More and more, I'm seeing Keruru is a trap card. Here's my theory: If you have Keruru and you're up against a forest engine, then they most likely collect more nectar than you if their engine is stronger. If they are building in another row, then it can be very easy for your opponent to play around it. There is a very small sweet spot for Keruru where your opponent has a strong forest engine and you have 2-3 forest birds meaning you have decent food access without it, and can take the extra nectar when your opponent takes food. Its super niche in my humble opinion. Thoughts?
Interesting… honestly I haven’t played Keruru too much to get a good feel. I think you are onto something here… probably not a go to forest bird, but I won’t mind starting with it(?)
@@tuckNcache even starting with Keruru feels mid. It's fine, but I'd rather have a "cache a wheat" bird. Those are kind of my bar for starting forest birds
To answer the thumbnail, I think Spangled Drongo and Pileated Woodpecker still top the Wood Duck as single cards I'd rather have in the a starting hand, but getting a wood duck pileated combo is the dream. You got almost the same effect here with the chipping sparrow. Great game.
I agree pileated over wood Duck just because eggs are so hard to come by, plus it goes very well with wood Duck itself. I’d say Pileated > Wood Duck > Chipping > Drongo. Drongo is excellent, and always a bird I want to get down early, but I think it’s still behind most egg-laying Forest birds for me
Just curious, do you plan to do new tier lists for the NA and EU birds on Oceania boards? I feel like they’d actually shift around a decent amount, there are some birds I rarely if ever use in NA/EU that I actually get tons of use from in OE (vultures, basegame dice predators, etc.) and others that while they were good or excellent already got even better (partridge, green heron, tuck-and-lays)
You could have played the swansons hawk in grassland. Spent two nectar. Then discarded nectar for egg, swap out something in hand for chipping sparrow and waste no nectar
