Chapter 1138: Chapter 435: New Species Card vs. New Species Card_2
Because the King Card on the opposite side is a Giant Card, the anti-Giant card entry can be considered fully covered throughout the game.
Then, this "Barrier" of 1 layer every round also severely counters high-attack Giant Cards.
High attack, thick blood, has survival.
This is definitely a card deeply favored by the designers, a top A Level Card.
Moreover, the [Knockback] effect also belongs to the mandatory displacement that breaks defenses.
It not only breaks defense but can also trigger [Collision] to increase damage.]
Hunchback Woman: [Now, we might have no choice but to attack this card in the right column.
Otherwise, if we leave it alone, it really will be a big problem.]
Museum Director Phoenix: [Yes, even though its "even numbered rounds" refers to the card game round number.
It wonât be triggered infinitely by Timeâs [The Path] every round, but twice hitting [Knockback] in the big even-numbered rounds is enough to cause the opponent a headache.]
Hunchback Woman: [Especially when it chooses [Pointed Shield Kingâs Guard] as the target of [Knockback], the damage will be high.
A single [Collision] counts as two.]
However, this round is the 5th round, so [Special Operator] cannot play [Knockback].
On Ree Shilâs side, [Flawless Galaxy] returns to the field, dealing a total of 90 points of [Fixed Damage] of 30+30+30 to the middle row on Mayâs side.
Quite substantial.
Just because of the output of its 1 card, the [Medical Operator] on the opposite side is already at her witâs end.
Then the Stone Monkey turns back into a live monkey and, under [Defense] state, is again swapped by the [Crow Pigeon Messenger] to the Headline District position.
[Peach Blossom Jade Deer] then provides afterhand Healing to [False Saint].
The remaining [Pointed Shield Kingâs Guard] attacks [Special Operator] while on [Defense], [Weapon Master] attacks [Special Operator].
As for [Spirit Lord], due to the presence of [barrier], attacks another target.
But on Mayâs side, they also made a solid choice of [Defense] with the Outer Cards.
The remaining cards provided support where needed, and dealt damage where needed.
The 5th round ends, the card faces of both sides are as follows:
[Set card][Doctor][Set card]
[Magician][Set card][Set card]
[Sniping][Medical][Time]
[Vanguard][Heavy Equipment][Special]
VS
[Sharp Shield][King Guard][Monkey]
[Set card][Star River][Weapon]
[Set card][Jade Deer][Crow Dove]
[Soul Sovereign][Soul Sovereign][Soul Sovereign]
Hunchback Woman: [Ah, this is the 5th round already, and from a certain perspective, neither side has had a card exit yet.
I thought I was watching a 6+1 card round.
But in a 6+1 card round, the regular cards would all be Revealed by the 5th round, maybe already storming the doorsteps of the opposing King Card.]
đłđđ˛đđ¨đđŻđđđ§đđš.đ°đźđ
Museum Director Phoenix: [In a high-level duel, thereâs no room for mistakes.
Both sides are very cautious and unwilling to be the first to show a Flaw.
Their pace is slow indeed, but it feels so much more exciting than those boring bladder matches with nothing but healing.]
Hunchback Woman: [I suspect youâre alluding to something, but indeed, youâre quite right.]
A New round arrives, and itâs the Unveiling Stage again.
On Mayâs side, the card behind [Time Comprehender] is first Revealed.
[Let me sing a song for you~]
A beauty idol holding a Microphone steps upwards on a temporary stage.
Animated, notes swirl around her.
And sheâs also accompanied by an endlessly looping musical intro, as if about to enter the main song at any moment.
[Support Operator]
Universal Love, 30 Points, A
Attack 0, 100/100, 0/3
[Encore-Passive]: When a Support Operator uses a Skill, 1 Energy Point is returned
[Stage Singer-Passive]: Support Operatorâs Attack Power reduced by 30, automatically recovers 1 Energy Point each round
[Song of Encouragement -2 Energy Points]: Support Operator gives 1 target 10 points of Powerlessness
[Song of Passion -2 Energy Points]: Support Operator causes 1 target to fall under the Effect of Silence
Hunchback Woman: [Wow! There are even New Species Cards in this operator deck!]
It seems that this card deck was recently collected by player May.]
Museum Director Phoenix: [You can tell, this card is prepared to counter Sheep God.
[Fatigue] and [Silence] are the negative effects Sheep God dislikes the most.
And whatâs powerful about this card is that it can use Skills non-stop throughout the game.
If it sets its sights on you, even Sheep God can only attack normally.
One can say it is a complete counter card, just short of having "I counter Sheep God" written on its forehead.]
Hunchback Woman: [Eh, but whatâs with these Skill names.
Encouraging Song causes Fatigue, Passionate Song causes Silence.
This is criticizing singers!
May was actually more worried that Ree Shil would bring out Sheep God.
Especially in the situation where "Since you have 2 S-rank Cards, Iâll bring out 3."
So sheâd rather give up 30 Points to directly guard against Sheep God.
If a 30 Points A Level Card can lock down a 20 Points S-rank Card, thatâs undoubtedly a win.]
However, it was clear that even if Ree Shil pulled out the Sheep God now, it wouldnât be revealed in the Next Line.
This round, the card he pulled was also a new card.
It was a card never before shown to the public.
This card was not an S-rank Card but an A Level Card.
[Roar...!]
A creature that looked like an earthworm but had a dragonâs head and horns, a long dragon without feet or wings, crawled out from the card face.
[Climbing Dragon]
Withering, 30 Points, A
Attack 30, 100/100, 0/3
[Barbaric Growth - Passive]: Climbing Dragon is unaffected by external displacement, increases its own slot by 1 during [Movement]
[Infinite Body - Passive]: Climbing Dragon increases its maximum Health Points limit by 50 for every additional slot it occupies
[Ground Rock Roar - Passive]: The round Climbing Dragon is Revealed Card, it gains a 30-point [Shield] for 1 Round
[Earth Dragon Crawl -1 point of energy]: Climbing Dragon Moves 1 slot toward the adjacent position in front of its head
Hunchback Woman: [Wow! Contestant 1 Henry Thompson also has New Species Cards!]
Museum Director Phoenix: [This card can be seen as a counter card for Special Operator.
Itâs not afraid of displacement, and once the Pointed Shield Kingâs Guard exits, it can take its place to continue protecting the back row.
Indeed, itâs a very timely and good card.]
Both sides finished revealing their cards, and the Action Phase arrived.
This round, cards finally started exiting the game in a real sense.
The first to be killed off was [Vanguard Operative].
This was somewhat unexpected.
Because up until now, Ree Shil had always been targeting the middle and right columns.
On his side, [Pointed Shield Kingâs Guard] was tough and always in [Defense].
[False Saint] and [Weapon Master] had been rotating, taking turns to absorb damage.
So the Outer Cards were temporarily safe.
At the end of the 6th round, both sidesâ card faces were as follows:
[Set card][Doctor][Set card]
[Magician][Set card][Support]
[Sniping][Medical][Time]
[Empty Slot][Heavy Equipment][Special]
VS
[Sharp Shield][King Guard][Stone Monkey]
[Climbing Dragon][Star River][Weapon]
[Set card][Jade Deer][Crow Dove]
[Soul Sovereign][Soul Sovereign][Soul Sovereign]
"Itâs over, itâs already over."
Looking at the card spread, Ree Shil suddenly said.
[Ah?]
The person opposite, Mei, didnât understand.
Similar conversations were happening in the Commentary Booth.
Museum Director Phoenix: [Itâs over, itâs already over.]
Hunchback Woman: [Ah?]
Museum Director Phoenix: [Donât be fooled by the fact that both sides have revealed the same number of cards, and Mei even has the advantage of 1 card.
But do you know why itâs her Outer Cards that exit the field first?]
Hunchback Woman: [Because our side has higher Attack Power.]
Museum Director Phoenix: [What you say isnât wrong.
To counter the Sheep God that could be revealed at any moment, Mei invested too much card power.
With 8 cards revealed, she should have around 240 points of Attack Power.
But letâs count carefully, including the just exited [Vanguard Operative], the total Attack Power on her card face.]
Hunchback Woman: [30+0+40+40+30+0+30+0...
Uh, thatâs a total of 170 points.
[Support Operator][Time Comprehender][Commander Doctor], these three cards have no Attack Power.
But in terms of Outer Cards, she does lead by 200 Health Points thanks to swapping cards.]
Museum Director Phoenix: [Now count our side, how much DPS we have.]
Hunchback Woman: [20+30+20+0+30+30+30+50...
points.
But since [Peach Blossom Jade Deer] doesnât contribute to DPS, thatâs 180 points.]
Museum Director Phoenix: [But donât forget that although [Flawless Galaxy] has an Attack Power of 0,
it can reliably deal 90 points of Damage in 2 rounds, so thatâs 45 points here.
Adding that up, doesnât it come to 225 points?]
Hunchback Woman: [Indeed, so youâre saying that our total output has now exceeded the other side by more than 50 points.
How did this noticeable gap occur without us realizing it?]
