"This..."
Upon the appearance of this scene card, Ree Shil finally understood.
He understood why his opponent would use three high-scoring, less-talented elf cards.
[Elf Forest]
Scene, A-Level, 0/5
[Sanctuary of the Elves]: When all your cards are elf cards, the Elf Forest can take effect.
[Ancestor’s Blessing]: Each round boosts the temporary attack power of an elf card by +10.
[Racial cohesion]: If the basic attack power of all your cards is 10 points, they will be immediately revealed.
[Spiritual Growth]: Every 5 rounds, the attack power of your elf cards permanently increases by 5 points.
So, the reason these elf cards’ attack power is so low is so they can all be revealed!
If the basic attack power of 10 cards is all 10, then when they are all revealed, it equals 100 points of attack power.
This basically won’t lose to any first three revealed cards.
The advantage is that revealing all cards in the first round can bolster the effects of each card and energy charging.
And every 5 rounds, they collectively increase attack power by 5 points, offsetting the deck’s shortcomings in the attack power department.
Afterward, Ree Shil could only watch as his opponent’s elf cards were revealed one by one.
[Iron Elf]: Berserk, A-Level, includes an attack boost.
[Light Elf]: Balanced, A-Level, includes group healing and DPS.
[Wind Elf]: Chasing the wind, A-Level, includes assistance and adjustment.
[Fire Elf]: Breaking force, A-Level, includes adjustment, attack boost, and AOE.
[Grass Elf]: Listening to the Wind, A-Level, includes summoning.
[Ice Elf]: Wisdom, A-Level, includes control.
[Ancient Elf King]: Listening to the Wind, A-level, includes summoning.
After revealing all the cards, the initial card face for both players is as follows:
[Elf Forest] (0/5)
points, 0 Cards Remaining, 0 Points Left
[Elf King] [Empty Slot] [Empty Slot]
[Ice Spirit] [Grass Spirit] [Fire Spirit]
[Iron Spirit] [Light Spirit] [Wind Spirit]
[Stone Spirit] [Water Sprite] [Sands Spirit]
VS
[Female Thief] [Zombie Demon] [Knight]
[Male Thief] [Covered Card] [Covered Card]
Points, 6 Cards Remaining, 200 Points Left
[Sword Soul Palace] (0/15)
Hunchback Woman: [Wow, an A-level Deck that automatically reveals all cards!]
[The Elf King Player has busted out their big gun just for the top 16!]
Museum Director Phoenix: [Don’t underestimate this deck just because its attack power seems low]
[Choosing between 100 points of attack power at the start of the game versus 300 points of attack power unveiling in sequence is a complex math problem.]
[It requires judgment based on actual situations]
[This doesn’t mean that this all-elf deck is necessarily worse than regular decks]
A cursory glance told Ree Shil that these cards each come with their unique traits.
If he allows them to fully play out their effects, his opponent will be quite the headache.
He knew that starting next turn, he would have to begin revising his deck immediately.
"Now, I’m going to let you experience what it feels like to be surrounded by elves."
"Come on then, let me see."
Amid their verbal clash, the action phase of the first round of the card battle officially arrived.
The first to act on the card table was the [Frost Elf].
[Frost Elf]
Wisdom, 30 points, A-Level
Attack 10, 100/100, 4/4
[Hard to Come By-Passive]: Frost Elf Score +20
[Ice Armor-Passive]: When Frost Elf is [Frozen], the damage it takes is reduced by 10
[Quick Freeze Recover - 0 Energy Points]: The Frost Elf freezes itself for 1 round and recovers 1 point of energy during this time
[Ice Soul Shock - 4 Energy Points]: The Frost Elf makes an outer line of cards [Freeze] for 1 round
This wisdom card has strong control abilities, as well as a skill for self-energy recovery.
[Frozen] brings damage reduction, which is a kind of half-damage reduction mechanism.
Because if it’s broken by an attack with special effects in a high priority, it will lose this damage reduction in the low-priority standard attack of this round.
But as a starting move, freezing one line of cards is quite powerful.
For the Elf King’s side.
[Elf Forest] gives [Fire Elf] a boost of 10 attack points this round.
[Ice Elf] releases a skill, making [Female Thief] and [Zombie Monster Knight] fall into [Freeze].
[Iron Elf] sacrifices 50 health points to activate a skill, adding +10 to its own attack power. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
The remaining cards join in focusing fire, dealing 100 damage, [Zombie Monster Knight] 150→50.
With 8 cards, plus [Fire Elf], which itself comes with a 10 point attack boost, as well as the boost from the scene card.
A total of 100 points of damage was dealt.
[Light Elf] at the end of the round automatically provides [Iron Elf] with 10 points [Healing] 50→60.
For Rei Shil’s side.The Male Thief and Female Thief counterattack using special effects, causing 25+25 points of damage. The Stone Spirit drops from 150 to 100 health points.
After the end of the first round, both sides’ cards are as follows:
Elf Forest (1/5)
points, left with 0 cards 0 points
Elf King, Empty Slot, Empty Slot
Ice Spirit, Grass Spirit, Fire Elemental
Iron Spirit 60, Light Elf, Wind Elf
Stone Spirit 100, Water Sprite, Sand Spirit
VS
Female Thief, Zombie Demon, Knight 50
Male Thief, Covered Card, Covered Card
points, left with 6 cards 200 points
Sword Spirit Palace (3/15)
Director Phoenix: "The Elf King Contestant is making the correct move."
"Because once the Zombie Monster Knight defends, its 10 point damage reduction becomes a huge headache for the Elf Deck."
"So what he needs to do is to take advantage of the freezing opportunity and inflict major damage."
"In this way, the Zombie Monster Knight can be easily taken out in the next turn."
Hunchback Woman: "Looking at Player Henry Thompson’s card deck, there are very few cards that carry the damage reduction effect."
"I wonder how he’s going to cope this time."
As the two commentators analyzed, Ree Shil revealed his second next-line card.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa~"
On the card face, a large deer with patterns like red flowers strolls out leisurely.
This is one of Ree Shil’s stronger scattered cards, but it hasn’t been revealed in an official match for a long time.
[Floral Jade Deer]
Wisdom, 30 points, B
Attack 30, 100/100, 4/4
[Flower Energy - 2 Energy Point]: Floral Jade Deer selects a target and receives 30 points of [First Aid]
[Flower Stone - Passive]: Floral Jade Deer falls into [Petrification] when energy is depleted
[Stone Flowers - Passive]: Floral Jade Deer releases 30 points of [Healing] to a selected target in the current round when entrenched in [Petrification]
([Petrification]: The target loses the ability to act, damage received when attacked in this round decreases by 10) freewebnovёl.ƈom
The tactical intention of the Elf King in the first round is obvious, and how could he not understand it?
Indeed, what these little elves fear the most is damage reduction because their attack power is too low.
points of damage reduction can directly prevent them from dealing any damage.
Of course, not all the elf cards in the opposing deck have 10 points of attack power, some have very low attack power.
For instance:
[Iron Elf]
Berserk, 30 points, A
Attack 30, 60/100
[Hard-fought birth - Passive]: Iron Elf’s score +20
[Iron Sharpness - Passive]: Iron Elf’s attack ignores [Defense]
[Metallic Strength - Passive]: Iron Elf’s attack power +10
[Refined Steel - 50 Health Points]: Iron Elf’s attack power +10, limited to one time only for this round
Like other Pseudo A-Level Elf cards, as a compensation for [Hard-fought birth], it has the purely +10 attack power condition.
This is quite rare.
After releasing the whole skill, this card has 30 points of attack power.
Plus the scene card’s 10 points, that’s a total of 40 points.
And it also ignores [Defense], which is a major concern for Ree Shil.
The other card is [Fire Elemental].
[Fire Elemental]
Breaking Force, 30 points, A
Attack 20, 100/100, 1/4
[Hard-fought birth - Passive]: Fire Elemental’s score +20
[Fire Fervor - Passive]: Fire Elemental’s attack power +10
[High-Temperature Burning - Passive]: Fire Elemental’s damage is accompanied by 1 round [Ignition] effect
[Heavenly Fire Meteor - 4 Energy Points]: Fire Elemental moves to an empty card slot and initiates an attack on all adjacent enemies
The existence of this card, among other reasons, is to reduce the other party’s healing effect.
Then ignoring the powerful Area Of Effect (AOE) of friend and foe, it can also cause massive DPS and spread [Ignition] at critical moments.
"Hehe..."
At this moment, seeing the [Floral Jade Deer] appear, the Elf King smiles slightly.
"Putting up a healing card, huh, it’s all within my plans."
"Firstly, your healing effect will be shackled by my [Fire Elemental]."
"Secondly, by putting up a healing card, the overall attack rhythm will slow down."
"As a result, the number of rounds for the card game will inevitably increase."
"My Elf Deck is bound to stack up two 5-round attack power increments."
His tone, is brimming with confidence.
