Is bleeding really that bad?
Post Flair (click to view more posts with a particular flair)

Let’s say I have in-hand: - Card 1: absolutely critical to my defense against the opponent, can’t hold a tower without it - Card 2: situational counter spell, if the opponent sees me just throw this card out they can take advantage - Cards 3 and 4: too expensive to just play to cycle

I’ve been burned quite a few times by being panicked at the thought of bleeding and throwing out one of these cards, just to instantly lose because I either don’t have my critical counters or am at a huge elixir disadvantage (from playing 3 or 4). Is it a reasonable thought that I should just bleed here and wait to see what my opponent throws out?

If you’re playing a high cost deck and there’s no immediate threat I’d go as far to say you SHOULD be leaking elixir to get to double elixir quicker . You cant be down elixir if you’re at 10 , you’re only losing elixir advantage which is fine.

As a lumberloon player I also feel qualified to put in an answer . Leaking is absolutely ok if you don’t have anything worth cycling in your hand , there’s no immediate threat , and very importantly if you’re playing a high elixir cost deck that wants to get to double elixir .The big thing to remember is that if they don’t have anything down on field , and you’re at 10 elixir , there’s no way to be down on elixir so don’t get hasty.
