It was Lu Shen's sixth turn.
First, using 5 Mana Crystals, he placed the Gadgetzan Auctioneer onto the battlefield.
Gadgetzan Auctioneer, Minion card, 5 Cost, 4/4.
"Whenever you cast a spell, draw a card."
A green-skinned Goblin in a blue tunic, with one hand on his hip and the other giving a thumbs-up, stood smiling on the field.
Lu Shen looked at the two large walls, 5/10 and 8/8, on the opponent's side of the field, and chose to temporarily avoid their sharpness.
Azure Drake and SI:7 Agent remained still, not attacking.
With only 1 Mana Crystal left, Lu Shen used the spell card Conceal.
A grey mist descended from the sky, covering Lu Shen's side of the battlefield.
Gadgetzan Auctioneer, Azure Drake, and SI:7 Agent all entered "Stealth" mode.
"Only here do I have the best deals!"
Since Conceal was a spell card, it triggered the Gadgetzan Auctioneer's skill effect, drawing one card.
A Blade Flurry was added to his hand.
Turn ended.
...
It was Sada Kojiro's sixth turn.
When he saw Lu Shen use Conceal, turning all his minion cards into "Stealth" mode.
Sada Kojiro found this scene quite laughable in his heart.
"Aren't they just a few small fries?"
"He's even hiding them like treasures."
"Even if you don't use Conceal, I won't clear the board."
"If you want to hit my face, you must first get past these two walls."
"The advantage is with me, and the initiative is also with me."
"I can freely hit your face, while you can only passively clear my board!"
Sada Kojiro's confidence was overflowing.
He believed that, given the current situation on the field, he already had victory in his grasp.
With the 5/10 War Tree and the 8/8 Eldritch Horror, two large "Taunts" holding the line.
There was no longer a need to add any other "Taunt" minions.
So.
Sada Kojiro played his second War Tree, choosing to add +5 Attack.
On the battlefield, an ancient tree "uprooted" itself.
Next to the 5/10 War Tree, a 10/5 War Tree appeared.
"You cannot stop the power of nature."
Sada Kojiro smugly showed a "threat" emote, controlling his minions on the field to attack.
Two large walls kicked face.
"Bang!"
-5.
"Bang!"
-8.
Finally, 2 Mana Crystals remained.
Sada Kojiro used the Druid's Hero Power, Shapeshift, and hit face again.
"For nature."
-1.
No rope burn, turn ended.
...
At this time, the Druid still had 26 Health plus 1 Armor.
And the Rogue, after suffering an attack, had only 10 Health remaining.
On the board.
The Druid had three high-quality minions.
A 5/10 War Tree with Taunt.
An 8/8 Eldritch Horror with Taunt.
And a 10/5 War Tree hiding behind the two large walls.
On the other hand, the Rogue's side.
A 3/3 SI:7 Agent.
A 4/4 Gadgetzan Auctioneer.
And a 4/4 Azure Drake.
Although there were also three minions on the field.
Their stats were simply no match for the Druid's three minions.
Inside the National Luck Arena Livestream.
Almost all foreign netizens had already pre-judged the outcome of this match.
"Health advantage, board advantage, I have no idea how the Druid could lose this game!"
"The Rogue's two 4-attack minions can barely trade with the 8/8 'Big Tree', and there's still a 5/10 War Tree left, how can the Rogue even get past the wall?"
"What's behind the wall? Behind the wall is a 10/5 War Tree."
"Next turn, the Druid only needs 10 attack to kick face, and the Rogue is done for."
"Even if the Rogue top-decks next turn and draws Edwin VanCleef, it won't be able to turn the tide."
"The funniest thing is that the people of Xia Kingdom actually hid those little minions like treasures, as if they were afraid Sada Kojiro would clear the board."
"Exactly, Sada Kojiro has 'Taunt' on the board, wouldn't clearing the board be superfluous?"
"The situation is set, against a fully formed Ramp Druid, the Xia Kingdom's deck is no match at all."
...
Situation set?
If Lu Shen could see the bullet comments, he would definitely ridicule these people for their ignorance.
If there's Taunt, you don't clear the board?
Is the strength of the board only judged by minion stats?
Do you know why this deck is called Miracle Rogue?
Because as long as your Health hasn't reached zero, you can create a miracle at any time!
As long as the Gadgetzan Auctioneer is on the field, anything is possible.
What's more, there's also an Azure Drake on the field to increase spell damage.
Not clearing the board?
You will inevitably pay the price for it!
It was Lu Shen's seventh turn.
Draw a card.
A Cold Blood was added to his hand.
Lu Shen currently had 5 cards in hand: Backstab, Cold Blood, Blade Flurry, and two Deadly Poisons.
After a brief thought, Lu Shen already had a plan in mind.
First, use Backstab on the Eldritch Horror.
Because the Azure Drake had the "Spell Damage +1" effect.
The Backstab, which originally dealt 2 damage, now dealt 3 damage.
"Only here do I have the best deals!"
At the same time, the Gadgetzan Auctioneer's effect activated, drawing one card.
A second Cold Blood was added to his hand.
Next, Lu Shen used two Deadly Poisons.
Deadly Poison, Spell card, 1 Cost.
"Give your weapon +2 Attack."
The 1/2 Dagger originally equipped by the Rogue had now become 5/2 after two poison applications.
"Only here do I have the best deals!"
Similarly, Deadly Poison was a spell card.
After using the spell card, the Gadgetzan Auctioneer's effect activated.
A Preparation was added to his hand.
An SI:7 Agent was added to his hand.
Currently.
The Rogue controlled by Lu Shen had only 10 Health remaining.
His hand consisted of two Cold Bloods, Blade Flurry, Preparation, and SI:7 Agent, a total of five cards.
On the board, stood three minions that had not yet acted: a 4/4 Azure Drake, a 4/4 Gadgetzan Auctioneer, and a 3/3 SI:7 Agent.
As for his opponent, Sada Kojiro.
The Druid still had 26 Health plus 1 Armor.
On the board were a 10/5 War Tree, a 5/10 War Tree with "Taunt," and an 8/5 Eldritch Horror with "Taunt."
Lu Shen pondered for a moment, performing addition and subtraction within "30" in his mind.
Ten seconds later, the damage calculation was complete.
This turn, he could achieve the Execute!
"Let's go!"
Lu Shen controlled the Rogue, picking up his dagger to attack the 5/10 War Tree with "Taunt."
"Bang!"
The 5/10 War Tree became 5/5.
And the Rogue's Health, was left with only 5 points.
