Absolutely incredible set of games against trboye, yanakis, ivanbuba, and cille! Holy shit; I rarely have even 1 active game as exciting as all 3 of these were. Escalating at its best... the opening objectives of tert count and bonuses only served to give one team an advantage - the games were truly decided by late-game Esc play (and dice, but that made it exciting).
I swept one game by easily killing off a teammate...
After that, I was 90% to take out an enemy player with 5 cards, and then I coasted.
In another game, I had 2 pair, but they left me 77% (8v1,2,1) to kill my teammate and take his cards!
It came down to 4v1, but I fucking lost! They will kill him and will probably sweep.
In the third game (probably the tiebreaker), I found that Teal would be 56% to kill our Blue player (with 5 cards).
I deployed 2 on Blue to make Teal 36% to kill him and 1 on me, to help me get a card.
I proceeded to lose my 3v1, 2v1, and 2v1, and am now stuck with 3 cards and all 1s... f*ck!
I am hoping Teal fails to kill Blue, and we stay alive... but it's not looking good.
They will probably take that third game, but my last set of turns were a blast, so I won't be too angry at our loss... even though it is painful to come so close and lose. It's a great feeling to actually get a rush from my games again... I suppose most of my recent games have never really been in doubt, and that's no fun.
