Assasination of the
Kazekage
Yeah, as if water needed to get more instant
removal. It had End of the Demon to get rid of any
ninja at the low cost of a Chunin, and now they can
bounce a sannin for free. If they have a Kakashi:
early settlement, that means you're left with a team
that just lost its biggest attacker, and you're
probably about to lose your sannin permanently.
Even if they don't, a powerful stall/diversionary
tactic. Water = really overpowered.
Limited: 1.5/5 All kages/sannin are supers, and no
way to chop 'em off the top of the deck reliably.
Constructed: 3.5/5

Wednesday's card is
Assassination of the Kazekage, a Water Mission that
on Turn 6 allows you to return a Satoosa or Sanin(or
something higher although we don't have anything
higher than those guys yet)to the top of the owner's
deck. By Turn 6, the card's effect becomes
significant as that's the magic number Turn for the
highest ranked ninjas, but the effect is merely
delaying the inevitable of the ninja coming out. It
does slow your opponent's next draw and if you can
combine it with something that discards cards off
the top of your opponent's deck like Parasitic
Insects Jutsu or Shark Skin or use something like 8
Trigrams, you can get rid of it permanently provided
the best scenario situation with 8 Trigrams. I'd run
Stay Out of This over this card as it targets more
and is a Counter Mission which allows you to play it
on your opponent's turn.
Limited:2/5
Constructed:2/5
Beastly Mage
Assassination of the Kazekage (m183)
Today's card is one that can help you get rid of
that pesky Third Hokage [APW], or any other Sannin
or Satoosa your opponent may have out on the field.
Problem is that it only targets Ninjas with those
ranks. But, with Request for Taking Office (which
turns a Ninja into a Satoosa), you may have a few
more targets with m183.

Ajj
Today we look at
Assination of the Kazekage, the poor man’s EotD.
AotK returns one of your opponents Satoosa or higher
ninjas to the top of their deck. Though at times,
this effect can be extremely helpful allowing you to
get your opponents third as a BR, it’s just too
situational and pales in Comparison to EotD which
kills one of your chunin or higher ninjas for anyone
of their ninjas. EotD is far more versatile,
allowing you to kill their third or, in some cases,
a sakura when you need to get the mental edge.
Though it’s an ok card, AotK pales in comparison to
some of water’s missions that basically do the same
thing, only ten times better.
Here are the rest of the
reviews for this week once again by Darth Sideous.

Assassination of the Kazekage
Today we are looking at another Water Mission called
Assassination of the Kazekage. This card is
incredibly useful with the current meta being fire.
It's a turn 6 card as well which is fine since
Satoosa/Sannin ninja's don't come into play until
turn 6 normally. It's an alter ego of The End of the
Demon,which makes it a good card. It removes a
Satoosa/Sannin from the field to the top of the
original owners deck. That's a good effect right
there. Since it's still your turn during your
mission phase, you can still attack, which would
force your opponent to block your ninja's team
unless he wants to lose his precious Satoos/Sannin
to the battle reward pile. This card will give you
field advantage if played right. I like this card
even though I have never used it. It could prove
very useful in Mono Water based decks
