I was wondering how to not let goblin soldier affect my score negatively. I know the opponent would end the game with the score of 65 so I was just planning how to end round with less than 65 points so that I can win with 4 points from goblin soldier.

Any suggestions, people?

Update:
I found the answer.
I had 44 points(before playing Round 8) and the opponent had 56 points(after playing round 8)
I needed to score 18 points in Round 8 to win since opponent would score 9 points in active effects ending his score at 65.

My strategy:
Play Surtr - 8 points
Tame and play imp
Play Lava Giant - 10 points
End turn
I would end up at score - 44+8+10 = 62
Additional score from Active effects: 4 (goblin soldier) + 2 (Nessie)
Total score = 68

Opponent total score = 65

And you didn't play in time, so you lost.

For anyone doubting my ability to win - 76 (71+5) in "7 rounds" here in this latest game.

But there are such sore losers out there.

Not only is calling out a player in forums against moderation rules, but if you don't care about elo you wouldn't mind so much since as you say, you "won" the game. Seems like a win-win to me, you got the win and the other player got the elo. The only sore loser I see is someone who didn't pay enough attention to the timer and then made a salty forum post after they were rightfully expelled.
