First of all, you can tell just by looking that this isn't going to be a one-sided battle at all, because my opponent also has some very good cards. In fact, he's chosen an Archon that has equipped his entire team with the Thorns ability, which means those cards are not only good at attacking but also excellent at protecting and retaliating. Although I didn't like the enemy team's lineup much, from a team perspective, it's a strong and formidable team.
On the other hand, regarding my team, I appointed Fabino, the Earth element Underboss, as the Archon in this battle, which granted my two melee cards +2 melee attack power. In this battle, I primarily relied on melee and magic attacks, although one of my cards also has a ranged attack ability. Besides that one card, all my other cards are melee and magic attackers. My lineup includes a melee tank with the Double Strike ability, followed by the two Kindred brothers, then a healer, and finally two more magic cards. The Kindred brothers empowered each other, granting themselves the Ambush and True Strike abilities. As a result, the second card in my lineup gained the Ambush ability, and the card immediately behind it gained the True Strike ability, the devastating effects of which you will see later in the battle.
Here's a glimpse of the mayhem you're witnessing. One of the opponent's cards, which initially had 11 health, was knocked out in less than a third of the first round, and the other one was also knocked out in the first round itself. Well, if you want to know how, I suggest you watch the entire battle, and I promise you'll not only enjoy it but might even learn something about strategic thinking in this game. However, the battle has just begun, and remember that the opponent still has some pretty powerful cards, and one of them is Quora Towershead, which should not be underestimated.
But these formidable brothers didn't take long to take down Quora Towershead either, and by the middle of the second round, this powerful enemy card was also knocked out. However, this wasn't solely due to these two kindred brothers; the rest of the team's cards also contributed. For example, the healer strengthened the tank, and the card with the taunt ability diverted enemy attacks, giving the two brothers enough time. After boosting their attack power with Archon and utilising each other's abilities, True Strike and Ambush performed so consistently well that even a powerful enemy team was brought to its knees in just two rounds.
You could feel the dominance of my cards in this battle right from the start, because although this duo performed incredibly well and knocked out the most powerful enemy cards, it's also true that the summoner and other cards played a big role in empowering and strengthening them. The first card, with double strike ability, also contributed significantly by standing firm and giving these brothers the freedom to perform at their best. Otherwise, these cards might not have been able to launch such effective attacks continuously, and the battle's outcome would have been different, or perhaps the enemy would have felt less pressure. Overall, it was a perfect coordination of the entire team, but above all, the camaraderie and kindred spirit between these two cards made the game one-sided and incredibly enjoyable.
