Dax Paragon - The Man in the Expensive Castle

As the lore would tell us, Dax Paragon is rich and cunning and has destroyed many of his enemies. What makes Dax so special you might ask?

He is a low cost magic monster which from level 2, gains the amplify ability that increases reflective attacks by 1, but at level 5 also has the affliction ability that can stop enemy monsters from healing.

My own Dax Paragon is just a level 1 and I need to urgently upgrade him.

He has a very low 2 mana cost that helps to bolster your magic attack when needed. If you have him upgraded to level 5, this is a much cheaper cost compared to Doctor Blight and can have a big impact on the battle.

ROUND 1 - Iziar vs. Time Mage

The spearhead of my attack is with Iziar the new reward card monster who has a great amount of health plus critically the void ability that gives a reduced magic attack. My focus will be to use Iziar to hold on for as long as possible while the rest of my magic attack picks off my opponent.

ROUND 2

Round 3 & 4

In round 3, only Magi of Chaos and Djinn Renova are still standing for my opponent. It was a critical error when they placed their lower health monsters at the front. Iziar is still standing for me with 4 health and I have a full magic attack score of 10.

Dax Paragon with his low mana cost of 2 is a critical bolster to your magic attack, although he does not have much health. Placing him at the front of my attack could have lost him quite early on.

To have a bigger impact on the match, Dax would need to be upgraded to level 5 where the affliction ability could prove very lethal to opponents who are using the heal ability.
