Stormy Battle
Today's COTD has the potential to be one of the most
devastating cards.
The advantages of this card is that if you have a
Ninja with an Entrance cost of 8 or more can only be
blocked by another Team that has a Ninja with an
Entrance cost of 8 or more. The only ninja with an
entrance cost of 8 or more is nine tails which has
9/9 stats. It is permanent for 4 turns which means
you will get 8 battle rewards and there is nothing
your opponent can do.
However in order to get this to work you have to
wait until turn 9 before you can deploy nine tails.
When you do deploy him your opponent gets 2 battle
rewards. Most games have ended before turn 9 so it
is a very hard combo to pull off.
My advice is if you are going to play nine-tails run
a couple of copies of this with it.
Every attacking team that has a Ninja with entrance
cost 8 or more can only be blocked by another team
that a Ninja with entrance cost 8 or more.
Another super-specific COTD from Revenge and Rebirth
here. In fact, this Mission currently can be used
with just one other card-The Nine Tailed Fox Spirit,
another SR from this set.
Stormy Battle is a permanent mission for 4 turns,
which is nice considering that it can be out for
enough turns to ensure victory with the Kyuubi out.
The turn 5 cost is heavy, but since Nine-Tails is a
turn 9, this actually doesn't matter as much. In
order to get any kind of deck going with the Fox, it
is best to use Summoning Jutsu: Reanimation, in
order to dodge the rediculous entrance cost of the
Fox. If you were to do this with a Turn 3 Recon
Orochimaru, you could theoretically have an
unblockable Fox on Turn 4 for four turns. This would
net you at least 8 battle rewards without
disruption. This scenario is another one that
requires a great draw, but I like cool combos
myself. It'd be awesome if more applicable ninjas
are released in the future.

Constructed 2.2/10: Interesting, but only 1 target
right now=inconsistent deck
Limited: 1/10 : Stay far, far away from this card,
even if you pulled Nine-Tails. At least this one is
not a rare...
Until next time-Meb9000

Thursday's card is Stormy
Battle, another card with limited usefulness,
probably even less than Wednesday's. So far, the
only card that can use this is the Nine-Tailed Fox,
but later when more Turn 8+ ninja appear, possibly
Shukaku(Gaara's demon), Mamba and Tsunade's slug(
but they may be the same turn as Gamabunta), it'll
get better. I can't recommend this card yet until
more legal targets come out.
Limited:1/5(Good luck drawing the Nine-Tailed Fox)
Constructed: 1/5(Again, good luck drawing the Nine-TAiled
Fox)

this card can be good if
use right the only way it can be good is if you have
the fox and if you have it you should win cause this
allows you to win 8 brs so you should win
Constructed: 2/5 depends if you can get fox on the
field
Limited: 1/5

Discard to play

Hard to pull off
This is gonna be short.
Lightning is'nt the best Element. But the worst
part of this card is the 8 or more thing. I mean
seriously. How many cards can you think of that
have an Entrance Cost of 8 or more that are
commonly played? The only 1 I can think of is
The Nine-Tailed Fox, and nobody plays that.
I actually looked for a way to play this,
because the art looked cool, but I could'nt find
anything good to use with this.
