Detecting
the Enemy
Today's card could spell a nightmare for
Ambush-dedicated decks.
Detecting the Enemy negates the Ambush mechanic on
both sides. That means, neither player can use
Ambush. But, your opponent can, for a turn, negate
this mission's effect by discarding two cards from
the hand. That goes nicely with the Hyuga hand
control effect, and this card doesn't need a Hyuga
out to get the effect. On top of that it's a full
permanent card, so your opponent will be needing a
way to get rid of it if there's an Itachi [Goal]
waiting to ambush or something like that.
In limited, this could be awesome. In constructed,
even more. Try it and see.
Ratings:
Limited: 3/5

Detecting the Enemy
I'm gonna be completely honest: this card is god
awful. Cutting off a player's Ambush ability is
negligible, as Ambush itself is more of a luxury
than anything else. It's not a win condition and it
doesn't absolutely swing games, it's just a cool
trick that makes cards a little better. That being
said, if you're just getting harassed by your
opponent to the point where you feel you need this
card to keep those ninjas from jumping out of the
chakra area, you were going to lose anyway, and I
can assure you, it's not because of Ambush. And you
can just forget about your opponent ditching the two
cards to remove this thing. Most of them will just
look at it, laugh, and continue on with what they're
doing. We've been playing without Ambush for about
10 sets: it's really not gonna kill us to go 1 more
game without it.
Limited - 1/5 (No..)
Constructed - 1/5 (..And no some more.)
