It was just so much fun, knowing at the beginning of the opponent's play, he always had no chance. He always had lost, from the beginning... I had my Geralt:Igni right on hand, so I didn't need to francesca him.
Another play: against a Henselt machine gun. All remaining attack force that I had in my hand was Geralt:Igni, I knew I had to shoot down this single opponent's machine, or it would nail my ST troopers down to the ground, because Henselt wasn't played till now, so tactically I moved this 7 point machine to a row, where it would be the highest value, played Geralt:Igni for lousy 7 points gain, but this action truely saved my a.. . Henselt's remaining forces on hand? Support units and - fin d'épisode.
So for me Geralt:Igni is much better than his reputation. He saves one from shooting in your own foot via Scorch.

Igni was never bad to begin with, even after the 5 strength threshold nerf. It's just a card that has the potential of being a very expensive 5 strength gold card. Having cards that can move units to a different row does help a lot. Using weather to bait row stacking also works wonders with Igni, Hailstorm and Lacerate.
RNG:
Eredin versus Drunken Elves - doesn't matter what I played, opponent is what is important.
Third round - Villenslkjhsajhgfdsjkffuckthisname is ticking.
Opponent is having 2 same STR DBPs on the Melee row and 1 Frightener.
Mercenary on the Ranged Row - Ale buffs 1 Protector.
Sage on the Support Row - Ale buffs the other Protector.
Sage on the Support Row - Ale buffs Frightener.
Instant forfeit.

:huh:
Was playing with Eredin with Operator in my deck, against Scoiatael.
1. My opponent uses operator on DBP, I use Summoning Circle and duplicate my unit.
2. Opponent uses SC too, and duplicates another DBP, I use my own Operator.
3. Out comes Iorveth shouting:
He killed one of my Operators but it got me laughing quite a bit. It just had to be that line.
Another time, was also playing monsteragainst monster. I passed early 1st round with card advantage, but my opponent gave me a hard time round 2, which I did win but we both ended up with 0 cards.
Round 3 draw, I get Frightner. I mulligan and end up with Iris. Instead of Forfeiting, I pass. My opponent also passes. Haha! GG

I swear, someone just played 4 Axemen against me and there was NO Operator or Muzzle or Summoning Circle used!
Than the next game I play the following sentence:
Veteran > Battle Maiden into Veteran > Crach into Vet... HARPOONER!!?
What the hell?
I'm so pissed right now...

Just did a hilarious bamboozle:
NG Alchemy: 10 Assire in hand, 10 Leo via buff, 10 Roach in GY, opponent is playing Henselt, I am sitting on Restore with Vesemir.
4 turns before the final one he plays 10 STR Borkh via Royal Decree, clock is ticking, like, half my cards are lined up for Scorching and I am a card down because of friggin Thaler, as my opponent is also having the three "ALERT!" guys from his hand cause I upped him with 20 cause of said Thaler and waiting for a bigger target to use Mandrake on so I can do the bamboozle. Happily he kinda screwed up for himself here and played a Ballista (he was looking at my revealed Fringilla, he should presume I am sitting on Restore), so, my final turn: Restore into Vesemir and a quick Mandrake on his Ballista for the 12 strengthening - Borkh scorching the shit out of it and than my opponent plays his last card... a Scorch on Borkh.
So satisfying. Was an instant GG for both of us.

Just had a hilarious one:
playing this Rad Control thing against an Eredin deck and ALL GAME I am denied of units and managed to pull only 1 gold - spells only, an Aretuza here, a Witch Hunter there. Anyways, won the first round relatively quick, cause I won the CF and of heavy weather and reseted his Toad in Imperial Manticore. I guess it was enough.
R2 I decide I need to play cause, well... I don't have much to play with, so I bleed him a bit.
R3 I have 1 Alzur's Thunder, 1 Lacerate, Keira, SK Storm and Radovid - sweet baby Jesus - what a tremendous combo!
He plays Eredin on Melle and pulls a Rider on the Siege (???). I AThunder the Rider. He plays White Frost... on Melle and Ranged. I'm like "Errr"... so I play SK Storm on Eredin, he throws an Iris into the frost... which is funny, cause I had to mulligan her in R3 and his Rider is on the Ranged row. Well, this was the easiest lock in the game... and he forfeited.
No GG for me - no GG for him -> end of discussion.
But it was a funny game... for me at least with the clunky draws.

Crafted a Shupe deck using Eredin and a whole lot of "Create" cards. Entered casual, faced a Tuirseach SK deck. Here's the end-of-game board, which shows the unusual plays Create can create cause:
Caretaker was used on a Skirmisher (Jade Figurine in the image).
