Beastly Mage
Fire
Style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu
Today's Jutsu is one of the Uchiha Clan's signature
techiques. This Jutsu doesn't really do damage like
the other versions, but it's a reaction Jutsu like
Sharingan Eye. Rather than negating and discarding
the Jutsu, it changes its text. Lets say your
opponent uses something like Chidori. FS:PFJ changes
that Chidori's effect to a Jutsu that gives every
Ninja in the user's team (including the user) one
damage. That, my friends, can be trully deadly if
played right. Remember, the Jutsu being changed is
still your opponent's effect. *Hint**Hint* In
limited, if you can draft at least a couple of
Jonins and enough Fire, it could work. In
constructed, it's even better. Try it and see.

J-498 Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu
N. here reviewing some of the Bandai previews for
the upcoming set Emerging Alliance!
Our first (non exclusive) preview is Fire Style:
Phoenix Flower Jutus, a fun new card from the
massive amount of new amount of fire reactive jutsu.
I myself really like the new reactives, and feel
that they'll give a new layer of strategy into the
game.
Onto the card itself; Requirements: Jonin or Higher,
Cost: FFF, Targets an inplay jutsu. Now this is
where it's different. It targets a jutsu card in
chain, which means unless there's a chain already in
play, this card can't be played. What this card does
is changes the effect of the jutsu card to "give one
damage to all ninja in the users team including the
user." That pretty much hit's the old Phoenix Flower
on all ninjas in the users team but without needing
them all to be fire. Honestly, this card is negation
and massive damage, but the real issue here is the
cost of the card. Unlike Water, Fire isn't used to
paying three chakra to do anything that isn't an
insta kill such as Dragon Flame or has no specific
users such as AW Fireball. This card requires a
Jonin in play and three chakra, which a lot of fire
players don't like, when for the most part they
could just Trigram their opponent and almost
guarentee an OV at that point. But I see value in
this card against TBM/OC decks, as generally they're
going to be having their TBM/OC using their jutsus,
and he's generally injured whenever he's sent out,
especially if they're using Haku(/Futaba). In that
situation, I'd rather have FS:PFJ over the other
reactives, so it depends on how the meta game sways
with all the Earth TBM/OC hate
Constructed:3/5 A strong card, a good card, but is a
bit expensive and later game that it could be.
Limited:(If there's an Itachi/Kakashi in EA):4/5
Art:Not too cool/5

Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu
The arrival of reactive jutsu have a lot of players
to rethink just about every aspect of their decks.
Cards that were once widely playable due to their
ability to extend their 'shelf life' like Kakashi
[Eye that Detects Falsehood] have rapidly begun to
fall out of favor simply because reactive jutsu give
them and their near-invincibility the finger.
This particular jutsu has the power to dish out 1
Damage to every Ninja in an opposing team which is a
very strong effect that can lead to an easy OV for
your team if left unchecked. However, the strict
chakra cost will likely keep this card from
consistently seeing play; Fire isn't the best
element for chakra generation, and three Fire is
simply too much to pay for negation.
Limited: 1/5
Constructed: 2/5

Hey there
everybody! Life treatin' ya good? lol, Today's card
is a "new kind" of jutsu being introduced in the
next set called "Reactive Jutsus". These jutsus are
booby traps so to say for your opponent to run into
them whenever they would activate a jutsu, these are
also a form of indirect negation and an incredible,
plausible way to counter the infamous [Overflowing
Chakra Ninjas]. However, people may think they're
broken because of how they work, but they actually
aren't, up till now all reactive jutsus are fan-able
and also, they basically do the same as a 8 Trigrams
or a Water Vortexx would do, only in a different
way, you still spend the same amount of chakra to
stop the opponent from resolving their jutsu and
they still can respond to it, but it's a new way
around many kinds of ninjas and definitely something
ninjas should have as they mainly are about stealth
and traps right? Now onto the jutsu:
Fire Style Phoenix Flower Jutsu J-498
This jutsu with 3 Fire chakra as a cost is a
jonin or higher rank fire jutsu that targets one
jutsu card being played and it CHANGES the jutsus'
effect to give damage to every ninja in the users
team including the user itself. It's a very nice
effect but it has a very tight cost of 3 fire which
means it's fan-able and also expensive to use. It's
not a bad card for sure but however there are better
reactive jutsus then this one and cost less. However
changing an opponent's KO Blow or Rasengan's effect
to slap everyone in a team is NEVER something bad
for sure.
A new kind of jutsu with a very nice effect but
very steep cost.
Limited: 1.5/5 (Ew 3 Fire :S)
Constructed: 2.5/5 (Better out there but good still)
