WHO IS SALTWATER MAGE - a hidden gem

SALTWATER MAGE is a epic water frontier that is part of the foundation card . It is a 8 mana magic monster. At level 3 it has 2 magic attack, 7 health and 2 speed although it is a black foil that is always at maxed level as now the frontier mode is unlocked up to silver level. It has also a sneak ability (targets the enemy unit in the last position) which is a unique to some magic monster as sneak are mostly dominated by melee monster. Saltwater mage is not yet owned by many players as it is only acquired through playing the frontier mode. Saltwater is a hidden gem as it allows to attack 3 magic attack as water archon provide plus 1 magic attack to all frienfly unit. In the battlefield saltwater mage dominates as it usually kill the opponent in mostly 1 hit often tie 2 health against those with higher health or weak magic ruleset.

This is the number 1 mint black foil water mage, i am not lucky to have in the draw but the lucky guy share his luck to me by allowing me to buy it to him. This also makes this black foil saltwater mage mint number one a card to be sought by card collectors one day.

SALTWATER MAGE INTO THE BATTLEFIELD

This battle is a 45 mana battle with maneuvers and born again ruleset against a strong opponent Hive account@hellslash (a once gold league top leaderboard) . But the story in this challenge is how saltwater mage illuminates opponent most with one hit. Although it illuminate them with one hit it need a second hit for those with higher health. This battle is also a water against water that means it is the battle og magics. My opponent implore a taunt strategy but i go for a decisive full offensive attack .
