phoboloc might not have won the match, but he definitely won my heart with his dedication to the MC prod

50:20 😂 I guess the jokes on me and him. He was scared you were gonna flip banker with your insulation surely 😂

[@marsexpert4276]

Yeah, Insulation wouldn't have mattered 😅😂

29:00 I'm not sure the possibility of getting a space discount you want to play (or Olympus I guess) would say Business Contacts first in this spot. I feel like I would have done exactly what you did here and stuck with the usual path of the blind draw first to maximize your information for later choices.

[@marsexpert4276]

Yeah - either way you go you risk something.

[@bastange8856]

31:16 I would have kept the insulation, just for a potential banker flip. He is basically poised to take it at some point soonish.

[@marsexpert4276]

Yeah I could've thought about it, but at that point I only had 4 heat prod, temperature was low and the endgame far away, so it would've been a really long term investment.

I couldn't believe you passed him Immigration Shuttles at that point in the game - it was worth ~2 VPs already, he had mad titanium spending power, and he hadn't broken Banker wide open yet. Still, that was a very healthy W against a considerable Jovian build.

[@bluemoon8773]

He also had an amazing start, he played only good cards first few gens, I thought he was gonna win, mars u, quality jovs, but then he started MC prod meme thing and I honestly thought it's gonna be at least 50 points diff for you

[@marsexpert4276]

Yeah he definitely had a good engine going - at some points he should have converted that into more points tho...
