Hi guys this is my first time posting weekly challenge and I'm excited to see how this post is going to turn out (first time using center tag, hope it is correct).
Below are some card details quoted.
THEME: GOBLIN PSYCHIC
Edition: CHAOS LEGION
Rarity: COMMON
Element: EARTH Attack:
MAGIC Abilities: Tank Heal
"The Magi Tower is where Goblins go to learn how to use psychic abilities. It isn't just a gift Goblins can learn, but due to the proximity of Gobson, Goblins tend to show up more frequently. The Magi who calls the tower home, enjoys teaching the art of using one's mind to move objects and read thoughts. Goblin Psychics use their abilities to perform work in Gobson or become adventurers and practice to become a full fledged Summoner."

I don't have this card but it's free to use so I was able to use it during my battle.
| Card | Mana | Reason/thoughts |
|---|---|---|
| Obsidian | 4 | Wanted to complete daily quest😅 |
| Failed Summoner | 2 | Saw opponent's battle history used alot of magic, hoping to reflect them back and kill it |
| Unicorn Mustang | 8 | Saw opponent's battle history used alot of magic, wanted to reduce damage |
| Goblin Psychic | 6 | Tank heal✨, gotta heal heal heal |
| Goblin Thief | 4 | Took me a long time to decide if I should use this because wanted to make use of the +1 magic for obsidian but decided against it because opponent history show goblin psychic to be usually one of the cards placed at the back. |
To use this card, the first card needs to have a lot of health to be effective. Else, what is there to heal? With a low health, the monster might die before goblin psychic get to heal it since goblin psychic only has a speed of 1. The monster would probably take a lot of damage before it gets healed if the monster has a high speed.
When I first saw the opponent's lineup, I was glad that I used goblin thief, because goblin psychic was indeed placed as one of the cards at the back.
The battle mana cap was 24 with the "Broken Arrows" ruleset.
Broken Arrows: Ranged attack Monsters may not be used in battles
Both of us chose obsidian as the summoner and have the 3 cards Failed Summoner, Unicorn Mustang and Goblin Psychic though they were in a different position.
The Failed Summoner being in the first position, was not fully utilised and only managed to reflect one magic to Khmer Princess. Most of the health was damaged by Unicorn Mustang 😒
The opponent's Unicorn Mustang was healed back to full health while mine was damaged to health 8, unable to heal because Goblin Psychic already used its power 😩.
Now I'm panicking because my Unicorn Mustang is at a low health and the opponent is still healing!!
Ah, finally, the tank heal is gone! My Unicorn Mustang's health healed while the opponent's one couldn't.
That 1 health of Unicorn Mustang really saved my team because it could still heal while the opponent's got KO'ed.
When it was Failed Summoner's time to shine in opponent's team, my team did not fear because well, Goblin Psychic has 3 health, didn't get KO'ed by the opponent.
I won 😋
Of course! This is a card that has helped me through most of my battles especially those with high mana. Additionally with the 2 magic and a +1 one obsidian, this card is really powerful when used correctly and has the protection it needs.
