Chapter 682: True and False Armor Forger!
[Aujin Axe] is very powerful, providing 5 damage immediately in the equipment round, and can use the remaining durability to deal another 5 damage in the future.
If you target both attacks on the enemy hero, this is almost a low-configuration version of [Flame Blast], and the cost is lower, and the damage is faster.
Su Ming, who originally had 19 HP left, was hit by the [Aojin Axe] with a knife, and his HP became a little dangerous.
19 HP, even if you eat to the limit, the double full damage [Fatal Blow] is followed by [Heroic Strike], it is only 16 points of damage, so that it will not evaporate in an instant.
However, the current Su Ming only has 14 HP.
Especially in the next round, when the pirate war is eager to slash again, this number is more dangerous.
If Saki Shimagaki is a little more lucky, and he draws a double [Heroic Strike] with a [Upgrade] or something like that, it is really possible to kill Su Ming.
Considering the need to save life, in the 5 fee rounds of this back hand, Su Ming's play is naturally based on "recovery":
[Shield Block], 3 mana, gain 5 armor points, draw a card
The simplest and most straightforward way to do this, the Sorcery Single Card that almost any non-aggro Warrior deck will carry.
The cost is low, the effect is comprehensive, and stacking armor can not only increase one's ability to absorb damage, but also have the ability to check the card to obtain resources.
This [Shield Block] changed Su Ming's state to 14 blood and 5 armor, or to put it another way, the ability to bear damage was restored to 19 points.
There is no doubt that this number has gone beyond the slashing line of sudden death and has come to a safe range.
As for the other two mana crystals left in Su Ming's hand, after he smiled slightly, he summoned 1 professional exclusive attendant:
"I'll create the armor that fits!"
[Armorcaster], 2 mana, 1/4, gain 1 armor point every time an allied follower takes damage
……
A new class-exclusive retinue appeared, because Saki Shimagaki realized what Su Ming had summoned almost the moment she heard the lines of her appearance
Of course, she was also instantly curious.
The retinue of [Armor Forger] is actually a bit embarrassing in the current career positioning of warriors.
This question starts with the deck form.
The decks of the warrior class are either pirate warfare, Hongxing warfare, etc., which are biased towards the aggro genre;
Either it is a slower start, relying on the odd number defense war, infinite defense war, even number defense war and other beaten construction that grinds the opponent to death by attrition war.
Of these two types of decks, the former needs to be as irritable as possible and allocate all resources to "damage" in order to cover up the lack of endurance in the later stages.
Therefore, the aggro-type warrior deck undoubtedly does not need a single card like [Armor Forger], which is obviously biased towards defense.
When it comes to defense, all kinds of defense battles are very interested in stacking armor, but the [Armor Forger] still can't enter the construction, because there is another problem in front of it:
It's the same 2 mana, it's also stacked armor, and [Withered Armor Forger] is better than [Armor Forger] in most defensive games!
Adhering to the principle that the longer the name, the more awesome it is, the two retinues are both "armor casters", and the kobold retinue with the prefix "withered beard" will be a little more cost-effective in the battle.
[Withered Armor Forger], 2 man, 2/2, Warcry: Gain 2 armor for each enemy follower
The two are compared, and the gap is immediately apparent.
Ordinary armor casters can only stack 1 armor point at a time, and they have to rely on their own followers to take damage;
In case there is a headwind on the field, and there is no creature to stand safely, then the [Armor Forger] will be almost free to shoot, and it will not generate much profit.
The Withered Armor Forger can be harvested as long as it has an enemy follower, and it is a standard "the more pressure, the better the effect" type of minion;
The enemy has only 1 entourage on the field, and the pressure is not great, so stack 2 armor, no matter what, it is better than nothing;
If the enemy has 7 followers on the field, it will be 14 armor points stacked at once! Approximates the amount of armor provided by 1 [Tower Shield +10].
Because the Warcry is an immediate effect and cannot be countered by the opponent, the income of [Withered Armorcaster] is very stable.
And when it comes to a variety of defensive warrior decks, in most games, it's the warrior who is on the defensive and the opponent is on the move.
In this case, it is difficult for the [Armor Forger] to stack a large amount of armor with the friendly followers, but the [Withered Armor Forger] can steadily slow down the opponent's attack.
The most classic sets of combo skills: "Copper Whisker Meets Withered Armor Forger", "Withered Beard Armor Caster Receives Desperate Brawl", "Withered Beard Armor Caster Receives Shield Slam", these routines almost all take advantage of [Withered Beard Armorcaster] can instantly stack armor.
It stands to reason that in the decks of the warrior class, the [Armor Forger] has been squeezed out of the building space by the [Withered Armor Forger].
In every sense, the latter has a better effect.
However, the "Slave War" card deck used by Su Ming this time clearly stuffed the [Armor Forger] into the structure, which made Saki Shimagaki subconsciously curious.
In this super deck, which is judged to be T0 strength, why does it carry [Armor Forger], which is almost not many people carry?
Saki Shimagaki thought about it for a while, but couldn't come to any conclusions that could convince her, but one thing was clear:
She really didn't dare to just let this [Armor Forger] stand on Su Ming's field and swagger to live until the next round!
The reason is very simple, in the previous round, [Whirlwind Slash] cooperated with the various operations of [Battle Fury], and was stunned to play the scene where the [Acolyte of Pain], which could only trigger the card draw effect at most, was played, and Saki Shimagaki naturally did not forget it.
Although she still hasn't figured out the full form of "Slave Wars", she can probably feel from the previous games that there may be a lot of similar "hurt yourself" operations in this deck.
Therefore, the [Armor Forger] must not be able to stay, and Saki Shimagaki commanded the hero to swing the [Aojin Axe] again and slash it down, killing the target instantly with 5 points of damage.
Inevitably, "Friendly Followers Taken Damage" triggered the special effect of [Armor Forger], and added 1 armor point to Su Ming.
But at least Saki Shimagaki has directly eliminated it, and there will be some bells and whistles behind the province.
In the same round, the battle reached the 6-mana stage, and the pirate war still did not improve much on the scene, but the pressure of some hand endurance to keep up with it has begun to be faintly reflected.
"If the pirate war side wants to win this battle, it can't drag it out any longer, and the battle must end as soon as possible."
Looking at the meaning expressed by the expression on Saki Shimagaki's face, Su Ming couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth slightly.
The other party's reaction was indeed not what he expected.
