Folks have been asking about my DNT points in this video, so here's a little behind the scenes info. We recorded this on September 24th, and at the time of recording my points were Mana Crypt 4, Sol Ring 4, Mana Vault 1, Umezawa's Jitte 1. On October 17th, less than a month later, the points list updated, increasing the points on both Mana Crypt + Umezawa's Jitte. If folks are looking to play this DNT list, I'd recommend a points spread of either Mana Crypt 5 + Sol Ring 4 +Mana Vault 1 or Mox Pearl 3 + Strip Mine 3 + Umezawa's Jitte 2 + Mana Vault 1 Happy highlandering!

Amazing games. These two people are amazing, so it figures. That said, these were incredibly difficult puzzles of games. I noticed two points in the games where something different could have happened: - Serge could have used his eather vial after tapping the containment priest and making it lose all abilities until end of turn during the first game. - In the second game, the first time Serge stole the innitiative, he could have played his merfolk lord after combat, giving him one more mana from going into the dungeon so he could have payed the extra 1 and making another merfolk token. It would have ment losing 1 point of damage that turn, but giving him another (buffed) merfolk token to end the game later on. I think...

In the first game serge went for the steal on Aether vial and couldn't find value because of the containment priest that wheeler had which Serge didn't know about. Without the containment priest complication, I personally still really prefer getting rid of Jitte - the allure of both going much faster and shutting down Wheeler's ability to go fast is very tempting but in merfolk I like waiting the extra turn before playing the thief to try and protect the units. Great game 1 tho.
