*pant pant* I... *gasp* Give Up.

Deck: Magnificent Justice

My crusade continued (see previous post). No one could stand against me. A rogue sneaking in the shadows assaulted my army, and a ferociousIt was clear this rogue was prepared to dish out as many attacks as possible. She assaulted my troops with combos left and right, then Shadowstepped her minions back into her hand for another round. My own spells and summons were dwindling as I fought to keep up with her, but my Silver Hand Recruits were always a source of help on the front lines. Though many of them died from her Wicked Knife, one I was able to bless with a Blessing of Kings that threw a wrench into her plan.
Eventually, she got me down to a mere 12 health. I was wounded severely, but I was not even close to being ready to give up. A Gadgetzan Auctioneer and none other than VanCleef himself was on the battlefield, at an 8/8 strength level. I had to act fast. For the third time that battle I summoned Tirion Fordring (he had been sapped twice). His shield up and his divine shield glowing, he was prepared to defend me from the combined damage that would destroy me. Luckily, since I had more mana this time I summoned, I protected him with two Secrets: Redemption, that would bring him back to life, and a Defender, who would attempt to kill anyone who came close to him, giving his divine shield another hit. The rogue, however, had other plans. She hurled two fans of knives on the battlefield, popping Tirion's Divine Shield. At this point, however, because of the Auctioneer, she became greatly fatigued by this. One of the rogue's minions attempted to attack Tirion, but my Defender yelled "Get down!" and took the blow in his place. Unfortunately, my Redemption secret backfired, and revived the Defender instead. "That was a mistake," I muttered. But I pressed on.
VanCleef killed Tirion, killing himself in the process, and I took up his Ashbringer as a weapon of my own. I hit the rogue, realizing that I should spare the Auctioneer to fatigue her even more.
This proved to work out nicely. With every ability the rogue used, the Auctioneer sold her ability, making her even more fatigued. She sent the auctioneer into battle to be killed, but it was too late. With so many abilities that fatigued her even more, such as Shiv and Fan of Knives, she succumbed to her fatigue and gasped, "I give up." Before my soldiers captured her to be executed.
