Thorn Gulley - Alvendor(V) vs Blckace(F)
I'm too passive in the beginning and Blckace can start threatening me with both a sniper and a scrambler. Think it would be better for me if I got some soldiers out very early to lock down the map a bit?

I get a bit lucky and manage to turn it around on turn 13. But also interesting to note the scrambled thorns on this turn. Good example of the problem feedback often have when converting thorns. Even if I hadn't killed the scrambler the opponent's thorns help me more than him in that i blocks his snipers and I can at any time I want kill all the spawned thorns.

Glitch - Sir3(F) vs Alvendor(V)
My first turtling game in a very long time, 100+ turns. It goes back and forth for a while without anyone coming out ahead. Glitch is a bit awkward for veggies, it is hard to use the thorns for defense without blocking yourself. After I while I'm just thinking "screw it, I'm going double brambler!"

I do at least one big mistake in this game, can you find it? (Tip: it is before the second brambler enters).

Is that mistake Turn 49? The last thorn you made which was unnecessary, blocked your snipers path on the next turn to kill the Scrambler, forcing you to uproot.
