NAGA WINDMASTER - An Ability that's hard to find

With this set of rules for this battle, the cards gained 2 Armor and Blast ability, and in this sense Snipe ability and Opportunity are the best option for Blast.
With this I had the feeling that the opponent could choose several Ranged attack cards, so I had a chance to see the Naga Windmaster ability in practice.
For this I chose the Summoner Kelya Frendul to increase my protection and increase the speed, because it would also be important the speed of the cards, to be able to apply Blast first on the opponent.

Diemonshark is good against Melee and Ranged attacks due to his high armor, with high speed he would lead my formation, being one of the first to attack in the battle.
In the second position Flying Squid with Reach skill could attack in battle, its high health points could withstand some Blast effects, in this position the best option would be a card with Shield, Void, or Heal skill, to reduce the damage of the Blast effect.

Sniping Narwhal in the third position was going to be targeted by Snipe attacks, but also possessed this type of attack, a somewhat unguarded choice, but since there was armor reinforcement it could do some damage before being eliminated.
And here Naga Windmaster comes in because it was important to be in a protected position, the Headwinds ability only works while the card is in battle, when it is eliminated the effect is undone on the cards.
Despite having minimal attack, his ability would make a difference on Ranged attack cards, reducing the damage of the Blast effect.

With Blast in battle, it is important to damage as many of your opponent's cards as possible with a single attack, to prevent this you can choose the Taunt skill and have a strong card in the second position.
Since my deck doesn't allow this kind of moves, and playing in Silver League I don't catch many strong players, I opted for the basics and chose two Opportunity attack cards that could work well in this battle, everything depended on the opponent's formation.

Seeing the opponent's fromation, he chose a tank with Taunt ability which was bad for my Snipe and Opportunity attacks, but on the other hand he chose several Ranged attack cards and that was good for me because I had Naga Windmaster in the battle.
The important thing would be to eliminate Shieldbearer so my attacks could damage more cards, but since I had no Magic attack cards I had to go through his high armor first, and for this battle I could also combine Shatter or Rust ability, but since we can only choose 6 cards we have to make choices for each type of battle.

Starting the battle, the first attacks will all be to eliminate armor, the focus of the opponent's attacks are frontline and Snipe attacks that cause Blast to two of my cards, but half of the opponent's formation are Ranged attack cards that can't attack from the frontline of battle, me managing to eliminate Shieldbearer, the battle becomes more balanced and opportunity for me to be able to win the fight.

In the first round despite not being able to eliminate Shieldbearer, I managed to do good damage, leaving the opponent's two front cards with few Health points. While my Diemonshark tank was still strong enough due to the opponent having two cards with Snipe attack that don´t attacked my tank.

Starting the second round, the highlight goes to Naga Windmaster that with its minimum attack is enough to eliminate Shieldbearer and Blinding Reflector with the Blast effect, a great move that changes the combat to my side, because my Snipe and Opportunity attacks can attack according to their abilities and do more damage.
And so Deeplurker eliminates the opponent's most aggressive card Pelacor Arbalest increasing my chances of winning this battle.

Starting the third round the battle goes very well, my cards have a speed advantage despite the Time Mage Debuff but that can't survive much longer in the battle, and so my attacks manage to completely eliminate the opponent's formation without losing any more cards on my side.

With this battle I increased my rank by 21 points and gained 2.901 dec with a small decrease of 14% for having a started card in the formation. From tomorrow on is to avoid the decreases because it will affect the dec gained and above all the daily and season chests.

Regarding the battle I was lucky that the opponent chose some cards with Ranged attack, and so Naga Windmaster was crucial in the battle besides being the one to eliminate Shieldbearer.
I still have to complete my deck with several stronger cards to be more competitive in battles against strong opponents, but I think that Naga Windmaster can help me in several battles from now on and so I understand that it was a good acquisition to have bought.
