Today's card is a new mission. This one requires you
have a Tailed Beast Naruto out (that has a turn cost
of 5 or more). Compressed Chakra can give a damage
by discarding Chakra. You pick one Ninja, you
discard (let's say) 2 Chakras, you give one damage
to that Ninja. That's about it. It's not a card that
you would see outside the Tailed Beast Naruto deck.
Always prepared to save the world from the threat of
the Solanite Bomb, it's Cpt. N. Jolly of the Stars!
Yesterday I reviewed Chakra Cannon under the
assumption that it'd be ran in the 4 tails deck, as
would this card. But unlike Chakra Cannon, that does
not make this card acceptable. To play it, you have
to have 4 tails on board, which is really a bad
requirement for a mission to have. If you do, you
can burn as much of your chakra as you want, doing
one damage to one ninja for every two you discard.
Now that sounds pretty nice, but you know what
sounds better? Disaster of the Nine Tailed Fox, that
it does! I'd rather just run a generic board
wrecking card that doesn't kill my resources than
something that needs a specific ninja on board and
kills chakra for a better effect.
It just feels too situational to run, unlike
Disaster, which can be played without anything else.
And I know that it doesn't hurt you, but a pretty
large amount of things in lightning don't mind being
hurt, ya know, like 4 tails. I'd rather play him,
hit Disaster, and then just start sniping. But it's
not a bad card if you know how to use it, it's just
not a good card in comparison to it's commonly ran
competition
Constructed:2/5 Just not good enough...
Limited:1/5 Too hard to play
Art:I actually like this art, it's like he's howling
up at the moon...kind of nice.../5
