Conflux - Rampart — a normal match-up, I think

Come on, Rampart - elves, Centaur; Conflux birds. I played Daimond for Conflux against Swamp, which is weaker than Rampart on Daimond, so it was oh so hard to take the Dragon Fly Hive in week 1 without birds, and there were 8 Dragon Fly Hives, in the end without birds I couldn't handle the max 3rd Hive, even though the horses in the hive strike with blindness.
Try taking the Hive for Conflux and for Rampart, Swamp, then everything becomes clear right away.
