23:04 seems like grandeur of valahai might've hurt oren here? forced to keep a 4 card hand to attack with blue debilitate = 4 dmg, 1 block, 1 card from arsenal = 10 value. whereas if grandeur was any other blue, he could block 6 on the CnC, then plating + swing back with hammer for 6 (12 value).

34:15 - choice is between a) buckling blow -> block with 1 card, take 2 dmg, then atk and take 2 cards + new horizons from lexi next turn, or b) CnC -> block 2 cards take 0 , then on their next turn you can block 3 or 4, and have the option to go plating + CnC on your turn requiring 2 cards. In the immediate term, it's basically a choice between - do you want to be at 2 lower life, or lexi to have lost new horizon? It seems like both players being at higher life favors bravo, since he can grind the game out with anothos block 3 then attack back for 4 with only 1 card, requiring 2 cards from lexi to survive. Also lexi has to pay resources to load her arrows, and if she ever fails to draw a blue, she won't be able to apply enough pressure -> bravo can swing for 6 with hammer, and the tempo swings. But letting the game go longer also gives lexi a chance to draw codex or 3 of a kind, which she can probably leverage to close out the game.

I feel like the bravo playing the pummel there was wrong, he won if he held it as Michael would of had to block even bigger again next turn

Past 30 minutes, players start taking literally 2-3 minutes per block. Yeah I don't think FaB is the game for me
