With the first game finishing quickly we “rerack” for another.

Only half of my models had moved on my assassination run, so we reverted back to my top of 1 and Duncan redeployed.

Duncan casts Lamentation and Shadowmancer and runs up, being a bit more restrained than last time.

I back off to the point where I am threatening the full zones, and shoot off both Machine Wraiths.

Duncan moves up and gets into the zones, projecting threat where he can. 1-1

I Hunters Mark the Inflictor, allowing me to destroy it, the Slayer, the Ripjaw and around half of the Seether. It feels like a strong attrition turn. 2-2.

Goreshade Feats and between the Bane Warriors and his remaining Jacks he cripples or takes out a lot of my jacks. 3-2 to Duncan

Despite a strong turn of attrition Goreshade is still within range for an assassination. I build Synergy before a Griffon takes out Deathwalker allowing Vyros to destroy Goreshade

VICTORY

-      Probably a rough match for the Cryx, especially going second. Goreshade has to be up the table to leverage his abilities and puts him in danger of assassination
