  2. In game 1 of round two, why not pun­ish­ing fire the sell-sword instead of the ondu clerics?

  3. @jim: Are you talk­ing about round 1 or 2?

    @john: That would have absolutely been the cor­rect play. I missed it and I’m not really sure why. As I stated in the youtube com­ments, “See if you can count the play errors! :P”. That game was defi­nately a “punt” on my part. :(

    Thanks for the com­ments and keep them coming.

  4. There were some major play mis­takes and tons of minor ones. Killing the Ondu Cleric instead of Nimana was the worst one.

  5. so many mis­takes game one i had to stop watch­ing. i don’t under­stand why you keep not attack­ing then not block­ing with any of the guys you held back.
