My Epic Reward Cards Dilemma
Here I am thinking that just one card left and I'll get my first ever maxed reward card - Shock Trooper. I am even so happy getting that one copy in an Epic Draw.
But Alas! I was so wrong. So what I did I bought one in the market thinking that all I need is one more. Being so stupid, I wasn't missing one. I was missing two. I need 15 BCX (including the level 5 I have). I only got 14.
With a tight budget, I can't buy another one. Or else I have to explain to wife jury. That left me with no other choice but to keep on grinding until I get that one BCX of Shock Trooper. It didn't come. Instead I got more BCX of some of my level 5 cards making them miss 1 BCX of each too. Yup, this is my dilemma. I got more level 5 cards with only few BCXes left to get it to maxed.
Should I Wait Or Buy?
A silly question I know. But I am being honest here. I am a bit impatient but don't want to spend some dollars thinking I would get some eventually at the end of season. All of my Epic cards are at Level 5 except Olivia Of The Brook **paging Olivia I need more copies of you***
What Does Maxed Epic Cards Look Like?
You might be thinking, what's the deal bro. Maxed Epic cards aren't that strong anyways. Well, you're wrong. Take a look at these beauties and understand my dilemma.
 | Kha'zi Conjurer | Kha'zi Conjurer at maxed level got 6 Ranged Attack, 5 Speed and 5 Health. All of those stats for just 2 Mana. Who would not want this card? On top of those stats, it has Piercing ability. Rendering enemy Armor soft as cake. |
 | Shock Trooper | At level 6, Shock Trooper will get additional ability called Magic Reflect. This changes how Shock Trooper will be used from now on. It can be used as a Tank now to reflect magic damage. You can't imagine how rare magic reflect users are in Water splinter. With that 5 Magic Attack for just 4 Mana, it will be a powerhouse. |
 | Thanalorian Blade | Forget about Execute and Lookout. Trample is what will make this card truly epic. Paired with Opportunity, it can obliterate the whole enemy team. At level 6, it will not just get Trample, it will have 4 Melee Attack, 3 Speed, 1 Armor and 6 Health. The most highly anticipated epic card out there for sure. |
 | Halfling Refugee | Out of all the epic cards, this is the card I am not excited maxing out. Yes it will gain +1 additional Melee Attack but come on, really? It is better at 4 Melee to avoid being mitigated by Forcefield. But yeah, anyways, it is still good to have. |
 | Arachne Weaver | At level 6, Arachne Weaver will get a Poison ability. This is a welcome ability. Aside from healing all damaged allies albeit the cost of -1 max health, chances are it can also poison the enemy. Attack-wise not that devastating but as a support card, it's the best one. |
 | Night Reaper | Last Stand at maxed level, are you kidding me? It feels like Undying Kron got resurrected for Rebellion. This is the card I am close to maxing up with Shock Trooper. So I am definitely using this card once it get maxed. |
 | Olivia Of The Brook | Reflection Shield may not be the ability for everybody. But I welcome it. Immunity to Magic Reflect - check. Immunity to Thorns - check. Immunity to Blasts - check. This will have all the checks checked. |
Closing
At this point, I do hope you understand my dilemma. Maxed Epic cards are amazing. This will definitely bring me to higher heights. As for how I am gonna max it up. I still don't know. But I'm getting there. Thank you for reading my post and I hope you also learn something in the process.
