[ENG] Explaining the "Dispel" Ability + Fun Match with Venari Spellsmith!
Hello everyone!
This is a video in Portuguese in which I explain in details the "Dispel" ability, an ability that, due its confuse ruling, usually isn't understood by new players. The ability description says that "it clears all positive status effects on that enemy", but what exactly are those "positive status effects"? Many players think that those "positive effects" are, in fact, "positive abilities" like Flying or Dodge. But that's not the case: Dispel only affect positive effects given by some abilities like Protect (+2 extra Armor) or Strenghten (+1 extra Health).
I also analyze the card Venari Spellsmith, a Magic Monster from the Neutral Splinter. In my opinion, the most interesting part of this card lies on its Level 4, when it earns the "Amplify" ability, doubling the damage caused by abilities that reflect damage to the enemy attacking Monsters (like Thorns and Return Fire). Also, this card becomes stronger as the player advances on the Leagues: those positive effects that are removed by the Dispel ability becomes more common on the higher Leagues as players are using higher leveled cards.
The strategy used on the analyzed Battle is the (in)famous Magic Combo, with the Summoner Obsidian (giving +1 Magic Damage to all my team) and lots of Mana-cheap Magic Monsters, as a way to increase the value on Obsidian's buff. The biggest difference between my team and my opponent's team was exactly the amount of Magic Monsters played: more magic Monsters = more extra Magic Damage brought by Obsidian!
Thanks for watching and reading, and until the next post!
[PT-BR] Explicando a Habilidade "Dispel" + Partida Top com Venari Spellsmith!
Fala galera, tudo bom?
Nesse vídeo, eu explico em detalhes a "Dispel", uma habilidade que, por conta das regras confusas, normalmente não é entendida pelos jogadores. Afinal de contas, a descrição da habilidade informa que "ela remove todos os efeitos positivos do inimigo" ("it clears all positive status effects on that enemy"), mas o que são exatamente esses efeitos positivos? Diferentemente do que muitos pensam, esses "efeitos positivos" não são as habilidades positivas (como Flying ou Dodge), e sim alguns efeitos fornecidos por habilidades como Protect (+2 Armor) ou Strenghten (+1 Health).
Depois, eu analiso rapidamente a carta Venari Spellsmith, um Monstro Mágico do Splinter Neutro. Em minha opinião, o maior atrativo dessa carta está no Level 4, quando ela ganha a habilidade "Amplify", dobrando o dano causado pelas habilidades que devolvem ataques ao inimigo atacante (como Thorns e Return Fire). Além disso, a carta se torna cada vez mais relevante a medida em que o jogador avança nas Ligas, visto que os "efeitos positivos" se tornam mais comuns e, portanto, a habilidade Dispel se torna mais útil.
A estratégia usada na Batalha analisada foi o famoso Combo Mágico, com a Summoner Obsidian (que dá +1 de ataque mágico à todo o time) e vários Monstros Mágicos, como forma de aumentar a utilidade do buff da Summoner. A maior diferença entre o meu time e o time adversário foi exatamente a quantidade de Monstros Mágicos que eu joguei: mais Monstros = mais Ataque Mágico extra trazido pela Obsidian!
