Ice, was it you that had: * Tech inf with mov * Long range buffed art * Recon with vision * AA hero
ALL in the same Sealed deck?
That game was unbelievable. I had 1 lt enlist and that was it.

lol now I won because of amazing cards. Never knew marksman recon (95g) and firepower were so unstoppable in sealed. You even got to take more resources early and had one of the best players in the game on your team. Pretty sure you guys had a badass buffed camo infantry also. I like how everyone said gg at the end except for you, who said it was terrible and not a good game

Actually, taking the res early involved setting up an inf with death march, because I had no movement for inf either.
It was not just firepower, ice9, the art had both firepower AND range. And the recon, though not perfect, had vision. And then there's the AA hero, And the tech inf with adrenaline.
That's a good constructed deck right there.
I said it was not a gg, because for me any sealed games that get incredibly uneven cards - and that was one - are not gg. My cards were just one step over having no cards at all.

I was checking the game and it was even more incredible than I thought - not only your team had those cards, it also had rally the troops ... so movement for 3 infs, while we had movement for 0.
So ... you had vision, we did not. You had range, we did not. You had firepower, we did not. You had movement for the infs, we did not. You had tech inf, we did not.
I would say that's about as uneven as it gets.

LOL I just checked out the cards you and your partner had. Remember it was a team game.
Airborne Ranger Airlift 3 3 Merc Heavies w/ We need reinforcements 2 Enlist Light Tanks Enlist 2 AA's Immobilize Ground x 3 Blind Any Blind Ground Binoculars Camo Troop Transport
Seriously, those cards are freakin' great and it was on Frostbite Teams. You could basically immobilize most of our army, send in a crazy amount of speed buffed merc heavies, lights and AA's, blind our units, send troop transport to one side of the map and drop Airborne Ranger on one side of the map.
Unbelievable you are making a big deal about us using two cards to make a speed buffed Tech Infantry when you guys have a freakin' Airborne Ranger. And then you make a big deal about a single buffed artillery when you have Airlift 3, 3 Merc Heavies, and 2 discount light tanks. And your team has binoculars (5g), but you whine that I built a Marksman Recon for 95g. Combine this with the fact that you are the #2 and #4 ranked sealed players in the game, and Mario has been playing since November -- and you can't even say we played a good game? Give me a break.

Airborne ranger without any air becomes incredibly expensive to deploy, actually. 150+145 = 295, simply not viable.

Plus, it was not "two cards made a speed tech inf". Two cards made 3 fast infs, one of them tech.
You know how speedy infs are important. Our single inf with speed was death marching ...
Anyway, I'm just nervous that I'm getting a LOT of bad luck, and not just in the game. Things that never happened or happen once every 100 years are hitting me daily or weekly, and that gets to you.

Shut up already. If I had 3 merc heavies and airlift 3 enlist 2 light tanks and we need reinforcements in a team game I would be so happy. You could have destroyed them so easily with that. And airborne ranger  . If your cards switched, you would have complained exactly that your opponents had these cards.
