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 and absorb successful Astr attacks on their Shield. Due to this, Alayudh’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
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 Jamvak are Physical/No attack cards, then Alayudh will become an easy target for such cards.

Chapal :
Can dodge Astr attacks

Cards with Chapal:

Level 1 onwards : Jambavant, Ghatotkach, Jamvak, Jatasur
Level 2 onwards : Vasati
Level 3 onwards : Shishupal
Level 4 onwards : Vakr
Level 5 onwords : Vriddhakshatr
