So I was playing The Old Took the other day, and, being the generous man that he is, he chose to play corsairs against me.
Knowing the destructive capability of those bloody pirates, I did a little choking, and was proud to move to site 3 with a total of 9 in the pool (well, not really choke, but still low).
Then he plays a
Castamir of Umbar for 9, with a
Raider Halberd. One archery and two exertions later, I'm staring at a 22 strength fierce minion.
Is this legal? I mean, I hate corsairs, I don't think they ever should have been made, because some of they combos they pull seem completely broken. At site five he gained initiative with the galley, discarded some condition or another to reconcile his hand, and I ended up facing a seven minion swarm which discarded the top two cards of my draw deck, a possession, and pretty much everything else. Admittedly good drawing on his part, but their was really nothing I could jolly well do against it.
Aside from playing Corsair hate, what can I do?
