Top Abilities and Cards to Counter
AstrKavach :
When attacked, Astr hits the Shield before Stamina
Cards with AstrKavach:
Level 1 onwards : Ghatotkach, Senani, Kundbhedi, Kavachi
Level 5 onwards : Kanka
Cards with AstrKavach ability protect their Stamina and absorb successful Astr attacks on their Shield. Due to this, Shrutayudh’s attack will hit their Shield and not affect the Stamina easily.
Mrugaya :
Targets First Astr/Ranged attack card in positions 2 - 6
Cards with Mrugaya:
Level 1 onwards : Satyaki, Uttar, Sama, Pashi, Ugravadh, Uluk
Level 3 onwards : Hans
Level 7 onwards : Vasati
Cards with Mrugaya ability will target cards with Astr/Ranged attack that are not in First position. If all cards before Shrutayudh are Physical/No attack cards, then Urnanabh will become an easy target for such cards.

Cards with PratiAstr:
Level 1 onwards : Ugrasen, Senani, Kavachi, Iravan
Level 3 onwards : Vajradatt, Prativindhya
Level 8 onwards : Satyasandh
Cards with PratiAstr ability hit back at Astr attack cards with reduced Astr. This means, if attacked by Shrutayudh (at Level 1) with an Astr attack of 2, these cards will be able to return damage of 1 every time the hit is successful.
