Beastly Mage
Revival of the Dead
Good card, situational effect. This Jutsu that only
Orochi can use is a bit bad in Limited (if not
awful!). Now, in Constructed, this card will be
good. If you manage to pull the effect off, you'll
be able to revive up to 2 Ninjas from either your
Discard Pile or that of your opponent's. It's pretty
good that way. In Limited, I only see it as fodder
for your big Water Ninjas.

J-600 Revival of the Dead
Heh, a good card name for me today. Was sick for
the past few days, so I'm trying to res myself a
bit, so let's see if we can't get this sexy disco
party start'd!
Today's card is the finale for Oro week, and it's a
pretty situational card, in the fact that it
requires other cards to really work. Now it's hard
to recommend cards like this, but before I get too
deep into it, let's look at it's stats, shall we:
Revival of the Dead
Water
Requirements: "Orochimaru"
Effect: If you pay the cost of this Jutsu with a
"Summoning Jutsu: Reanimation" Jutsu card, or "Orochimaru's
Forbidden Jutsu" Mission card, place up to 2 Ninjas
from your Discard Pile and/or your opponent's
Discard Pile and put them(it) in play in the user's
Team in any position.
Its pretty specific, both on user and cost for it,
but it's a huge bonus. Combo'd with Threat of the
Tail'd Beast, you could probably hit the
requirements pretty often, but only having one user
and a specific cost makes it a hard play in any
deck.
But I'm a fan of this card, so I'm going to rate it
somewhat well, as I think it has a morbid potential
that I love.
Constructed: 2/5 Not great, but if you can hit it,
it's awesome!
Limited: 1/5 Don't even know if those cards are in
it...Art: You brought back Laurel and Hardy to fight
me?.../5

Revival of the Dead
The first line of text absolutely ruin this card for
me. Last I checked, Summoning Jutsu: Reanimation was
bad and still is. Orochimaru's Forbidden Jutsu has
become slightly better due to a certain Orochimaru
from this set, but he has to be in play, making the
mission bad until at least TUrn 6 (and that's if I
have Orochimaru in play). On top of that, the card
only has a single user. Single user plus specific
requirements to fulfill the effect makes for a bad
card, unless the effect says "you win the game".
