Elfines... for some of us they are the perfect combo of fierce female power but for some they are the major .
Their main strategy is to hit as many times as possible with a relativly ordinary attack base, thus their users tend to use cards to decrease the defence of the enemy or to increase their own damage output.
Now that is exactly where i want to interfere.
Let's assume the following situations:
VS 
Situation 1: Round 1, no cards played:
The possible outcome is:
- suffering a maximum of 4 damage (first and third attack are dealing a maximum of 9 damage minus 7 defense [note that Ergüji is also giving himself +1 defence] and the second attack is 5 so it won't cause damage) 2+0+2=4
- will suffer a maximum of 5 damage points
Situation 2: Round 1, and played by
Now the possible outcome is:
- suffering a max of 3 damage (Hawk gives +2 Defense)
- , now having only 5 def, suffers a maximum of 14 damage (first and third attack are dealing a maximum of 9 damage each, +2 from arrows, minus 5 defense equals 6; the second attack deals 5 damage, +2 from arrows, minus 5 defense equals 2) 6+2+6=14
In my point of view that is not logical, since the card text does read, "he has +2 to physical damage he suffers"
Now in fact that really means that IF he suffers physical damage he will suffer an additional +2 but only if!!!
So in fact the situation 2 should look like this:
- suffering a max of 3 damage (Hawk gives +2 Defense)
- , now having only 5 def, suffers a maximum of 12 damage (first and third attack are dealing a maximum of 9 damage each, +2 from arrows, minus 5 defense equals 6; the second attack deals 5 damage, minus 5 defense equals 0) 6+0+6=12
The same logic goes vice verca with additional damage dealt: Only once there is damage dealt, that damage should be increased.
Of course in a fight against chars who have no or very low defense it will not make any difference because whenever the elfine hits, the additional effects will trigger, but some other decks are having major problems with this logic.
If I use Abara, Noz-Mage, or whathaveyou with high defense you will always see an elfine with a base damage of 5/9 dealing an impressive 7 damage with a single attack against someone having a defense of lets say 14.
That ultimately results in a the following questions: Are the elfines a race dominated by illogical cards? or are theirs texts just framed very poorly?
What are you thoughts about that?
