Since Xie Mingzhe had a headache because of the hair drawing on Nie Xiaoqian's card, he decided to stop making cards and take a day off.
According to the schedule, my roommate Qin Xuan has taken three days off and should be back on Wednesday.
However, until Wednesday night, there was still no sign of Qin Xuan. Xie Mingzhe sent a message to ask about it, but there was no response. He didn't know what happened in his roommate's home.
Xie Mingzhe suppressed his confusion, logged into the game, and continued to make cards in his personal space.
Adding two output cards, Nie Xiaoqian and Hei Wuchang, to the joker card pool is far from enough. Just make a few more so that Xiao Ke will have more choices when matching the deck in the future.
Since I am the Black and White Impermanence, how can I be without the Ox-Head and Horse-Face and Meng Po?
According to legend, after a person dies, the first people they see are the two ghost messengers "Black and White Impermanence". Black and White Impermanence come to the human world and are responsible for taking away souls and spirits. They lead the ghosts of the dead to the ghost world and then hand them over to the Ox-Head and Horse-Face.
The Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Ghosts escorted the new ghost through the Yellow Springs Road. On both sides of the Yellow Springs Road, there were blood-red flowers of the other shore. After passing the Yellow Springs Road, there was a river called Wangchuan River, and on the river there was a Naihe Bridge. After crossing the Naihe Bridge, they would see an old woman named Mengpo, who handed over a bowl of Mengpo Soup. Drinking it would make them forget their past lives and enter reincarnation.
This process has been passed down among the people for thousands of years. The civil servants in the ghost world have their own duties and clear responsibilities, just like in the human world.
The images of the two ghost officers, Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced, are quite easy to define. The former has a head like an ox and a human body, holding a fork, and looks extremely ferocious; the latter has a horse face and also holds a weapon in his hand. These two ghost officers are responsible for escorting ghosts through the underworld, and will quickly catch any ghosts that escape.
In the Star Card Game, if there is no special setting for the joker card, it will be automatically classified as earth.
Because, Gui Sirui, as the founder of the Joker card pool, gave a sufficient reason when he was making the Joker card pool: "The ghost world is underground, without light all year round, and is accompanied by mud, so it should be classified as an earth system." This is just like most plants are classified as wood systems, and most marine life is classified as water systems. It is a "group characteristic."
But if the joker holds a metal weapon in his hand, he will be forced to belong to the gold system.
In the original setting, the Bull Head held a fork and the Horse Face held a broadsword, both of which were metal weapons. However, since most of the Joker cards would be classified as Earth cards, Xie Mingzhe had to change the metal elements in the weapons, retaining the appearance of the weapons, and classifying them as Earth cards, so that they can be combined with other Joker cards to form Earth decks.
Hei Wuchang and Nie Xiaoqian both attack alone, so Xie Mingzhe thought that it would be better to use Niu Tou and Ma Mian as a group attack to suppress the opponent's health in the early stage. After the group's health is suppressed, Nie Xiaoqian and Hei Wuchang will go out to chase or kill the cards with low health instantly.
Xie Mingzhe didn't remember much about the legend of the Ox-Head and Horse-Faced Demons, so he could only set it up based on the functions of the two ghost messengers.
The task of the two ghost messengers is to escort ghosts across the Yellow Springs Road, where red spider lilies are blooming everywhere. Xie Mingzhe decided to use these two materials as the skill descriptions of the Ox-Head and Horse-Face.
With the injection of mental power, two cards were quickly generated on the nebula paper.
The images of a human body with a bull's head and a human body with a horse's face look a bit funny, and they are a far cry from Nie Xiaoqian. But there is no way, it is set like this. Although Xie Mingzhe is a painter who is obsessed with looks, some of the jokers are really ugly, and they can't all be made into handsome men and beautiful women.
Anyway, from Yu Ke's aesthetic point of view, it might be "very cute"!
Xie Mingzhe picked up the two cards and read the descriptions carefully.
Bull Head (Earth)
Level: Level 1
Evolution Star Level:★
Use times: 1/1 time
Basic Attributes: HP 500, Attack 1200, Defense 500, Agility 20, Crit 30%
Additional Skills: Yellow Springs Road (The Bull Head creates a Yellow Springs Road full of evil spirits within a 23-meter range. The evil spirits bite the enemy targets within the range, causing them to receive 150% group earth damage; cooldown time 45 seconds)
Additional Skill: Evil Spirits Retreat (Linked Skill. When the Yellow Spring Road laid by the Bull Head is covered with red spider lilies spread by the Horse Face, it will cause group fear to the enemy targets within the Yellow Spring Road for 3 seconds. It must be released actively.)
Horse-faced (Earth)
Level: Level 1
Evolution Star Level:★
Use times: 1/1 time
Basic Attributes: HP 500, Attack 1200, Defense 500, Agility 20, Crit 30%
Additional Skill: Red Spider Lily Blooms (Ma Mian makes blood-red red spider lilies bloom within a 23-meter radius. The red spider lilies bloom for 5 seconds, causing continuous damage to enemy targets within the range, losing 4% HP per second; cooldown time 45 seconds)
Additional Skill: Evil Spirits Repel (Linked Skill, when the location where the red spider lilies spread by the Horse-Faced Guardian overlaps with the Yellow Spring Road spread by the Bull-Headed Guardian, the red spider lilies will grow wildly, and the continuous damage caused will increase by 3 seconds; must be released actively)
The card was produced, but was rejected by the system during the review stage.
The system asked Xie Mingzhe to draw models of "Yellow Spring Road" and "Red Spider Lily", because these two keywords were not retrieved in the database and the system did not know what they were.
Xie Mingzhe immediately drew a road to the underworld under the feet of the turned head, and drew a few blooming red flowers of the other shore around the horse face. This time it finally passed the review, and Xie Mingzhe breathed a sigh of relief.
The usage of the Ox Head and Horse Face cards is also very flexible.
Huangquan Road causes a large-scale one-time group attack, while Higanbana is a large-scale continuous group attack. When the ranges of the two skills overlap, the combined skill of Minotaur will cause "group fear" control; the combined skill of Horseface will increase the amount of blood loss - the original 20% group blood loss, increased by 3 seconds is 32% group blood loss. Higanbana's group damage is calculated by percentage, and it is also very useful against meat shields!
After the Minotaur and Horse-Faced Monsters have finished their group attack, the enemy's health can be reduced to about half. Then, Nie Xiaoqian and Black and White Impermanence can be sent in to easily kill a few low-health squishy monsters, allowing Black and White Impermanence to collect enough marks and quickly clear the field.
Xie Mingzhe designed this five-card earth deck. Group attack and group control are given to Niu Tou Ma Mian, single attack, single control and harvest are given to Nie Xiaoqian and Hei Wu Chang, and support and buff are the tasks of Bai Wu Chang. If a player with a strong sense controls this deck, he will definitely be able to make the opponent psychologically collapse.
But that's not enough.
Xie Mingzhe also wants to make a support card that will make his opponent want to kill him - Meng Po.
Meng Po is also a very important member in the ghost world. Her role is to feed all new ghosts a bowl of Meng Po soup, erase all the ghosts' memories of their previous lives, and then let the ghosts enter the reincarnation trial process of the ghost world.
Meng Po soup has the effect of amnesia and memory erasure, and Meng Po's skill settings can also be developed in this direction.
Xie Mingzhe suddenly had an idea - maybe Mengpo Soup could be made into a dual-sided skill! Erasing the memory of the enemy is naturally a negative effect. Erasing the memory of friendly forces would be a positive effect.
Thinking of this, Xie Mingzhe immediately conceived the image of Meng Po.
In his memory, Meng Po should be a kind-looking old woman, with a bent waist, hunched back and white hair; in her left hand she held a long wooden stick with a lantern hanging on it, and in her right hand she held a tattered porcelain bowl filled with Meng Po soup that could make people forget their memories.
This character card is more complicated, and Xie Mingzhe also used two cards to draw it, especially the setting of Meng Po Soup. "Invite people to drink soup" is Meng Po's skill. At that time, the soup in her hand must be force-fed to the enemy, so the drawing of the soup must also be extremely detailed.
After drawing the image, Xie Mingzhe connected to the card making system and began to design skills——
Meng Po (Earth)
Level: Level 1
Evolution Star Level:★
Use times: 1/1 time
Basic Attributes: HP 1500, Attack 200, Defense 1000, Agility 30, Critical Hit 5%
Additional Skills: Mengpo Soup·Bitterness (Mengpo forces the designated enemy target within 23 meters to drink the bitter soup she brewed. Since Mengpo Soup has the effect of forgetting, the enemy target who drinks Mengpo Soup will forget all of his own skills, his mission and teammates, and will be in a daze for 5 seconds; the cooldown time is 45 seconds)
Additional Skills: Mengpo Soup·Sweetness (Mengpo makes the designated friendly target within 23 meters drink the sweet soup she brewed herself. The forgetfulness effect makes teammates forget all the pain they have suffered. Teammates who drink Mengpo Soup will forget all the damage they have suffered within the next 5 seconds, and their health will be restored to the value before the injury; cooldown time 45 seconds)
When the opponent sees this card, will he want to just pounce and beat him up?
In fact, Meng Po's soup is said to have five flavors: sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, and salty. Unfortunately, in the Star Card game, a card can only have three skills, plus four combined skills. The more skills a card has, the worse its basic data will be. Meng Po is a control card. She gives sweet soup to teammates and bitter soup to enemies. That's enough.
The enemy target drinks the soup and forgets his own skills. This can be used against some particularly powerful enemy cards, invalidating the opponent's skills, which can be very effective at critical moments.
If a friendly target drinks Meng Po soup, he will forget the damage he will suffer in the next 5 seconds, which is equivalent to a powerful single-target health recovery skill, especially when Meng Po is hidden in the dark card. For example, if the opponent's firepower is too strong and they want to kill Hei Wuchang or Nie Xiaoqian, Meng Po comes out, feeds her teammates a bowl of soup, and forgets all the damage that followed. The opponent's skills used are equivalent to being in vain.
Plus Bai Wuchang's "I can still save it, give me 5 seconds to settle"...
These joker cards can never be defeated no matter how you play them, and the opponent may be angry to death first.
Xie Mingzhe happily called Yu Ke to his space and showed him the newly made Ox Head, Horse Face and Meng Po.
Yu Ke's eyes lit up, and he wanted to kneel down while holding the three cards - the joker cards made by Uncle Fatty were exactly to his taste!
The group attacks of Ox-Head and Horse-Face, the individual bursts of Nie Xiaoqian and Black Impermanence, the assist of White Impermanence, and Meng Po has taken laziness to the extreme - she can even forget her skills. If the opponent is forced to drink Meng Po soup, he will definitely want to beat them up!
He was a fan of Gui Sirui because he was the only one in the league who could make joker cards, and other great players didn't like this style.
Joker is a very niche genre. Compared to the popular plant, animal, weapon and other decks, there are only a handful of players who use Joker decks in the game. Sometimes you may not encounter a single player even after playing in the arena for a whole day.
But Yu Ke always felt that joker cards could also be very powerful.
Unfortunately, the joker cards made by Gui Sirui were scary enough, but the playing method was rather stable and not exciting at all. Now, Xie Mingzhe customized the cards for him, and each one was more exciting than the last!
Yu Ke couldn't help but say, "Azhe, I want to replace all the joker cards of Master Gui Sirui in my hand with the ones you made. I really like every one of these cards you made!"
Xie Mingzhe smiled and said, "In fact, the joker cards made by Gui Sirui are also very strong, but their skills are not enough..." He thought about it for a while and finally decided on a suitable description: "Not irritating enough."
Yu Ke nodded like crazy: "Yes, yes, yes, the joker cards he made are very violent, but the joker cards you made are more infuriating than the last, hahahaha, Meng Po Tang's forgetfulness, Nie Xiaoqian's phantom splitting, and Black and White Impermanence's mark explosion, every skill makes people want to hit you!"
Xie Mingzhe smiled happily - if these cards were brought to the competition, the Nirvana Club might face being besieged by the entire alliance in the future. He didn't even need to appear in person, the logo of the card maker "Yueban" alone could attract the hatred of all the masters in the field.
Well, I’m looking forward to it!
