This time we will talk about the ability Life Leech or Vampirismo in Spanish, this ability can be similar to others that allow healing or restoring life, but in this case the ability increases life every time the monster causes damage.

In several elements we can see cards that have this ability, but I will focus on my favorite cards of the elements death and water, which have magic attack, for the use of these cards is necessary to place them in a good position to prevent them from receiving damage and thus have the opportunity to restore as much life, therefore, it is good to use it in the third or fourth position, everything will depend on the Mana of the battle.
In the water element we have Runemancer Kye and Merdhampir, while in the death element we have Venari Bonesmith and Life Sapper, of the mentioned cards I usually use more frequently the cards that have magic attack, that is to say, I use Merdhampir in few occasions, now let's see the advantages of each of these cards and how to implement them in the battles.
- Runemancer Kye: This card has a high Mana consumption and is very useful, since it has the flying ability and Life Leech, besides that it has a magic attack of 2, a good speed, it also has an amount of shield and life that favors it when the Life Leech ability is activated, that is to say, it starts to increase the life from 8, for this reason it is likely that the life increases to more than 15 or 20 during the battle.
- Venari Bonesmith and Life Sapper: These two are very similar, the only difference is that Venari Bonesmith starts the battle with 3 life and the Life Sapper card with 2, while in the speed they exchange the previous values, but the attack is the same, that is, it has 1 magic attack, when using these cards I usually use Cursed Windeku in the first position, to prevent them from quickly reaching these cards with the Life Leech ability, which gives you the opportunity to increase the life; sometimes they exceed 7 or 11 life per battle.
Conclusion.
Now we see some battles where these cards make use of this fantastic ability, but first I should mention that it is quite opportune to be able to increase the life per attack, since when they are in the 1 against 1 they can take a slight advantage in each round, on the other hand, traditional healing cards may have little life and may end up leaving the battles faster, therefore, the ability would be of temporary use.
