Beastly Mage
Weapons of War
Today's card is a Mission that could be called
"Reset Button". At T5 this card can be a late-game
table turner. You get to shuffle your hand, your
Discard Pile, and your Chakra Area (all cards in
those areas) into your Deck and then draw six cards.
Now, the thing is that this applies to both players.
But, just in case you're thinking of abusing this
effect, the last part states that this Mission is
removed from play right after the six card draw.
The effect is very balanced, and works good when
facing Mill decks. It also helps if you have a bit
too much draw power and/or you tend to thin out your
deck a bit too much. Even with all that shuffling
in, it doesn't help you recover Battle Rewards,
removed cards, or whatever is out in play.
It's an Earth Mission, but I think there's gonna be
at least a couple of decks that will show up with
this card other than Earth/Earth Hybrid Decks. It
could even work in Limited, and it's good in other
formats too. Try it and see!
===================
M-791 Weapons of War
===================
Today's card shares the same name of the set, but
strangely, the art has nothing to do with it... The
set's name comes from the description of the
Jinchuruki: "Weapons of War", not literal weapons,
but I digress. The card is interesting and is
reminiscent to the set 1 mission, "A Kind Teacher".
The difference is that Weapons of War returns just
about everything to their owner's deck, except
battle rewards and cards removed from the game as
well as giving both players a new hand. Obviously,
this card helps against the ever rampant mill decks,
albeit at turn 5; mill can easily win before you can
play this card.
Similarly to Suigetsu's Joy, Weapons of War can mess
up your opponent's game plan by ridding them of
their hand, however, it could help them more
considering you are giving them a full hand. All
around, this card is interesting, but not too great.
Limited: 1/5 Not that great
Unlimited: 1.5/5
Block: 1.5/5
