    This is actually quite good; I haven't seen any major flaws yet (for me). If I had to say something, it's that it's still ongoing, but the author's updates are consistent, so it's not too bad. I don't know why so few people are reading it. The female protagonist transmigrates from a cultivation world to a card game world. She's not at max level right from the start, and it's not a mindless wish-fulfillment story, but it's not frustrating either. She immediately takes down those who bullied the original owner. The setting involves creating cards and using them to fight and kill alien beasts. There are entertainment card games, similar to a full-immersion game.
