3:45 The better play for red would have been to flip Moerk and link Geri + Moerk into Blackbeard then tag into Brann, I think. It isn't ideal, but red needs their +3 more than anything else at that point. By tagging into Brann, they free the EMZ and have high chance to draw into either a Plunder or a Runick. If it's a Plunder, they can force the known Blackout, losing the ship in the process (come to think of it, drawing Cosmic would have the same result). If it's a Runick spell (except Destruction/Flashing Fire), they can activate Fountain and force the Blackout with Runick Destruction-- when the opponent flips it, you chain the spare Runick spell in response to summon Hugin. That should keep your fountain safe long enough for it to stick. All of this is hindsight, though. If I were the one playing instead of watching, I sure as hell wouldn't know what to do. I probably would have tried summoning Hugin to search Fountain, only to be painfully reminded that she can't protect other cards from destruction if the same effect would destroy her, too.

totally understandable. hindsight is always 20/20 with future knowledge.
