Clash of the Commanders

Traveling down a deserted path, Jarad was minding his own thoughts heading to his next graveyard in search of more undead to arise. Cloaked in black robes, he kept to the shadowed path not saying a word and only looking up enough to see where he is walking. A rubble through the woods causes Jard to stop in his tracks and arm himself. As he looked through the woods for any signs of the disturbance, he was attacked by a shaman. Not an ordinary shaman mind you, she was known as Wort a leader to a hoard of goblins. She managed to utter " I challenge you to a battle necromancer!" Jarad without hesitation nodded his head agreeing to do battle with this new shaman foe.
Forgotten Cave Deathrite Shaman Reliquary Tower
Wort started off the duel by channeling the Forgotten Cave and passing the turn over to her foe. Jarad gladly got his turn under way channeling a swamp to summon forth a Deathrite Shaman to stand up and ready. Worts move again, using her Cave, she would call forth Goblin Fireslinger to stand in her defense. Reliquary Tower is Jarad's only move for his turn. A Tarfire is used by Wort to destroy Jarad's Shaman and clearing the battle field. Letting his Golgari roots come through, Jarad lets loose his Golgari Rot Farm before ending his turn again and taking 1 damage to his life total. Finally channeling a swamp to her side, the artifact known as Armillary Sphere makes an appearance to help her out. A forest lets Jarad use his Buried Alive spell to put 3 creatures of his choice into the graveyard ending his turn. Using the Sphere to get 2 more mana ready to go Wort just casts her Elixir of Immortality to the field and pass the turn back. Able to bring back the Golgari Grave-Troll from the grave, Jarad keeps his calm passing the turn back yet again. Casting out Dragon Fodder to get 2 level goblins and even sending out Squeaking Pie Sneak sets up the formation for her army.. Jarad takes his turn by sending Plagued Rusalka to the grave and letting his second in command take to the field Varolz, the Scar-Striped. The mana was building and Wort set out to bring forth Boggart Harbinger to help her in the quest to put key spells into place. Jarad would make only a draw though and pass the turn back after taking another point of damage from the Fireslinger.
Elixir of Immortality                                                        Golgari Grave-Troll
The mighty enchantment of Boggart Shenanigans makes its presence known bringing with it the artifact known as Skullclamp. Shambling Shell is brought back from the grave to defend its master only to be sent right back to the grave giving Varolz a power boost. Varolz is sent charging into battle with the Golgari Grave-Troll. Both are simply blocked by Wort's lower level goblins. Their death lets Wort deal 2 damage to Jarad and another 1 from the Fireslinger. Making her move, she takes charge entering the battlefield to lead her followers to battle next turn. With a dark rage, Jarad quickly made his presence known jumping forward to do battle. Wort takes a page from the necromancer's play book bringing a goblin back from the grave to use once again. Jarad channeled everything with in him to banish his pet troll and bring his Shambling Shell back from the grave to do battle yet again. With the troll's death, Wort would lose 3 life of her own....
Boggart Shenanigans Shambling Shell
Skirk Fire Marshal is summoned to stand by his leader and ordered to trigger his ability. With five other goblins tapped, the Fire Marshal  deals 10 points of damage to every creature and even both commanders. Shenanigans will make it an additional 4 points of damage with a total of 4 goblins being sent to the grave right to the face of Jarad. This won't startle the necromancer, letting his troll come back yet again and even casting out the spell Death lets his Avatar of Woe come back as well. Jarad still standing, charges into battle dealing a staggering 14 points of damage to Wort's life. Blood Tithe allows Wort steal 3 life from the necromancer and keep her steady knowing she still has her Elixir left to use. This turn for Wort is her last against Jarad. Using his mighty powers, Jarad sent his pet troll to the grave dealing 12 points of damage right to her head. His Avatar of Woe is ordered to use her ability taking down the Fire Marshal clearing the path for him. Jarad charges into battle one last time to deal lethal points of damage to her and before the finale blow is to be done, her hoard takes her away through the woods.

Skirk Fire Marshal Avatar of Woe
Necromatic Victory

With this victory in hand, Jarad simply continues down his path. The graveyard is just in sight waiting to be pillaged of its corpses. Jarad can feel his mana coarsing through his veins anxious to increase his growing powers. Entering the gates, he full fills his mission and begins the hunt for more followers..Can you defeat Jarad in the heat of battle??? Test your luck against him and see for your self..
