Non-Nar Snowball

My second game today was against GinsuBlender. I moved from the second Twilight War test deck to my third one. Tiller would go first this time. Yes, same starting magi. With the Forest Well being a relic, he seemed to be a good choice to try and setup the next two magi. Tiller wasn't doing too great on creatures in the opening hand, keeping his Weebo in hand, he would play a Forest Jile. Odavast would toss down big with Ice Arboll, Zyavu, Aegris, and Mombak. It was an awesome start for the Nar Magi, but it would cost most of the card resources. Tiller had a hand full of relics, so I opted to run the Robe of Vines and Orwin's Ring combo to combat the fact that the Nar creatures would lose two less in attacks by coming up with two extra energy per creature. In the end, Odavast would overrun Tiller. With Salafy, I had another copy each of Orwin's Ring and Robe of Vines in my hand. With a second Forest Jile in hand, protoge would mean an unlimited supply of creatures. Granted, I did toss down big by this point. A Furok, Forest Jile, Rabbage, and Fird does make for a big toss down, especially with each of them gaining two energy by the end of the turn. Tap Roots would take one of Odavast's creatures and make that one big Fird. I wish I had captured a picture of that five energy Fird. Anyways, Salafy would begin to build steam. After attacking to defeat Odavast on her next turn, she would use the power of the Forest Jile. Salafy was getting out of hand. Erisa would toss down a Blizzard Hyren, Mombak, and Djarmander which made me glad that my relics were all driving my energy gains by effects instead of powers. Salafy would steam her way through Erisa and GinsuBlender would concede the game because they didn't have anything to “stop things from snowballing. No pun intended.” When we got back to the chat room, I told GinsuBlender that although no pun was intended, it did make a great pun. And as I told my wife and sister, to have Nar suffering from a non-Nar snowball, it was a great pun indeed.


Oh yeah, the deck I was using is a Flood of Energy deck, and it was tempting to use the copies of the spell I had in hand just after defeating Odavast but I figured that would just be overkill. Again no pic, but mostly because I didn't get a screen capture before my opponent left the game after they conceded (I was more in a chatting mood...).
