Sandra Trueblade is the best example of tempo since it not only slows your opponent down but it leaves you with an ally to attack with she is a Puwen Bloodhelm and a Here Be Monsters in one card at a lower resource cost).ģ.
You might think that Rain Delay falls into this category and that it makes up for the 1-for-0 card disadvantage by granting you tempo, but in reality, Rain Delay just slows you down since it takes time and resources to cast it which could have been instead allocated toward strengthening your defenses, instead of just stalling the game and putting yourself at a card disadvantage. Examples include “Here Be Monsters” which trades 1-for-1 but grants you a tempo advantage. Tempo (Sometimes cards don’t give you a card advantage but they give you some tempo, letting you outpace your opponent. Unless Bazaar is part of your long term strategy, be careful in using it since it gives you both a -1 card advantage and a loss of tempo, since your opponent gets to take advantage of the extra draw before you).Ģ. However, be careful of playing cards like Bad Santa which actually can benefit your opponent more than it benefits you, since playing it when both players have empty hands actually nets you a -1 card advantage because you both gained three cards but you paid one. Obviously, cards that let you draw give you a great advantage in that they slim down your deck and give an immediate card advantage, like Research or Blood Frenzy. If you can get a card to count for two or more, then you are on the right track. Card Advantage (Does the card trade 1-for-1 “okay” or 1-for-0 “bad” or 1-for-2 “excellent” Sandra, Belladonna and Lightning Strike are two clear examples of awesome 1-for-2 trades. This is so that other players, especially new players, will be able to get into advanced, competitive game sooner and offer the rest of us a fun challenge! Here are things I think we should all keep in mind when building strategy into our deck and when tactically dealing with situations mid game:ġ. I had this information scattered around, and I decided to post it here, in one straightforward, condensed location.
