Pushpak

Dodges Physical and Ranged attacks

Recommended Position

Third to Fifth (Second Last)

Why?

If placed at First position :

It has low Stamina and will retire after just one attack

If placed at Last position :

It will need protection from cards with Ghatak ability that attack the card at Last position

Top Abilities and Cards to Counter

AstrKavach :
When attacked, Astr hits the Shield before Stamina

Cards with AstrKavach:

Level 1 onwards : Ghatotkach, Senani, Kundbhedi

Cards with AstrKavach ability protect their Stamina by absorbing the Astr attack on their Shield. Due to this, Shwetaki’s attack will not affect their Stamina easily.

Chapal :
Can dodge Astr attacks

Cards with Chapal:

Level 1 onwards : Jambavant, Ghatotkach
Level 3 onwards : Shishupal
Level 3 onwards : Vakr
Level 5 onwords : Vriddhakshatr

Cards with Chapal ability can dodge Astr attacks. Shwetaki’s attack on such cards has a high chance of getting missed.

AstrBhransh :
Reduces damage from Astr attacks

Cards with AstrBhransh :

Level 1 onwards : Nakul, Shwetketu, Shishupal
Level 5 onwards : Bahlik

Shwetaki at Level 1 does an Astr attack of 1. So if it attacks cards with AstrBhransh ability, its damage will get reduced to 0.

Achuk :
Never misses its target; hits 100%

Cards with Achuk :

Level 1 onwards : Dandadhar, Drishtaketu
Level 2 onwards : Bodh
Level 3 onwards : Pashi
Level 4 onwards : Chekitana

Cards enabled with Achuk ability hit the opponent card 100%. This means that Shwetaki’s Pushpak ability will not be effective in dodging Physical and Ranged attacks.

Mrugaya :
Targets First Astr/Ranged attack card in positions 2 - 6

Cards with Mrugaya:

Level 1 onwards : Satyaki, Uttar, Sama, Pashi, Ugravadh

Cards with Mrugaya ability will target cards with Astr/Ranged attack that are not in First position. This means, if all cards before Shwetaki are Physical or No attack cards, then Shwetaki will become an easy target of such cards.

PratiAstr :
Reflects Astr attack with reduced Astr attack (min. 1)

Cards with PratiAstr:

Level 1 onwards : Ugrasen, Senani
Level 3 onwards : Vajradatt
Level 8 onwards : Satyasandh

Cards with PratiAstr ability hit back at Astr attack cards with reduced Astr. This means, if attacked by Shwetaki (at Level 1) with an Astr attack of 1, these cards will be able to return an equal damage of 1 every time the hit is successful.

Story of Shwetaki

King Shwetaki was an illustrious and pious King. He wanted to perform a Yagna - the likes of which was never done before. But all the Rishis refused to help him perform this sacrifice. Then, on the advice of Bhagwan Shiv the King approached Rishi Durvasa for help. The Yagna went on for 12 years where a continuous stream of Ghee was poured into the fire. This excess consumption of Ghee made Agni Dev lazy. Agni Dev regained his strength after he consumed the entire Khandavprasth forest.
