Continuing my saga to reach the current challenges, today I bring the Reverse Speed rule, I'm still suffering to climb in ranked matches, but in the midst of this chaos I managed to find a victory with this rule to post here, it was a silver league match in the modern format.
🌟 REVERSE SPEED 🌟
Rule | Description |
---|---|
REVERSE SPEED | Monster With the lowest speed attack first and have the highest chance of evading attacks. |
Finally, a rule that I like after several posts with rules that only interfered on my card choices, finally came one that changes the basis of the game, Reverse Speed makes the unit with less speed attack first and dodge better than a unit with a lot of speed, distraction when setting up your line-up can cost yours the victory, I usually make a lot of mistakes with this distraction, because I love using fast blue units and the speed bonus of the Kelya summoner 🤣.
When I realize that I can't put a ton of speed on the table, I try to use a strong team with less speed as possible, because units with low speed usually have their other stats increased to compensate for the lack of speed. I think that a maximum of 3 speed is fine for playing here, more than that will miss a lot of attacks, and you'll be one of the last to move.
We certainly have almost useless skills in this rule, so I'm going to mention the ones I like the most and the ones I hate using in this rule 😁.
Best Skills
Abilities | Nome | Description |
---|---|---|
Bloodlust | This skill has the best snowball effect in the game, if you let a unit stake points it is almost impossible to stop it later, I love this skill. | |
Blast | This is also one of my favorites for almost all rules, it removes small shields and divine shields easily. | |
Protect | You will rarely face a team completely made up of magical damage nowadays, which is why this skill is being used more and more, it protects your fragile units very well. | |
Poison | I'm not a big fan of abilities that depend on luck to activate, but thanks to units like Chaos Jailer or the new summoner Underboss Fabino I'm rethinking their use 😍. | |
Ambush | Amazing ability, its activation before the start of the first round is incredible and helps to put negative statuses on units before the game even starts 😄. |
Worst Skills
Abilities | Nome | Description |
---|---|---|
Slow | With the Reverse Speed rule, this debuff will end up helping your opponent, transforming it into a nice buff for them 🤣. | |
Swiftness | Similar to the Slow skill, but it will end up being a terrible debuff for your team, don't use it 🤣. | |
Scattershot | Sometimes it's fun to disrupt your opponent's perfect formation, but most of the time it ends up messing me up and spreading my damage all over the field instead of concentrating it on specific targets. |
⚔️ My Team ⚔️
Card | LineUP |
---|---|
Summoner : Good debuffs and your element has good cheap units. | |
Tank : One of the best tanks for this amount of mana, very resistant and can counterattack with thorns, should hold the front line for at least 2 rounds. | |
Off-Tank: Incredible card, if it manages to poison the target in the ambush it is almost certain to knock it out due the poison in the following turns, almost always present in my line-ups. | |
DPS: Only 3 mana to deal 3 physical damage, I think it's an excellent cost/damage 🤘. | |
MeatShield : Nice meat shield for my DPS, it will protect him from sneak and attacks of opportunity. |
🤜The Battle 🤛
Analyzing the match: Both players chose the same element and summoner, my Chaos Jailer will be extremely effective if it poisons any of the targets, because the entire opponent's back line has only 1 HP, my opponent has a lot of armor mainly due to the Protect skill bonus, Windeku's counterattack will be useless.
Round 1 - In the ambush as usual my Chaos Jailer hits and poisons Moxian Rebel, so at the beginning of the first round she dies due to the poison, with no more eliminations after that. If I defeat the Ravenwood Warden, victory will be close.
Round 2 - The round starts with the opposing tank leaving the game, shortly afterwards the Chaos Agent is also eliminated, but almost at the end my Windeku is knocked out.
Round 3 - Right at the beginning Jailer, now in first position, manages to poison Ravemwood, but the one who knocks out in this round is Soul Strangler, victory is very close.
Round 4 - Finally, victory arrived, Jailer shot down the Weirding Warrior and in the end Soul Strangler dealt the final blow on Corpse Fiend.
🎊 Conclusion 🎊
A game with few mana is usually very quick, most units will have low HP, as they cheap, will hardly resist poison damage, especially with Thaddius Brood's debuff that reduces HP, Chaos Jailer applied poison to almost everyone of his hits, highlighting the Moxian Rebel who died due to the poison before it could even do anything 😃, Cursed Windeku even resisted as expected, its ability was useless here 😂, Soul Strangler was not bothered and managed to hit freely in the match.
The Reverse Speed rule is intriguing, but both players bet on cards with an average speed between 2 and 3, only the powerful Moxian Rebel unit could enjoy the maximum power of this rule, but it was eliminated before even attacking, certainly the best way to play with this rule is avoiding using units with 4 or more speed 😁.
That's it for now, until the next post.
