Ah that was you? Weird game, I kept drawing blakes all the time (he's now out of the test deck). Fun to see a Serena though!

Hey Sol, weird game indeed. I had 1 Nightshade during the whole game, wondering if I forgot to add the others, and I got two more at the last round. In my opening hand I had 3 Throwing knives and 2 Night Prowlers, and I had to sacrifice 1 of each.

However, Lance can keep his allies alive. A second turn Blake protected by Lance's ability, becomes 4 attack with Aldon in the following turn. Controlling the board will be a lot harder for Serena, because until she plays a weapon she's worthless, and even when she does, the weapon deals 1 damage; not enough to kill even Puwen, even with 1 extra damage from 1 Nightshade.
I just had a match with Dark Phoenix's Boris and I'm still in pain from the beating. I had a 38 card deck and I didn't draw a single Nightshade. Using his ability and 2 retreats he controlled the game, and I couldn't use Assassination. Other allies I played were killed by Jasmine and Boris. I didn't have in the deck "Lay Low" because I don't like it a lot, but I see now that it could help.

Yeah, Lance has better ally-survivability for sure, but a good flow of cards is imperative when you try to recover from a bad start.
