One of the most exciting aspects of a new expansion, a new group of cards and new abilities, is that in addition to seeing the new cards and the new possibilities in new strategies, it can also affect the price of the cards, depressing some but also appreciating others. As its use is more important to counteract the possible new strategy as it is essential to disarm it, this is the case of this very dangerous card for those who do not use magic.

MANTAROTH

This card is anti melee and ranged attacks due to its SHIELD ability reducing its damage-

in addition to having TRUE STRIKE which ensures that he will hit his hit.

It has REPAIR which allows it to regenerate its shield which already makes it dangerous and even more unbeatable, it has BLAST which will allow it to eliminate the card from the first second row also while eliminating the one from the first row.

What makes it more dangerous is the ARMORED STRIKE ability since it will increase its attack power with the shield it has.

This card, especially in battles with the rule that does not allow the use of magic cards or that only melee cards can be used, would be lethal and very difficult to win and could only be countered and will give even more value to cards like the summoner. red, ETERNAN BRUNE.

Cards that reduce the shield would be essential to counteract this monster since they would not only reduce his shield but also reduce his attack power, this will make this summoner possibly when unlocked and go on sale be one of the most expensive and even more Yes, it is golden thanks to the new ability as well as cards that have this shield reduction ability RUST.

All those who have this ability will be even more important to counteract the power of MANTAROTH and even more valuable the earlier and at a lower level they have this ability since it could be used to counteract this monster in levels and leagues from bronze or silver where There are more people who can be and afford to be in the market, so new players will look for the summoner that I indicated and others that they could look for would be.

NOA THE JUST

that has the ability at level 1 that although cards with magical attacks are MANTAROTH's weakness, however, the enemy could use the summoner IMMORTALIS in a green deck, which would make MANTAROTH even more unbeatable, protecting it from magical attacks and also disarming it. to another MANTAROTH of the opponent with another ability that I will analyze below.

As we see, this shield reduction ability even on cards with magic will be important and no longer irrelevant since these will have the function of reducing damage indirectly by cards with the ARMORED STRIKE ability.

SPORCERER

is another of the anti-magic cards that could increase in price since it does not seem so useless even in magic-only strategies since it could reduce the attack of cards used with the ARMORED STRIKE ability.

All cards with this ability will be fundamental but the earlier they acquire the ability, the more used they will be since in a lower level league such as the BRONZE or SILVER league they can be used or in tournaments where the maximum league that can be used is limited.

Every summoner that reduces the shield will be important to use to counter MANTAROTH and every card with the ARMORED STRIKE ability.

Another skill that will acquire new importance and could increase the price of the cards that have it is SHATTER.

This ability destroys the opponent's shield with a single blow, so in this way we would be ensuring not only eliminating the shield to attack the monster faster but also reducing its attack power.

Again, the cards that benefit most from the potential increase in pressure could be.

Again, the cards that benefit most from the potential increase in pressure could be.

FLAMESMITH, RADIATED SCORCHER, WEIRDING WARRIOR, IMMORTALIS which has it at level 1 and could be even more used and appreciated.

WAR PEGASUS could be essential because in addition to having the ability, this card is fast so it could attack the card before it attacks, reducing the potential damage earlier.

These are the skills and cards that potentially serve to counter MANTAROTH and mainly strategies that use ARMORED STRIKE's ability even more in addition to the new skills, another one that works but we still cannot see what cards they will have.

CORROSIVE WARD

When hit with a Melee attack, a unit with this ability does 2 damage to the attacker's Armor AND reduces the attacker's max Armor by 2. This is the nemesis to the Repair ability. You can't Repair something that's been melted into acidic goo! Note that this only affects units with Armor.

That is to say, this ability would be the most lethal against MANTAROTH and the other strategy that uses the ARMORED STRIKE ability in addition to using the REPAIR ability since it works similar to CRIPPLE, reducing the shield but by -2.

The bad thing is that this only works on tanks since to activate it it must be hit with shield cards, which reduces its relative effectiveness.

In order not to expand further on the abilities that will benefit MANTAROTH and cards that have the ARMORED STRIKE ability in the next article.

I hope you liked it and we look forward to your criticisms and suggestions.
