Single Card Introduction
7-Cost Master Yi
The 7-cost Master Yi is a high-cost hero unit with extreme tactical flexibility, primarily used as a game finisher in the mid-to-late game. Ready on Play: Unlike regular high-cost units that have a waiting period upon entering play, the 7-cost Master Yi can act immediately after being played. Wanderer: This unique mechanic allows him to move freely between different battlefields.
Deathblossom Stalker
Deathblossom Stalker is an 8-cost epic unit with high stats. With its unique entry mechanism and powerful self-protection ability, it mainly serves as a mid-to-late game breakthrough unit and position holder in the deck. Its Spell Shield effect means that if the opponent wants to target it with any spell or card effect, they must play an additional Rune as a cost. This significantly increases the threshold for the opponent to remove the card. Additionally, the card effect allows the player to directly "play it onto a battlefield already occupied by the enemy." It can directly drop into enemy territory, making it a very strong single card. When combined with Master Yi's effect, its combat power reaches 10 attack when defending.
Whiteflame Guard Dragon
Whiteflame Guard Dragon is an 8-cost unit card, primarily serving as a heavy hitter for offense in the deck. Combined with early two-cost small minions, it can deal 10 points of high combat power, plus its own 8 combat power. In the next turn, with Deathblossom Stalker, two high combat power minions [occupying] the opponent's board will exert significant pressure.
