[Ethereal Wind Priest]
Listening to the Wind, 30 Points, C
Attack 10, 100/100, 5/5
[Silent Listen to Ethereal Wind-Passive]:Ethereal Wind Priest Attack Power -20, recover energy when playing a Covered Card.
[Ethereal Wind Call - 5 Energy Points]: Ethereal Wind Priest uses 1 self card[Resurrection]
([Resurrection]: Cards reappear with 50% health, 0% energy)
It was the first time he had revealed this card in a PVP Card Game.
It’s the 6th round of the card game now, just in time for the [Ethereal Wind Priest] to recharge fully.
He can’t always play old cards against Henry Thompson.
Necessary respect needs to be given, as he is the curator of the prestigious Henry Thompson Gaming Hall.
Without some strength in his cards, Ree Shil knows he won’t be able to get through this match.
Rose Cooper: [Wow! Player Ree Shil just revealed a Resurrection card!]
Rose Cooper: [But...]
Upon seeing this card, Rose Cooper hesitates slightly in her speech.
Rose Cooper: [In my understanding, the effect of Resurrection is often quite useless]
Rose Cooper: [Because the cost of using Resurrection is just too great]
Rose Cooper: [First of all, the Ghost Wind Priest’s passive skill of recovering energy costs a large amount, sacrificing most of its Attack Power]
Rose Cooper: [This kind of excellent mechanism with cost is inevitable]
Rose Cooper: [And the conversion rate is quite low, a full 5 Listening to the Wind energy points are needed to revive a card with only 50% health]
Rose Cooper: [The key is that the resurrected cards are typically at the outer card position]
Rose Cooper: [As soon as it comes out, it becomes immediately exposed to the opponent’s firepower]
Rose Cooper: [Now it’s basically like sacrificing the 30-point output capabilities of the Ethereal Wind Priest to let the Kung Fu Sheep Rabbit return to the field with 50 points of health]
Rose Cooper: [Once the Kung Fu Sheep Rabbit comes back to life, it should be immediately taken down in this round]
Rose Cooper: [Honestly, it seems like a loss]
Her understanding is what most card players would think.
Resurrection skills are generally more useful in PVE situations.
In PVP Card Games, due to the high cost in various aspects, the cost-effectiveness is quite low.
Museum Director Phoenix: [Miss Cooper, you can’t say that]
Museum Director Phoenix: [We need to analyze the situation based on the card face]
Museum Director Phoenix: [Think about it, what if he resurrected... the Female Thief?]
The value of a single [Female Thief] card is not as great as that of a [Kung Fu Sheep Rabbit].
But don’t forget, there’s still a [Male Thief] on the field.
The male and female Thieves working together get results without even needing to warm up, making their cost-effectiveness not far off from the Kung Fu Sheep Rabbit. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
Rose Cooper: [Ah! Curator Phoenix, that’s a good point!]
Rose Cooper: [If Coach Shil revived the Female Thief, at least during the one round it’s alive, it could deal considerable damage!]
Museum Director Phoenix: [No, you need to add another "if"]
Museum Director Phoenix: [What if there was another Frog Soldier in front of the Female Thief?]
Rose Cooper: [Ah...!]
Museum Director Phoenix: [Ree Shil’s setup and layout are just amazing...]
Phoenix has to admit, even the positioning of each card in Ree Shil’s deck is well thought out.
"You young lad, with this layout."
Seeing these hints, Henry Thompson’s face becomes dark.
The pressure of choice is too heavy.
On the left column, there is the joint combination of [Female Thief]+[Male Thief], as well as the threatening card [Ethereal Wind Priest] capable of resurrection.
In the middle row, there is the [Floral Jade Deer] that provides steady healing to their cards, and the [A-39] that provides energy for the [Ethereal Wind Priest].
On the far right, there is the high-attack output [Ghost Fire Demon].
Since both sides have early card reveal abilities, even though it’s the 6th round, it is already considered the late phase of the card game.
In the later stages, where only half of one’s remaining cards are left alive, the output is slightly lacking.
As a result, Henry Thompson faces a very difficult situation, even with three Giant Cards to work with.
He must choose one of the opponent’s rows of cards and try to break through as quickly as possible.
In doing so, he can secure survival space for himself.
If he’s lucky, he might even find the opponent’s King Card early on and focus fire to eliminate it.
As for Ree Shil’s choices, there are many.
There is no row on the other side that he cannot attack.
He just needs to be careful not to be affected by the opponent’s[Exile], which could result in wasted damage.
"I know what you are hesitating about, let me help you decide."
So at this time, he spoke.
"Attack this row because the threat of[Female Thief]+[Male Thief] is greater than the [Ghost Fire Demon]."
"And once you break these two, you can hit the[Ethereal Wind Priest]."
He even explained it to Henry Thompson with a smile on his face. It can be said that he is an expert in messing with his opponents’ mentality.
"It’s not your turn to teach me!"
As expected, Henry Thompson’s face turned red with anger, and the veins on his forehead popped out.
He’s angry because Ree Shil is messing with his mentality, but also because what he said was right.
The biggest threat now is indeed the left row!
So, with that, both sides entered the Action Phase.
On Henry Thompson’s side.
[Golden Demon City] gives the 10 points of Attack Power to the [Golden Demon Mother] and casts[Exile]on the[Demon Shark Serpent].
[Demon Shark Serpent] sacrifices 10 Health Points to attack the[Frog Soldier] under[Defense], dealing 25 points of damage and taking it down.
[Golden Demon Mother] attacks [Floral Jade Deer], dealing 50 points of damage.
[Golden Behemoth Statue] attacks [Floral Jade Deer], dealing 40 points of damage.
