Today I will discuss how using the Amplify ability will give you the upper hand from your enemy. Sometimes we forget to use this ability because the unit that has this ability usually has a weak attack, especially in the low mana battle, and we choose another unit that has greater damage. A units/summoner that have Amplify ability :
This unit above is at max level for play in Diamond league, if your league is below Diamond the Amplify ability sometimes not show up yet. It has 16 units and 1 summoner (Grandmaster Rather), some unit can't attack.
Note:
I'd play using my scholar account bltzr-wizard-710, usually in Diamond League Modern format, sometimes in Champion league if I can reach it, my card is not powerful I only have Chaos Legion, Reward Card, and 11 old cards I rent like, Doctor Blight, Ash Mirage, Dumacke Exile, etc. This strategy may only work for enemies with limited cards.
Ruleset who has Compatibility With Amplify Ability
With the Amplify ability on the battlefield then all this ruleset will give greater damage of 1 to the enemy :
| Ruleset | Description |
|---|---|
 | Briar Patch, all units have Thorns ability (returns 2 damage to attacker when hit by a melee attack). |
 | Counterspell, all units have Magic Reflect ability (returns 50% of magic damage to attacker, rounded up). |
 | Fire & Regret, all units have Return Fire ability (returns 50% of ranged damage to attacker, rounded up). |
Battle Example
In this Battle Example 1
I'm bringing Venator Kinjo to Amplify the damage from the units with Thorns ability Mycelic Morphoid and Dumacke Orc. This Strategy successfully kills Katrelba Gobson who has Bloodlust ability (every time this unit kills the enemy, all stat will increase by 1, before he has a chance to kill our unit. By default, The Thorns ability will give only 2 damage but in this battle you can see when Katrelba Gobson Hit Mycelic Morphoid it give 3 damage to Gobson, because of the Amplify ability from Venator Kinjo. Our Dumacke Orc when hit the enemy Dumacke Orc only got 1 damage from Thorns ability because it have Shield ability who reduce melee damage by half (Thorns is melee damage).
This is other Battle example 2
In this Battle only Runemancer Kye the enemy unit that got damaged from the Counterspell ruleset, the other enemy magic unit Water Caller Immune from damage because it has Reflection Shield ability. It have 3 magic damage Counterspell should only give 2 damage, but instead it give 3 because of the Amplify ability from our. This battle I win not because of the Amplify ability, but I just want to show how Amplify increase damage from Counterspell.
Rather risky to use Amplify in this ruleset cause the enemy may not use magic unit due to counterspell.
Conclusion
- From Battle Example 1 we know best to use Amplify in the Briar Patch and Up Close & Personal ruleset (Only unit with melee attack may be used in battles) :
With this ruleset we can make sure that the enemy will only use melee unit, and we can use unit with Amplify ability to increase the Thorns damage. In the Melee battle I only have Venator Kinjo who have Amplify ability, this unit only have 1 attack and 2 speed :
We don't have high mana unit like Sea Wreck who is good as a tanker and have 4 attack, so I think this unit only good up to 30 mana battle. Above that I think better to fill the position with high damage unit. - Same like Briar Patch, Counterspell ruleset it's better when combined with Wands Out ruleset (you can only summon units with magic attacks):
For Amplify unit, you can use River Nymph, Queen Mycelia, summoner Grandmaster Rathe, etc.
- and Fire & Regret with Going the Distance ruleset (you can only summon units with ranged attacks.) :
For Amplify unit, you can use Weirding Warriors, Rush townsend (I don't have this unit), Endura Brune (I don't have this unit), etc. - If you have Briar Patch, Counterspell, or Fire & Regret ruleset and you want to use other units who don't have Amplify ability, you can use the summoner Grandmaster Rathe to give Amplify ability.
