Tin Promo
4: (Energy Attack doing 8
life cards of damage) This attack is unstoppable.
Well, after seeing the lack
of reviews I felt that we should at least finish out this week.
Thus, I just picked two random tin promos for this week. This
happens to be today's card of the day. So, let's break it down
as usual. You've got an energy attack for 8 life cards and
costing 4 power stages. Uh, that's nothing to write home
about. Then you've got the secondary effect of it being
unstoppable. Hm... Now we've got a KHSB that deals more damage,
costs more, and still allows the opponent to prevent? Not bad,
and this can be used in focused. Of course, this card still
pales in comparison to it's older brother, Krillin's Heat
Seaking Blast (KHSB) but can still do a chunk of damage if
played right. Nothing much to really review, you either like
the card or you don't. Given the choice, I'll take KHSB over
this card any day. But, all the same this card can make or
break the game. If your opponent focuses too much on defense,
then fear not, because you can wreak havoc with the might of
this card. Combo this with amplifying cards to make it uber
powerful. Of course, you can even build a deck around it and
other unstoppable attacks (via Effortless Drill with a lot of
Straining Move cards and of course KHSB). The choice is yours.
Have fun.
Expanded: 3.5/5 (Not as good
as KHSB, but still usable)
Focused: 4/5 (Unstoppable.
Check. Abuseable. Check. Use it. Check)
Sealed: N/A (Odds are, you
won't be drafting out of the tin)
