[More... flesh and blood!]
The zombie-like Sword Elder, holding a red energy sword, stood on the card face and roared.
Its appearance had been slightly modified, and it was now no longer emaciated.
One could even say it had a relatively full body, but its eyes were red, and its skin was the unique gray of a Zombie Beast.
[Sword Loss]
Berserk, 40 points, A
Attack 40, 130/130
[Obsession-Passive]: Sword Loss maximum life value +30
[Flesh Craving-Passive]: After Sword Loss attacks, gain 10 points[Healing]
[Blood Thirst-Passive]: When Sword Loss’s life value is less than or equal to 50 points, the effect of Flesh Craving doubles
[Life-Devouring Sword-Passive]: Sword Loss’s attack ignores [Defense], but loses 30 life points every round
"Wow, this is a very typical Berserker Card." freёweɓnovel.com
"It has all the characteristics of a Berserker Card."
"High health, self-recovery, high attack power, and ignoring defense."
"Then the tactic is to slow down the blood loss by constantly attacking, and when the bloodline drops to a certain level, you can enter a relatively slow blood loss state."
However, Ree Shil knew that despite having 130 points of high health, this card isn’t suitable to be the first card revealed.
That’s because it can only work effectively when constantly attacking, and [Defense] is very unfavorable for it.
Moreover, the mechanism of recovering health through attacks, which isn’t rare, often has a flaw.
That is the difference in priority between [Attack] and [Treatment].
Once the life value reaches 0, even a strong bloodsucking ability is useless.
Therefore, its 130 life points are not for taking damage, but rather for burning itself.
It’s somewhat similar to [Origins of Malice], although [Origins of Malice] cannot accept recovery effects from the outside, its survival ability is much stronger, capable of both killing enemies and recovering large amounts of blood and summoning little monsters to block knives.
If you put [Sword Loss] in the next line card position, it’s easier to make a brilliant play.
Or, if it’s revealed in the middle of the card game, taking advantage of the characteristic of 40 Attack + ignoring [Defense], it would help open up the situation very easily.
"All in all, it doesn’t seem like there’s much room for me to modify cards."
"But the card attributes are all good, so it can be considered a pretty good A level card."
"Now, there are far fewer alternatives than the number of cards that can be drawn, so it’s not too excessive to consider this card as a must-draw."
That being said, Ree Shil didn’t take it right away.
If you count these few alternatives, his Sword Card deck would be relatively complete now.
Balance: [Female Thief][Male Thief][Demon-eliminating Puppet]
Berserk: [Sword Loss][Golden Bell Messenger]
Wisdom: [Sect Leader Frog]
Breaking Force: [Garbage Man][Nameless Sword Spirit][Breaking Balance Sword]
Determination: Hmm, it seems like there isn’t a single one
Chasing Wind: [Sword Dance Girl][Doram’s Captain]
Listening to Wind: [Blind Swordsman][Demon-eliminating Human]
"That’s 13 cards already."
"Even if you remove the more targeted ones like [Demon-eliminating Puppet][Demon-eliminating Human][Garbage Man], there are still 10."
"In theory, a full set of cards would have 11 Sword Cards... hiss."
"[Nameless Sword Spirit] can provide at least 55 points of attack power as a guarantee, that’s horrifying man."
However, Ree Shil also knew that this is just a theoretical state, and it can be easily achieved in PVE card decks.
In the real PVP card table, giving it a 30-point attack power increase would already be quite impressive.
"Compared to the Kung Fu Card Set, my Sword Card Deck’s strength is definitely not high." freёweɓnovel.com
"But in terms of mechanism, it’s much richer than the Kung Fu Card Set."
"Kung Fu Card Set has more various hard control and soft control, while the Sword Card Set has more counter-type target cards."
"Each has its own strengths, and mixing them together is a good choice when necessary."
"What I’m lacking now is mostly Determination Type Sword Cards."
"If I want to be more versatile in tactics, it’s best to have all seven major categories without bias."
"The quantity of Listening to Wind Sword Cards and Wisdom Sword Cards is also not much."
"But in the following days, I can go to [Path of Wind-hearing] or [Path of Insight], which shouldn’t be hard to supplement."
"All in all, I think my Sword Cards are now presentable."
"4 As + 5 Bs is a considerable value."
"It should be enough to deal with the first half of the competition, especially since the confidentiality mechanism of this tournament is said to be well done."
"With the existence of the Puppeteer Control Cabin, people don’t know who I am before the card game starts, so it’s hard to target me based on my historical card decks."
"Relative to Kung Fu Cards, Sword Cards must be more popular."
"If detected in advance, it might reveal some targeted cards unexpectedly."
"Of course, the good thing is that Sword Cards are easier to collect."
"Just this high-quality Instance has already given me the two cards [Garbage Man] and [Sword Loss]... Huh?!"
As Ree Shil spoke, he had already previewed the last card.
[Find the old man’s sword...]
In the card projection, a skeleton-like figure in tattered clothes floated suspended in midair.
Without a doubt, this was the other card that Ree Shil had been expecting, the one of Sword Elder.
However, its name was changed here.
[Arthur Blade-seeker]
Wisdom, 0 points, A
Attack 0, 50/50, 4/4
[Wall Watching-Passive]: Arthur Blade-seeker life value upper limit -50, can be placed in any card position
[Death Approaching-Passive]: Arthur Blade-seeker loses 1 Energy point every round, and retires when energy is exhausted
