The Lizard Fighter's lost form wasn't a surprise to Izayoi, but very much a concern. The hardened scales of the Lizard Fighter allowed him to strike more recklessly. He knew he had to be more careful and calm given his defensive transformation had been played. And given the fact Jacques was making a move. The enemy battlemage attempted to strike him with an Arcane Longsword, which Izayoi attempts to dodge. With his current cards there was no way for him to intercept the blow, and he didn't want to lose a Man-Wolf. He had to carve a path. The easiest way, Izayoi figured, would be through the blacksmith - the one who didn't attack anything on the field despite its close proximity. A passive support. Of course, that could simply be a ploy and she could actually be a trap support, baiting him for another ambush. That was a risk Izayoi couldn't take. But there was little in the way of options. If he could get out, the haze from the Timber Pack would allow him to engage in hit-and-run tactics, as well as lessen the effectiveness of his opponents supports. Seeing as they were so close though, it would be hard to break through without some serious force. So, Izayoi decided to employ brute force. A [b]Patrol Hound[/b] is summoned behind Wily the Blacksmith, and a [b]Man-Wolf[/b] sandwiching Jacques. A [b]Spiked Club[/b] appears in Izayoi's hands, and he makes his commands quickly: [color=black][i]'Wolves, attack the closest enemy!'[/i][/color] This would leave one Patrol Hound to attack Wily the Blacksmith, a Man-Wolf to attack Jacques, another Man-Wolf to strike the Sturdy Sentry, and the final Patrol Hound to attack the Frontline Centurion. Unfortunately that left the Quartermaster free of damage, and free to make an attack... Izayoi himself had little options but to strike Wily the Blacksmith and hope the combined attack with the Patrol Hound to be enough to destroy the support, so he could charge through. He put as much momentous force into the Spiked Club, however the attack was slow, to say the least. Regardless of the outcome, Izayoi attempts to run past Wily the Blacksmith and gain some distance.
