Double-Deckmaster Battle

Tom and Sharp-Elbows fight

Tom and Sharp-Elbows combine flock control, magic suppression, temple guards, and necromancy until Carl and Raul kill both deckmasters.

Story so far

Tom occupies the rafters while Sharp-Elbows advances from the side, placing Carl, Donut, and unconscious Mongo at the center of a triangle. Tom summons a turkey guard; Sharp-Elbows and Donut each summon opposing Unk Tehi brothers after Donut steals one.

Idolized turns thousands of living turkeys hostile. Ralphie dispels Carl's Fear and prevents minions and totems from casting. Sharp-Elbows snares Shi Maria and summons the Worm Fulcrum, raising every dead turkey as a zombie.

Carl activates the full Scavenger's Daughter charge and destroys Tom with the Daughter's Kiss. Tom's field effects end and living turkeys return to neutral, but zombies remain hostile. The impact tips the barn over the cliff.

During the slide, Lazarus's heat-affected RPG detonates early, Mongo nearly falls, and Sharp-Elbows rolls into Carl. Raul breaks the Worm Fulcrum and decapitates the witch after her plea. Carl inventories both corpses, and Donut Puddle Jumps the squad away as the barn falls.

Appearance

A vast turkey barn split between two deckmasters, temple guards, zombie birds, and a world-breaking kick.

The paired fight exhausts the team's card and environmental defenses while exposing the conscious cost of dungeon mobs.
