Title: How to beat Jmmcarthy?
Post by: Gil-Estel on February 23, 2010, 10:50:08 AM
Seriously! He keeps annoying me, not with his personality, I think he is great, but his decks! It seems as if he has a programm installed in GCCG, that when I pick a deck, he can see which one I pick... haha.  ](*,)

No, he is great, his decks are too, but I keep losing vs him, while in the meantime I keep kicking a lot of behindparts lately  :twisted:

I cannot be sure, but I would suggest that my record against jm is close to .500.

He probably has the slight edge on me.

Nevermind, just play Enduring Evil on Merry with 4 burdens, and deal the threats so everyone dies...that will do the trick, :twisted:

I suggest playing a Smeagol only deck.  That worked out really well for Gwaihir... he lost at site 2 to a solo twilight Nelya.

Not to be a #$&*@!, but I really hope it was because you used Morgul Gates that you were able to play him.

Choke decks...ugh.

I don't even remember that.  Must have been a long time ago or he's getting me mixed up with someone else.  Not that I haven't lost plenty of games to him.  I'm riding a long 0-fer streak against him right now.

Gil-Estel, next time you are getting destroyed by jmmcarthy, what about you trying to call his internet provider and ask them to cut the connection? Oh... nvm, a disconnection doesn't give a win on GCCG. :P

He played one card that gave me one twilight, and then moved with one companion to West Road, giving me 4 more twilight.  That was all I needed, since Nelya stops roaming at site 2.  Gwaihir was also kind enough to start the game with 2 burdens... :-)

I have thought of it, but the problem is that since midterms are next week, I shouldn't even be reading your response at the moment so....
