Water Cutting Blade
One card that makes my Zabs a 10-combat home
wrecker? Where do I sign!?
Ehh...honestly, I don't have room in my deck for a
pump card, no matter how awesome it is. However, not
too many people run Escape Jutsu in their main deck
anymore, so it could serve as a good surprise.
But, when it comes down to it, this card loses to
Senbon. Sure, this card will generate larger pumps,
but Senbon's versatility is unrivaled.
Bottom line, it's a good card. If you have the room,
run 1 or even 2. This card really shines in Limited.
It's cost is insanely low for a potentially tide
turning effect.
Constructed: 2.5/5 (I'm just not a fan of pump
cards)
Limited: 4/5

First, I'd like to say a
big hello to all you Naruto fans out there, and give
a big thanks to Pojokage-sama. I'm glad to help out
here, and glad that I was given the chance. If
you've seen me around the forums (as Cataphractor),
hey.
So...
Water Cutting Blade
Requirements: Ninja with the "Water" symbol.
Target: User
Effect: The target gains +X/+0, during the turn.
X = the target's original X - the target's original
"Injured Status" combat.
Pros:
- Possible double attack
- Many good water ninja out there
Cons:
- Cost
- Deckspace
- Easy Negation
I prefer not to play Water myself, but I like this,
as it allows head ninja with little or no support to
become real monsters. Now there's a problem with
that last sentence, and in my mind it's Water
Cutting Blade's biggest weakness. Spotted it yet?
Yep, it's "head ninja." If you're already using a
ninja with no support, they're either really useful
(Dosu [Sonic], perhaps) or deck filler. Either way,
it gives your opponent one more way to negate this
sucker, and at two chakra I'd rather be using any of
the better and more mainstream water jutsu out
there. And that's the second problem - deckspace.
You'll find it's not a great idea to load your deck
up with too many jutsu. And when there are better
jutsu out there for your particular element, the
more unreliable justsu such as Blade just aren't
worth it, IMO. It might be a good substitute for
beginning players who can't get their hands on many
rares just yet, but I'd dump it sooner rather than
later as there are much better jutsu for the cost.
Advanced (of 5): 2.5/5 -> Useful, but I wouldn't
take it to tournament.
Limited: (of 5): 3/5 -> It's common, so I can
definitely see a use for it here.
Art: 3/5 -> Stabbity H2O.

Water Cutting Blade
Pros: good power boost
Cons: Can only be used with water
This is a realy good card for water decks since
(Depending on your ninja) this card can give you a
good sized boost it is also inexpenisve i mean come
one 1 water and 1 colorless it can become pretty
dangerous especailly if used with Zabuza, Suein,
Orochimaru, Haku etc... my only major complaint is
it's water spefic but with all the new water suport
that's not a big deal so overall a very good water
deck card
Constructed: Water 4/5 not much more to say
Limited: 3/5 if you can get some other water cards
like Suein

Water Cutting Blade
Type: Jutsu
Symbol: Water
Requirement: Ninja with the “Water” Symbol
Target: User
Effect: The target gets +X/+0 during this turn.
X-the target’s original X- the target’s original
“Injured Status” Combat.
And the weak get stronger…..
Now to clear this up, the “X” is what would be the
Combat of the selected Ninja if it was Injured, So
that Naruto Uzumaki [Strength In A Crises] just
became a 5 without being Injured for example, The
strength of this card is really only as good as the
Ninja using it. REALLY the only Ninja that can gain
any true benefit from this card is the Fourth Hokage,
but he’s Uber enough as is.
Limited: 2/5
Constructed: 1/5
P.S. My very first review came in late, on the Water
Walking Trainning, so it may not be there. :(
the
bogosian explosion
Water Cutting Blade
Salve, my good freinds. That means "Hi" in latin, i
think. No matter no to the review for today!
Hmmm, yep i have about a million of these. And do
you wanna know what i say to each and every one of
these...mmmm when does the garbage man come? I know
i know your probably all crying out, "Come on
Bogosian, if you use it on the fourth hokage he'll
be super strong." Yes, yes he will. From the
perspective of someone who pumps up there ninjas
this is a very sweet card. On the other hand let us
take a look at the thousands of ways to turn this
into a major flop:
-sexy jutsu
-shadow possesion
-water prison
-sharingan eye
-sharingan eye(the sasuke one)
-wind scythe jutsu
-8 trigram
-anything that returns to hand or injures/discards
All these things are run in every single deck, and
most ninjas have very low injured status. It could
be used effectivly late game with jirayia or any
jonnin, but lets face it, if you have a lot of water
chakra wouldnt you rather save for vortex/silent
killing or water prison?
mono-water: 2/5
constructed: 1.5/5
limited: 2.5/5 (soo many water cards)

Water Cutting Blade
Pro: Two Cost, Only One Water
Power Boost
Con: Must Be Water Ninja
Few Ninja Make It Worth It
Again another “almost great” card; for only two
chakra you can give one of your ninja a power boost
equal to their original power – their injured combat
power, that’s if I’m reading the card right since
the image I’m using is a little fuzzy. Talk about
amazing, if a Giant Snake could use jutsu cards.
That would make an 8/0 snake, that’s a lot of bite.
But, alas, they can’t. The only ninja that I really
want to use this with are all less than 2 turn drops
and are Vanilla flavored or just don’t have that
great of an effect. You’re better off running Kunai
and getting a +2 for just one chakra of any kind
than this if you ask me.
Constructed: 2/5
Limited: 2.5 (Just in case you’re drafting water and
you can’t get any kunai)
Art: 2/5

Hello you!
Todays card, water cutting blade, is not that bad,
in my opinion.
Jutsu
Name: Water Cutting Blade
Cost: B1
Target: User
Effect: Target gets +X/ +0 during this turn. X= the
target's original "injured status".
Ok. I don't really think this game is extremely like
VS., where pumps are amazing. For kids just starting
out, this could help to fill a spot to increase
Zabuza, which is in a deck, but otherwise, I don't
see much use in constructed. I limited, it's better
because if you somehow don't get anything enough to
fill a deck, and would otherwise have to fill the
spot with some Random elemented card, then this is
better.
