Sorry, I don't play poker on luck

This round will be the most formal round of this regional stage.

Formal refers to the mechanism.

It is a pure 1V1 9+1 card game without any additional rules.

There are 4 representative teams with a total of 32 players.

In the form of elimination, the competition continues until the champion is determined.

At the same time, strictly speaking, this is also the last round of this year.

All previous results have been invalidated, and the champion team of this city competition will be the team with the highest total points in this round.

Players from the four representative teams all have the opportunity to earn points for their teams.

Those who advance from 32 to 16 will get 1 point.

Those who advance from 16 to 8 will get 2 points.

Those who advance from 8 to 4 will get 3 points.

Those who advance from 4 to 2 will get 4 points.

Those who advance from 2 to 1 will get 5 points.

Under such a competition system, teams with more players will naturally hope to get more points.

Among them, the balanced team has retained 10 members because it has won the most championships.

Followed by the Wisdom team with 9 people, the Furious team with 8 people, and the Tingfeng team with 5 people.

Theoretically, the Balance team has the highest chance of winning this year's championship.

What's more, they still have the undisputed number one player in the competition like Tokidachi.

It's just that when the draw results came out, it was not very friendly to the balanced representative team.

Among their 10 team members, 6 of them got a pair of catches.

Although it means that you can definitely get 3 points, it also reduces the chance of getting high scores.

It is equivalent to stabilizing the lower limit and losing the upper limit.

And the worst thing is that the first and second place of the balanced team, Tokidachi and Xiaomaishito, are divided into half zones.

Not only the two of them, Ruixue and Fengnian, the first and second place players of the Wisdom representative team, are also in this half area.

In other words, the champion has not yet been decided, and several popular players will have to fight first.

The popular players here mainly refer to Shi Li and Ruixue.

There are no absolutes on the poker table, and even Shi Li dare not say that he will definitely be able to beat Ruixue.

If he were to estimate it, the winning rate would be around 70%.

At this point, everyone will no longer have any reservations, and they will definitely come up with any means to keep things under control.

Shili knew that this was especially true for him.

Just imagine that if an opponent encounters him, it is impossible not to give 100% of his strength and fight.

Therefore, when facing any opponent, he needs to be cautious until the last moment.

But in the first round, it doesn’t really matter.

Because he happened to be one of the players who was drawn to the Civil War.

For the sake of collective performance, the team unanimously agreed to send him out.

But it should not be too blatant. Shili and Xiangqi were warned and investigated when they faked the match.

Therefore, in this card game with teammates, both sides still had A-level decks with all the best, and the game was back and forth.

Although anyone with a discerning eye can see that his teammates are giving in, they can't say much.

As a result, in the second round, 16 advanced to 8, and Tokidachi met his teammates again.

No doubt he walked again.

The civil war between teammates was originally not good news, but being able to walk Shili was something the team was happy to see.

After all, this can preserve Shili's strength to the maximum extent without exposing it to the outside world, and it also reduces the chance of an accident that capsizes in the ditch.

It's not good for other representative teams.

They also wanted Shi Li to reveal his strength as soon as possible and be killed by others in an upset.

As for not losing points in terms of points, after two rounds, the Balanced Team and the Smart Team were tied, both with 9 points.

The biggest loser is currently the Tingfeng team, which has the lowest points.

And Tokidachi heard that the fifth player in their team actually owned an S-class card.

But he was eliminated before he could take it out in the first round.

It can be said that it is really a bit unfair. I hid it for a whole competition, but was eliminated without being able to take it out and pretend to be a wave.

At the same time, this also serves as a wake-up call to other players. Don’t hold back and don’t underestimate any opponent who can make it this far.

In the third round, when 8 went into 4, Tokidachi finally met his opponent.

That is the first place on the wise representative team, Ruixue.

"We can finally meet at the official poker table, but it's a pity that it's not the final stage."

Standing across the card table, Ruixue was both excited and regretful.

In fact, she and Tokidachi had a bit of a feud.

Shili would never know about this.

The bottle of S-level [Talent Potion] that he used to awaken the [S-level expert] actually came from the Rui family.

Ruixue's wife is the person in charge of the trading system, Old Man Lu.

That bottle of S-level [Talent Potion] was originally a gift for Ruixue.

As a result, since there is currently no inventory in the player pool, Mr. Lu can only pay Shili to make up for it out of his own pocket, and he has not yet received compensation.

Otherwise, it would have been Ruixue, not Toki Li, who had the talent of two players today.

"Come on, lay out the cards."

He immediately made a gesture of invitation.

This opponent is worthy of dealing with with all his strength.

The so-called going all out does not mean playing the strongest deck.

Because his strongest deck, the Kung Fu deck, has long been completely exposed.

Even the strongest deck will not achieve the strongest effect if the opponent is prepared.

Therefore, what I want to play immediately is a mix of old and new.

The A-level combination of [Liu Xuande] + [Guan Yunchang] appears.

Take another [Pseudo Saint] outside.

Sister Hunchback: [Wow, I didn’t expect No. 1 Wang Defa to be so proactive in his debut this time.

It was very different from the monkey-bear-monk combination he was used to before.

Only S-level monkeys are retained. 】

Director Feng: [This combination is very powerful.

[Liu Xuande] can attack and defend. If the opponent's first row of cards threatens too much, just bind them directly.

Otherwise, bind [Guan Yunchang] to protect it.

The first row card [Defense] has a high probability, and [Guan Yunchang] can also play well. 】

Sister Hunchback: [I didn’t expect him to hide such a card. 】

[Pseudo Saint] has appeared before, so everyone is already familiar with it.

Instead, it was two Shu General cards that caught everyone's attention.

Although it is an A-level card, its strength is absolutely first-class.

As for Ruixue, she also unveiled a new card.

And it’s only 1 card.

Sister Hunchback: [Wow, oh, oh, oh! As expected, contestant Ruixue also hid her tricks!

She actually revealed an S-class card that had not been shown before in the first row of cards! 】

Ruixue's S-level first row card is a balanced damage-bearing card.

Its projection is a huge golden shield, standing on the card table like a solid city wall.

【Heavenly Shield Gate】

Firm, 50 points, S

Attack 50, 400/400

[Large volume - Passive]: The Heavenly Shield Gate occupies 1 row and 3 grids of tablets, with health +300

[Batianmen-Passive]: Tianshimenmen has the effect of [Batianmen]

[Plating Sky Gate-Passive]: The Sky Shield Gate has the [Coating] effect

[Jiantianmen-Passive]: Tianshimen has 10 points of damage reduction

[Gutianmen-Passive]: The single attack received by Tianshimen does not exceed 30 points.

Sister Hunchback: [This card has the entry that all injury-bearing cards dream of!

High blood volume, damage reduction, damage limitation, magic immunity and animal immunity!

Then it also has 50 attack points and can also perform attacks! 】

Director Feng: [It is indeed a rare damage-bearing card. Generally, a three-block monster only has 300 health.

This card has 400 health.

Coupled with decent points and attack power.

Even if it is used as an ace, it is very powerful.

But it’s just...]

Sister Hunchback: [If it meets [Liu Xuande], it will be equivalent to exploding on the spot. 】

Director Feng: [That’s right. 】

Because of their positions, the two commentators could hardly hold back their laughter at this time.

S-level cards are not absolutely invincible. There has never been a saying that an S-level card will definitely defeat an A-level card.

When [Tian Shield Sect] meets [Liu Xuande], there is basically no room for improvement.

For Tokidachi, this is simply fat meat put in his mouth.

There is nothing much to say about the scene cards. As soon as [Martial Arts] came out, everyone was on the same starting line.

He directly asked [Liu Xuande] to bind the [Heavenly Shield Gate], and then carried out output unscrupulously.

Even though the 50 attack points for one card on your opponent's side is scary, it's actually only 50 attack points.

On his side, the output is more than twice that of the opponent.

And he won't encounter [Defense] and damage reduction, because he can just kill [Liu Xuande] directly.

[Pseudo Saint] beat [Liu Xuande] for 40 points of damage.

[Guan Yunchang] slashed [Liu Xuande], causing 50 points of damage.

[Liu Xuande] asked [Guan Yunchang] to chop [Liu Xuande], causing 50 points of damage.

After this wave is defeated, [Heavenly Shield Sect] + [Liu Xuande] becomes 360/500.

Sister Hunchback: [50 points of damage vs. 140 points of damage, 90 points of output difference...

[Heavenly Shield Gate] is born with 100 points more HP than the opponent, and is about to be chased back! 】

Director Feng: [This is just one of them, there is actually another very important point.

That is the role played by the [Pseudo-Saint].

It can be seen that player Ruixue has already locked the trump card and a regular cover card.

Her tactical system will be revealed. 】

Many people believe that the main value of [Pseudo Saint] lies in the derivation of [Stone Monkey] and the transposition [disguise] of [Stone Monkey].

In fact, veteran players like Director Feng don’t see it that way. They believe that Cube Game is actually an information war.

Obtaining the other party's information first will be a huge advantage.

Ruixue's trump card has been found in the right column on her side.

But in the next few rounds, Tokidachi's style of play was very puzzling.

He did not attack the opponent's ace column. Instead, he concentrated his firepower on the left column.

Regarding this style of play, most people present believed that it was just an excessive pursuit of stability.

With the huge advantage formed by [Liu Xuande]'s giant defeat of [Tianshield Gate], he still wanted to clear all the opponent's regular cards before playing trump cards.

This is a way of playing for stability.

On such a stage where there is no room for error, there is nothing wrong with adopting such tactics.

However, when the card game reached the middle and late stages, everyone understood Shi Li's purpose of doing this.

In fact, it is not about stability, but about winning.

Knowing that the other person is the reincarnation of a god, it is impossible to leave his or her natal cards alone.

He has played many cards with the gods and knows that the natal cards must be guarded against.

Sure enough, when she reached the end of Ruixue's left column, she revealed her birth card.

【Ruixue's Brand】

Wither, 40 points, S

Attack 40, 100/100, 10/10

[Void-Passive]: The Card of Ruixue is not affected by any damage/negative effects

[Discipline - Passive]: Ruixue's card can only be placed in the Ace row, but it cannot become the Ace card.

[Snow Trait - Passive]: When the Snow Card is folded, energy can be restored and the efficiency is doubled.

[Power of Ruixue - 2 points of energy]: Ruixue's cards are revealed to all enemies in the field, causing 20 points of damage.

[Ruixue Domain - 4 points of energy]: The Ruixue card makes certain types of cards in the field unable to recover energy this round, and only takes effect on one type of cards at a time.

As expected, Ruixue's natal card has reached the S-level complete version.

But what she didn't expect was that her natal card was actually a new type of card.

In other words, this Ruixue's predecessor was a right-hearted god.

This is the first time Shili has seen the full-screen AOE capability.

The energy of 10/10 is enough to wash all the opponent's cards with 100 blood points.

If you don't want to be beaten so painfully, you can only [defend].

However, the overall [defense] is no different from sending the opponent to a pointless attack.

The ideal situation to fight this card is not to reveal it.

Because its AOE only takes effect on the unveiling.

But this is not realistic.

In addition, [Ruixue's Card] has another very special mechanism.

Its effect is almost the scene card effect.

It can isolate the energy recovery of certain types of cards on the field, regardless of whether it is friend or foe.

For example, if you isolate potential-breaking cards, their attacks cannot return energy, nor can they accept other cards to charge them in other ways.

It is absolutely effective to restrain cards like [Kung Fu Goat God] that require constant charging.

But unfortunately, Tokidachi did not get the [Kung Fu Goat God] in this round.

And just because he was worried about the opponent's unknown natal card, he deliberately left a regular card undisclosed after gaining a huge advantage.

Now that it has been determined, it is natural to choose to reveal it.

If we want to talk about the nemesis of the god's natal card, it is naturally the [Five-clawed Golden Dragon].

Speaking of [Five-clawed Golden Dragon], it really beats [Card of Ruixue].

It has a total of 5 systems: breaking/firm/chasing/listening/wisdom. Even if one of them is isolated, it will not have any impact.

Then hard control can also ignore the immunity effect, that is, it can directly damage the natal card.

With such card advantages and card restraint advantages, Toki Li is unstoppable all the way.

In the end, he forced Ruixue to surrender.

"I lost. I am worthy of the man who just unified the buffer zone."

Ruixue said she was convinced.

"Ah? What did you say?"

Shi Li said he didn't understand.

“Haha, there’s no need to hide it.

I think this city competition stage can no longer accommodate you. "

Ruixue smiled bitterly and left.

After defeating Ruixue, Shili officially entered the top four.

His opponent in the top four was the No. 2 seed of the wise team, Fengnian, who had just defeated Xiaojiren.

This guy had already shown his [Wind Catfish Card] last time, and this time he was no match for Tokidachi either.

So Tokidachi defeated the opponent without spending much time.

In fact, the moment he successfully entered the finals, the points of the balanced team were already confirmed as the champion of this city competition.

Because his biggest competitor, the No. 1 and No. 2 player from the Wisdom Representative Team, had been killed by him personally.

In this way, the entire balanced region can feel proud.

Because many people still remember the last session, when the Balanced Team was brutally beaten by the Wisdom Team.

Then the next competitor, the Berserk Team, was completely wiped out before reaching the semi-finals.

Their No. 1 seed actually lost to the No. 3 seed of the Wise Representative Team.

The one in the opposite half who entered the finals was the Tingfeng team, which had no chance of making a comeback in terms of points.

Four of their five players were eliminated in the first round and did not get any points at all.

Only the No. 1 seed [What to See] made it all the way to the finals.

Yes, this is Tokidachi's final opponent.
