Interesting Jutsu with three options, all of which
can present to be useful. 0/0? Possible OV
potential. MP 0? Ditto, after seeing Shikaku.
Standby? Go away chumpblocker, or jutsu fizzle.
Looking at the other past options, both were 2 solid
Earth. Both had the same requirements. One could
deal damage after making the target 0/0; the other
could discard or -3/-3 depending on a coin flip. I'm
not a fan of the coin flip, so I would not consider
the latter. The first isn't that bad. However, I beg
to say that this outshines them all.
The damage could get rid of an injured Ninja, but
making a Ninja 0/0 will likely get that Ninja at
least injured, if not OVed. Making a jutsu fizzle is
great as indirect negation. Three options in a card
for Earth and a generic. Not bad.
Where's the problem? The requirements. Unless you
want to forgo Formation and Flexbility, you're
limited to just Shikaku, which isn't enough IMO.
Thinking Mode is a possibility, but Shikaku in
multiples means MP deck, and you'd likely want
Flexibility, though there is Shikamaru and Temari
platoon. I can see this being played, but until
there is a Chunin Shikamaru that is worth outshining
Formation and Flexbility, I will have a hard time
seeing this run this in multiples.
Limited: 1.1 out of 5 - Character specific = bad.
Constructed: 3.4 out of 5 - Great card with limits
due to requirements. Though when multiple users pop
up worth playing, so will this IMO.
