Chapter 1229: Chapter 481 S Level Sword Card Deck
As the "sworn enemy" of the Weapon Master, the Stealth Master also possesses a very promising S-level potential.
Stealth Master
Balance, 20 points, S
Attack 40, 100/100
[Noble-Passive]: The Stealth Master’s score -5 → -10
[Kind-Passive]: The Stealth Master’s score -5 → -10
[Modesty-Passive]: The Stealth Master’s normal attack carries the Silence effect
[Martial Virtue-Passive]: The priority of the Stealth Master’s normal attack increases to the Unveiling Stage
[Responsibility-Passive]: All damage received by the Stealth Master in his round is borne by the allied cards in the same row
The first two entries are pure numerical boosts.
A 20 points to 40 attack ratio is considered excellent.
But the added entries are the key things.
The Stealth Master’s greatest advantage is its fast attack speed.
Its biggest weakness is also the quickness of its attack.
Because it completes its attack at T0, it allows the opponent to know its movements in advance.
If the Stealth Master has not initiated [Attack] at T0, it is either [Defense] or Stillness.
Having initiated [Attack] at T0, it’s then at the mercy of others.
The entry [Responsibility] completely solves this shortcoming of the Stealth Master.
It allows him to deal damage without reservation.
It only requires the presence of allied cards in the same row.
Even second-level summoned creatures with only 10 Health Points are not a problem, as overflow damage will not flow back onto the Stealth Master.
This entry is therefore highly valuable.
In combination with those high-frequency, low-energy consumption summoning cards, the Stealth Master can even serve as an outer card to bear damage under specific circumstances.
Aside from the Stealth Master, the card face of the Blind Swordsman is also powerful.
Blind Sword Saint
Listening to the Wind, 30 points, A
Attack 30, 100/100, 0/3
[Sixth Sense-Passive]: The Blind Sword Saint gains 30 points of [Shield] every round
[Wind Insight-Passive]: Any actions of the Blind Sword Saint are considered Standstill
[Secret Technique-Passive]: When the Blind Sword Saint releases damage skills, each point of Energy consumed carries an additional layer of Quantum Entanglement effect
[Flash - 100% Current Energy]: The Blind Sword Saint launches an attack (30 points) against the target, with every point of Energy consumed adding an additional (30 points) of damage
[Mirror 3 Energy Points]: The Blind Sword Saint enters the Invincible state, reflecting all attacks received this round
([Quantum Entanglement]: Lose 1-3 Energy Points, if out of energy then lose 10-30 Health Points)
The original Sixth Sense entry had 10 points of damage reduction when in Stillness, but the S level changed it to a 30-point [Shield] each round.
In broad terms, the S level is definitely better.
The 10-point damage reduction requires being focused fired upon by more than 3 cards to exceed 30 points of damage reduction.
Generally speaking, if you are being focused fired on by 3 or more cards, it’s probably when you’re at your weakest.
A 30 points [Shield] every round is clearly superior.
It is more efficient at reducing damage when faced with fewer than 3 attacking cards from the opponent.
Then, [Wind Insight] was also greatly enhanced.
The A-level version was that repeating the same move from the previous round counted as Standstill.
The S-level is considered to be in Standstill all the time.
That is to say, the Blind Sword Saint no longer needs to actually stand still; its energy recovery mechanism is equivalent to the Wind Chaser Card.
It’s like having the energy of Chasing the Wind with the skill quality of Listening to the Wind.
The new active skill is an absolutely top skill.
Not only does it grant the Self-Invincibility, but it also reflects attacks.
Unfortunately, it can only reflect attacks; effects like [Poisoned] and [Ignition] are merely reduced due to [Invincibility], and not reflected.
This skill requires careful table prediction.
If used well, it is a divine skill.
Having seen the S-level version of the Blind Swordsman, one must mention the Blade Mantis Mother.
These two cards, one sword and one knife, held up the early strength of Card Player Ree Shil’s career and remain up to standards to this day.
The S level of Blade Mantis Mother has quite a significant change.
Unlike Sheep Rabbit Queen, the S-level version almost completely abandons the human form, more resembling a humanoid mutant insect. free𝑤ebnovel.com
Knife Edge Queen
Berserk, 30 points, S
Attack 50, 100/100
[Sharp Edge-Passive]: Knife Edge Queen attack power +20
[Healing Blade-Passive]: After attacking, the Knife Edge Queen gains 30 points of [Treatment]
[Attack Blade-Passive]: When the Knife Edge Queen attacks a target with higher Health Points than herself, she deals an additional 20 points of damage
[Continuous Blade - 10 Health Points]: The Knife Edge Queen’s attack power is fixed at 20 points, and she attacks twice
[Chopping Blade - 50% Max Health Points]: The Knife Edge Queen attacks one target with the [Behead] effect
([Behead]: Causes cards with Health Points equal to or less than 30% to directly [Exit])
This card’s strength is definitely high enough, with a potential attack power of up to 70 points accompanying a 30 point card.
Then it has ample self-sustenance capacity, its attack inherently comes with 30 points of [Healing], which for a Berserker Card is nothing short of divine.
It also has an active skill specifically for regaining health; [Continuous Blade] can restore 60-10 = 50 Health Points in one round.
The final [Chopping Blade] is somewhat similar to the Kung Fu Sheep God’s [Four God Pursuit].
However, the requirement for the Knife Edge Queen’s move is stricter, requiring the opponent’s Health Points to be less than 30%.
The advantage is that it’s triggered more easily, with higher frequency and at will.
There is no need to wait for the fourth round; it can be used whenever desired.
In PVE, it’s an absolute master of boss beheading.
Besides, the S level card face of Flying Sword Immortal is also not bad.
But its card face underwent a lot of change, and the synthesis steps in between were divided into several steps, each with relatively strict conditions.
