[Temporary Vessel]
Hey, Naruto fans. Sorry I was out for two weeks.
I've been working with a few things, including the
new venue I'll be working at as a Meijin. Now, on to
the reviews.
Orochimaru [Temporary Vessel] allows you to send out
a Sannin as early as turn 4 by sending a turn-four
or higher Ninja with the water symbol on it to your
chakra area. With the usual Orochimaru stats, he's
pretty good. He's better in constructed than in
limited in my experience. Try it and see.
Ratings:
Limited: 3/5
Constructed: 4/5

Kicking of the new set we have an interesting
Orochimaru.
One of the problems for Water, as well as most
elements, is the best effects are not valid. Water
has a very strong late game. Turn 4's include Aoi,
Suien, Any of the new sound 4. Turn 5's with Zabuza,
Kimimaro... the list goes on. Once these ninjas are
injured however their stats have a significant drop
and often get left for chump blocking. This
Orochimaru can be played as early as turn 4 under
these circumstances, allowing you to charge your in
play turn 4+ ninja and replace it with a healthy
6/4.
This card is probably not going to see as much play
as [Eternal Youth and Life] and [Deal] but this
version of Orochimaru is still a decent choice in
the sound decks that are popping up. It's stats are
pretty much standard for Orochimaru and extremely
good for turn 4.
It's effect is optional so it could always be played
normally on turn 6 if things are going well.
Constructed I believe this Orochimaru would do well
for mono water and sound decks. I'd rank him as the
best Orochimaru that is not a super rare. I really
like the idea of replacing a turn 4 water ninja once
it has been injured. With damage being high on the
meta deck lists it's almost a certainty.
In limited he's good for a turn 6. There was a lot
of water cards this set and the odds of pulling at
least
1 sound 4 and enough water to deploy him are
excellent.
Constructed: 3.75/5.
Limited: 3.5/5.

Orochimaru [Temporary

This week, we start revewing cards from Battle of
Battle! Uh..... Battle of Dersterny..... Um....
Battle of Destiny. It's the new set, for those of
you have are frightened and have crawled under a
rock.
So, this is a VERY good Orochimaru, and easy to
obtain! You can put him on stage starting turn four,
and he has great stats. Six combat, four support,
and then still-solid injured stats! I'm bored, so
I'll just slap on
4/5
