I Counter Blast one and
discard a card from my hand.
.أفجر بطاقة وأطرح أخرى من يدي
Ich mache einen Gegenschlag
und werfe eine Karte aus meiner Hand ab.
¡Pago Counter Blast uno! Descarto
una carta de la mano y enderezo.
¡Pago Counter Blast uno! Descarto

Je paie un Counter Blast
et je défausse une carte !
Effettuo una Contro-Carica
e scarto una carta dalla mia mano.
Faço Counter Blast uma vez e
descarto uma carta da minha mão.
Совершаю Встречный взрыв 
и сбрасываю карту с руки.
