Shadowverse

Against a stunned, heavily armored dragon, sitting next to a Bahamut/Bahamuts and with a new spell targeting a Zoban – that’s a perfectly rational choice.

I am a winner in life.

Damn, what was I thinking? Look at this.
The Elf reserves one Evolve for himself and doesn't touch it. On some turn, the Claw pulls out an Anomaly. On the next turn, we place a free Anomaly. We Evolve. We remove the Ward (if there is one) or just trade. Then we release Ariette. Profit!!!
I'm going to test it to see if there are any hidden drawbacks. Maybe the Evolve isn't even needed.

When I see a new map featuring the Judge of Retribution, this song starts playing in my head:

Wow, you got a lot of gold... Although there aren't many legends, even if it's Ginger.

But Ginger is terrible. Only Anomaly is worse. And my tactic doesn't seem to be working well. Definitely not without Evolution. I'll try with Evolution now. On the bright side: the butler reduces the price if you play a card that the Clown drew.

I think the anomaly won't be able to attack a creature on the turn it appears, even after evolving and with Ariette. Because it says "ability to attack again," not "storm." But it's best to test it.

I thought about that too, but just in case. Then it will be mega-awesome, haha.

Yes, Vish, you're right. I only managed to rush. Now I'm crafting bolts.

By the way, I got a bit carried away and crafted three Wardens.

Another nice touch. You can place a Bolt from a very tall tower to test its strength.

I read somewhere about the criticism regarding the new English voice acting for Tsubaki. I became curious and listened to it myself. I wish I hadn't. My first thought was, "Why?!!", and the second was that it must be an April Fool's joke. It seems I should switch to the Japanese voice acting after all. By the way, I've been playing with the English voice acting for about a week now (before that, I played with the Russian voice acting for two years). I still think that the most annoying thing about the English voice acting is the phrase "job's done" at the end of a turn, but it's quite quiet, and I often press the button before it plays, so I can get used to it. Otherwise, I quickly got used to what seemed like the "lack of expressiveness" in many of the phrases, and now I can't say that the Russian voice acting is better than the English one, or vice versa – it's more like 50/50 in my opinion.

Well, Mordekai won't be competing with dragons in ranked matches anymore :( He was doing pretty well, though. I opened 34 packs: I got two Ihtar demonlords (one animated), a forest anomaly, a hulking giant, and an animated Aegis. Seems pretty good; I was immediately motivated to create a rush deck for the Rune, as I have many corresponding followers that I haven't disenchanted, planning to play with sigils someday. Well, the time has come. It's a shame that I only have one Hulk so far, but I've already managed to win a few games with it. Playing as Earth is now more aggressive than before, but you can also build a pretty good defense if needed. I haven't done anything with the others yet. Having acquired two new legendaries for my favorite crafting, I really want to use them somewhere, but they don't fit into my shadow deck, and I don't have enough of the right cards to create something suitable. It's a shame, because now a lot of Mordekais won't be as effective, and an alternative would be helpful. And I also remembered that I hadn't finished the new campaign and decided to fix that. The bot on the last chapter of the Moon simply amazed me - in 6 turns, all it did was play two bloodcraft spells to deal damage to itself and draw cards. But on turn 7, it played a frontguard general, and on turn 8, it played Neftis, who summoned and destroyed Leonid :o However, I still won easily; the burglar had already lost a large amount of health. 6 turns of practically no action - it's an autoloss not only against agro decks. By the way, I noticed that playing against bots in the campaign and practice is more interesting than playing against some players in ranked. Although sometimes the computer does something stupid and funny, like a person who doesn't understand the game. For example: there's one walking corpse on the board and nothing else. What does the computer do? It summons a clay golem, spends an evolve on it, and destroys the corpse, naturally losing the follower itself in the process, a 4-4. It's so hard to misplay even by inattention

I tested Ginger. She's decent for a controller unit, especially considering her low cost. However, you need to keep in mind that she heals followers who haven't moved yet. But with Remy-Rami's evolve and Marazmus's end-of-round effect, things worked out well. It's a shame I couldn't test her with Pascal.

I'm a winner in life. I crafted all the vials of bolts and claws, and first went to fight an artificial idiot. In the first seven rounds, I got three bolts. Somewhere around the tenth round, the first claw finally appeared.

Something doesn't seem to be working out. Maybe I should craft Eyrin and Forest's Will, but even then, the early game is slow, and I don't even know who to replace with them. Perhaps I should just scrap the Grove altogether.
