Tie Game

Had an interesting/funny scenario happen earlier today. We played a "quick" game of Sentinels while waiting for a couple other people to get ready for a different game. It was Scholar, Nightmist, and Chrono-Ranger vs Akash'Buta in Silver Gulch 1883. Things went downhill pretty quickly for a variety of reasons, with two simultaneously exploding Explosive Wagons killing Nightmist, then some Phalanges killing Chrono-Ranger shortly thereafter. Scholar was left with just a few hit points but an absolutely massive hand. He got his reduce all damage to 0 card in play, then Akash'Buta absolutely exploded, pulling two copies of her "reveal cards until H limbs are put into play" card. She ended up with literally all of her limbs out after a couple turns.

 

The Brambles meant that Scholar was never allowed to deal damage (since he was the only hero target in play), but he was always able to keep out a Flesh to Iron or his reduce to 0 card. The environment managed to plink away at the limbs, but every time one would be almost destroyed, AB would heal all the limbs to full health. AB could never actually heal because Nightmist could destroy the healing card before the environment turn, but Chrono-Ranger couldn't hurt AB (because of the Carapaces) and couldn't kill any of the limbs before she'd heal them again.

 

After about 10 straight rounds where AB made no headway on killing Scholar and the environment made no headway on killing any of AB's limbs, we called the game a draw. We decided that Scholar pulled a The Dude and just chilled out in a bubble of air wrapped up in AB's many limbs for the rest of eternity.

 

Anyone else ever had a game where neither side was really able to win?
