Let you print cards, not let you kill gods.

Chapter 389 The trend of hand traps goes global (5K)

The next day's game didn't bring many surprises to Shen Sui.

Although the remaining two players in the same group were also good seventh-level life card masters, they could not take advantage of Shen Sui at all. Even if Shen Sui got stuck for a time, they could not defeat Shen Sui.

Since then, Shen Sui has won three out of three games and entered the knockout rounds as the group leader.

The real surprise was Wang Hongjing.

This kid didn't know whether it was because he was beaten to pieces by Shen Sui or because of bad luck. In today's game, he almost lost to one of the life card masters who had never defeated him before, although he barely won in the end. , but still entered a 1-1 life and death situation.

If he loses this duel, it means that he will bid farewell to the stage of the Huashan Invitational Tournament.

Shen Sui ended his game and happily squatted in the lounge to watch the excitement.

"His face is so ugly." Aragaki Tanchun, as Shen Sui's coach, also sneaked into the venue.

Because of the attack from the Advent Society, she didn't dare to let Shen Sui act alone all the time.At least if she was by Shen Sui's side, Isabella could still protect Shen Sui if she really encountered an attack from a mysterious force.

"It looks like it's a red temperature." Shen Sui said with great experience, "Judging from my many years of experience watching games, red temperature before a game often doesn't end well."

Shen Sui's words became a prophecy.

Although Wang Hongjing took the lead, when he looked at his initial hand, his face became even more ugly.

"Are you stuck? Player Wang Hongjing ended the initiative round after covering two cards!" the commentator also said in disbelief.

Stuck hands are a permanent pain for life card masters, especially in life card duels, most of the life cards are forced to be limited to one, and hand jamming is unavoidable in many cases.

This is also the reason why many people love and hate You Wenqi.

Does he have what it takes to become a world champion?There is no doubt that he does. Being able to stand on top of the world without using soul cards is enough to prove his strength.

But this guy always gets stuck every time he reaches the finals, as if he was cursed.

Losing with a card player can be said to be the most unacceptable way of defeat for many fate card masters and their fans.

After folding the cards in the first attack round, Wang Hongjing's deck is almost halfway done.

The first-hand suppression is gone, and the opponent can expand as he pleases.

"Don't look at it, it's meaningless." Shen Sui also gave a verdict of failure.

Other fate card masters might also be able to hope that he can change their fate with magic.

But for a formula person like Wang Hongjing, it is basically impossible. He knows a certain way when playing cards. Just wait for your opponent to send you away as soon as your hand is stuck.

If this guy's formula wasn't really strong, he would have been beaten to the point where he wouldn't even recognize him. Now he's just showing his true colors.

During garbage time, Aragaki Tanchun was bored, so he chatted with Shen Sui about extraordinary powers.

Although she is uninformed, she is neither stupid nor blind.

The bald head in Advent Club was so obviously abnormal, she could see it at a glance.

"If this phenomenon becomes common, then the world will probably change drastically." Aragaki Tanchun said with a sigh, his words full of worries about the future.

"No matter how big the change is, it won't affect us." Shen Sui said casually.

Niiguan Tanchun rolled his eyes at Shen Sui angrily: "That's true, after all, our Lord Suishen is famous for being a soft-boiler of women."

"???" Shen Sui glanced at Araguan Tanchun in surprise, "Who the hell is ruining my reputation?"

Aragaki Tanchun chuckled: "Who made your deck evolve so quickly? In addition, the two soul cards that appeared later are either the Queen of the Dragon Clan or the Queen of the Elves. Everyone will doubt whether you are No. [-] The world can only make rapid progress if it is fed by women. After all, this matter is not without precedent."

"Can't I be the one who is invincible in the world and save Alice to gain countless forms and life cards?" Shen Sui doesn't want to bear the reputation of this soft-hearted man. If it is true, forget it. I will hug the rich woman and eat soft rice. I'm also happy, but damn, this isn't true.

"Ah, yes, yes, yes, yes." Aragaki Tanchun nodded repeatedly.

Shen Sui suddenly had the urge to demonstrate to Aragaki Tanchun on the spot.

At this time, the game on the field was over.

As expected, Wang Hongjing lost, with a total record of 1-2, and announced his farewell to this competition.

Before the game, no one thought that Wang Hongjing would be sent away in the first round.

This moment caused a heated discussion on the Internet. After all, before this, Wang Hongjing was also a top player in the domestic B-type competition. Although he has been slightly suppressed by Xu Tianzhi in the past six months, he is still the top player. One of the seventh level life card masters.

However, such a player was eliminated in the first round and could not even pass the bubble round.

The other player, Xu Tianzhi, who was beating him, also lost to the American player Sezer in the group stage. Although he won all the games and advanced to the second place in the group, he still lost to a foreign player in his hometown. Many netizens expressed dissatisfaction.

Many netizens do not analyze the specific situation or consider the restraint relationship of the deck. As long as you lose, you deserve to be criticized.

"After Yang Lijuan's promotion, will the championship of Category B of the Huashan Invitational Tournament be taken away by this kid from abroad?"

"Damn it! If only my Jibao was still here."

"Stop trying to summon the soul of your Jibao. She went to the A-level competition and was beaten to death."

"Upstairs, it is reasonable for a player who has just promoted to the eighth level to lose to the number one player in the world, right? Don't speak too harshly."

"Haha, if you lose, you lose. Don't make excuses. Are these the only fans of Yang Lijun?"

"It's so fucking ridiculous. I'm going to criticize you for it. When did I become a fan of Yang Lijuan? I'm a serious fan of Sui Shen, okay?"

"Haha, Cezer is the younger brother you said is number one in the world. If you lose when the year comes, I'd like to see how you wash the floor."

There was a lot of noise online, but in reality it had no impact at all.

Shen Sui relied on his status as a player to stay up until night, planning to watch the group stage of the Class A competition.

Compared with the scene of a few players in the B-type competitions killing everyone, the A-type competitions highlight the fight between dragons and tigers. Even in the group stage, it is a duel between masters, which is very exciting.

Tan Song and An Hai from China, Yuya Higashino from Japan, and Tiese Malfoy from the United States are all top players.

Bai Ye, who is quite popular among the people, also participated in this Huashan Invitational Tournament. Although she was promoted to an eighth-level life card master just like Yang Lijuan not long ago, her luck was pretty good, at least she did not encounter anyone in the qualifiers. What a powerful opponent.

But when it came to the group stage, her luck was not so good. In the same group, there were three ninth-level life card masters from all over the world, and they were taken away directly with 0-3 in three external games.

However, compared to Xu Tianzhi who was criticized wildly after losing a match with Sezer, Bai Ye's public opinion environment is slightly better. The main reason is that she really tried her best and worked hard to find her way to the last moment in every duel. Opportunities, and every duel was very exciting, but it just became a backdrop.

Of course, better is just better. Yang Lijun's fans just stared at her output, saying that if my family Qian Bao hadn't been taken away by the world's number one, and she really entered the group stage, she might have performed better.

Well-known players have become a fan circle. It can only be said that the bad things done by duel families are not just the competition environment itself.

So when the Exploration Bureau wanted to liquidate the Duel Family, Shen Sui absolutely supported it with both hands.

The duel that Shen Sui is most looking forward to today is actually the duel between An Hai and Tiais. As a newly promoted ninth-level life card master, An Hai's strength is recognized by Shen Sui. After all, thinking about You Wenqi and Tan Song, An Hai is a vague figure. The third player in the country seems to have survived the most rounds in his hands.

Ahem, although life card duels sometimes still rely on luck, at least your luck in these three duels is still very good, and in a real master duel, being able to defeat a strong enemy with luck also shows that your level is at least touching. Got to this line.

The organizer seemed to know what the audience wanted to see, and specially put An Hai's duel at the end.

The games started and ended one after another. Although Shen Sui had seen many games between level [-] life card masters, this was the first time he watched such a game live.

It has to be said that with the support of high-tech projection equipment, the live viewing experience of Fate Card Duel is even far better than the movie, and it is truly immersive. "In the next game, the player we will face is..." After a short break, the host came on stage again and announced the information of the next game, "Tan Song vs. Higashino Yuya."

Although the rough matchup list had been known for a long time, when the host revealed the matchup information, there was still a slight commotion in the audience.

This can be considered one of the most important matches today.

After Yu Wenqi announced his temporary farewell to the competition, Higashino Yuya has officially occupied the second place in the world, and even has the potential to hit the world's first place.

The China Invitational Tournament can be regarded as a battle between the two world's top fate card masters to compete for the world's number one spot.

In comparison, Tan Song's reputation is not that great. Although he still has a certain reputation in the country due to his victory in the Blue Dragon Cup, he is still a little bit weak against Yuya Higashino, the former world hegemon. of.

But the fate card master will never be afraid of the strong.

Everyone is a ninth-level life card master, and it’s not certain who will win and who will lose!

Higashino Yuya is a good-looking man, with his strange three-color hair style, and he looks like he is very good at playing cards.

He was not tall, even a head shorter than Tan Song, but when he stepped onto the duel field, his terrifying aura made everyone feel his strength.

He was a former world overlord, but he was also a protester who fell out with his country's Life Card Association.

Even Shen Sui has to admire Higashino Yuya.

Being able to return to the world stage and reach a high position again even though half of his deck was banned, this kind of power is no longer the power of his deck.

Shen Sui squinted his eyes, as if he saw a certain aura from Higashino Yuya.

Tan Song's expression was serious. This was an opponent that deserved to be taken seriously. He needed to go all out to have the possibility of winning.

"The duel begins!" Following the referee's order, both sides lit up their dueling instruments almost at the same time.

"My first strike!" Higashino Yuya took the first strike.

He is using a Swordsman deck, which belongs to the Japanese mythology branch of World No. [-], and belongs to the same soul card world as Tiese's Indian mythology deck.

Mythical World No. 33 can be said to be the soul card world with the most high-end combat power and the strongest top combat power among the [-] soul card worlds.

However, there are many fate card masters who choose World No. [-], but there are very few people who are really famous in World No. [-]. The gods in the sky are so high that they are easily out of reach.

After Higashino Yuya returned, apart from the fact that the soul cards remained unchanged, the entire deck underwent a major change, becoming a completely different dueling style.

He knew his deck well, there was almost no pause in the whole process, and the connection between cards was extremely smooth, as if he didn't need to think.

Under this kind of development, any opponent's timing is like a candlelight in the dark night, with nowhere to hide. No matter how fast you cancel the timing, you can't escape Higashino Yuya's eyes.

Sometimes?What card is it?

Higashino Yuya was confused.

Is it a follower card that activates effects from the hand?

Higashino Yuya has also encountered hand trap minion cards, but generally speaking, few fate card masters would choose to add them to their decks.

It's not because there are no hand pits, but because there are too few useful hand pits. The life card duel follower card is forced to be limited to one. If you add a hand pit, the probability of drawing it in the starting hand is too small. The subsequent draws are equal to Card hand, so few life card masters will add it.

Higashino Yuya quickly made a decision, he wanted to trick Tan Song out of his hand trap.

So he quickly adjusted his thinking, delayed the final call, and took the lead in using other powerful followers to deceive Tan Song.

Finally, when Higashino Yuya summoned a twelve-star swordsman ghost, Tan Song made a move.

"When you successfully summon a follower, activate the effect of [Xianzongfu·Alchemy Boy] in my hand, discard it from my hand and activate it, invalidating the effect of the follower you summoned and bouncing it back to the deck."

The effect of the alchemy boy is directed at the swordsman ghost.

Higashino Yuya grinned, looking like he had a plan: "Humph! You've been fooled!"

I saw Higashino Yuya pull out a card in his hand and declared: "Pay 8 soul points to activate the spell card [Swordsman's Pride] from my hand! Once per turn, I can choose one from the deck and graveyard. Exclude only the [Swordsman] follower, and special summon a [Swordsman] follower from my deck. If the excluded follower is the follower I summoned this round, my special summon ignores any summoning conditions this time!!!"

Higashino Yuya swung out the spell card in his hand like a sword.

The one he wanted to exclude was naturally the swordsman ghost who had just been bounced back into the deck by Tan Song's hand pit.

Then according to the effect of [Swordsman's Pride], he can special summon the [Swordsman] follower from the deck regardless of any conditions.

What he summoned was naturally his strongest swordsman!
and many more!

Higashino Yuya's heart trembled.

Is there any time?

"At this time." Tan Song laughed and took out another life card in his hand, "Activate the effect of [Qingyue Fairy Xu Xiazi] in my hand! When the opponent activates a special summoning effect, I can discard it from my hand to activate it, invalidating the summons."

Higashino Yuya grinned.

He didn't expect the two hand traps. Are the hand trap follower cards so easy to obtain now?

Moreover, Tan Song actually got two hand pits in his opening hand. He was really lucky.

To this, Higashino Yuya is also convinced.

He once thought about adding hand pits to his deck, but he couldn't find any hand pits that matched his deck, so he gave up the idea in the end.

Fortunately, although Higashino Yuya was interrupted in the most critical final call, he did not feel that he had lost. After all, he had encountered similar situations several times since the qualifiers. After covering two After playing cards, he ends his initiative turn.

Until this moment, Higashino Yuya has determined that stuffing hand pits into the deck has become a trend among Chinese life card masters. The Chinese life card masters he has met recently can always take out one or two hand pits. Come.

Some life card masters forced their hands into the deck. Although it caused some interference to Higashino Yuya for a time, after getting through the uncomfortable stage of being interrupted in the early stage, the opponent stuffed a large number of hands into the deck that did not match the main axis. The disadvantages of pits are revealed. At many critical moments, the cards drawn are hand pits that have no use at the current moment.

However, when the life card master adds a hand pit to the deck and wants to match his own spindle, it is completely different.

Just like Tan Song, the two minion cards he discarded at the beginning successfully interrupted Higashino Yuya's expansion. When Tan Song's turn came, they instantly became Tan Song's graveyard resources and could be reused.

"Did you find it?" Aragaki Tanchun looked at the culprit aside, "Since your debut, the usage rate of hand traps in China has obviously increased a lot."

Aragaki Tanchun's words are by no means flattering. In fact, Shen Sui's victory in the game has benefited many people. The hand pit is indeed the best way to start the opponent's first attack round. Through a hand pit, you can directly interrupt the opponent's attack. Expand, it is definitely profitable.

Therefore, this trend became popular in China's professional competitions.

However, because the number of hand-trapped follower cards with suitable effects is too rare, currently this method is still used by more players in high-end games.

"It's just due to circumstances." Shen Sui said truthfully.

The era of hand traps comes with the era of explosions. A card that interrupts the opponent's first attack and explosions is a hugely profitable thing.

But if the environment continues to develop and reaches a point where even five cards in hand are unable to prevent the opponent from exploding, then the era of hand pits will quickly pass, because by then, it will no longer make sense to add hand pits to the deck. It is better to leave the position to other cards, and then we will enter the era of confrontation between the two sides again.

However, in the fate card duel, this phenomenon may be different. Times can't just change.

The cards for the Life Card Duel were not printed out by some consortium at once, but were printed randomly in the Soul Card World. How could the environment change so quickly?
