Round 1
The summoner buffs was applied to the various cards and the battle started with my opponent attacking my first card first and killing my second card because of the blast.
The death of my second card increased my first and third card in stats and then my first card attacked removing the shields of both the first and second cards of my opponent. My opponent's third card killed my first card allowing my second card (Unicorn Mustang) the chance to finally attack.
Round 2
My Unicorn Mustang finally attacked and did huge damage but it was not enough to kill my opponent's first card. It only caused me more damage by giving my opponent's increased attacks.
My opponent's first card with its renewed attacks attacked my first card and killed it. The blast also killed my last card.
This is how fast and quick my battle ended.
I lost this battle after 2 rounds.
