blade’s discard pile. I guess my heroes were a bit more reckless on taking damage than other teams here, but with Baron Blade’s ticking clock they just threw caution to the wind.
Oh, and 4 “Hasten Doom” cards in a row on Blade’s second turn?!?!?! I don’t know what was worse, Blade beating up on the heroes and destroying all kinds of bots and constructs, or Blade getting 4 more cards into his discard pile. Truly, the person who came up with that card order is evil, cruel AND sadistic! ™
After Blade’s second turn, I was wondering if Unity was going to survive, but she rallied and quickly got a bot army growing that did seemly exponentially increasing damage. Way to go, Unity-bot!
The environment actually wasn’t horrible this game. “General Armstrong” coming out on the first turn was nice, and he helped temper the damage from other environment cards. Again, I didn’t think he was going to survive (“Cryo Bot” played right before Blade played his 4 consecutive “Hasten Doom” card send some unfortunate collateral damage his way) but he also rallied and stood strong, doing some consistent damage to Blade. In fact, it was the General who flipped Blade to his back side AND defeated him. Way to go, General Armstrong! I was also able to set Radioactivist up to make a big attack on Baron Blade, which was nice.
Fun match. 5/5. Would fight again.
