N-685 Sakura Haruno & Tsunade [POWER OF kUNOICI]
Welcome back to "couple's skate" on Pojo. It's me,
your old friend N. Jolly guiding you through our
world of partners this week, and it's getting closer
and closer to Valentine's Day! And tomorrow +
Friday, we get preview cards! Isn't that great? I
love love!
Today's card is a rather fun one from set 15,
featuring the two most prolific female ninjas on the
show. But that right there is a problem with this
card, that is takes both of those ninja off the
board. I guess I just like having my Sakura and Tsu
both on field. But let's take a look at it's stats,
shall we:
T7 HC0 Wind/Earth
Leaf | Female |
Chunin | Satoosa | Sannin | Medical | Mental Power:
6 | Mastery | Squad
9/4 7/3 CA:
Medicine
Set 15:
Super Rare
Lots of keywords
with this card, but a few stand out, like Mental
Power: 6! That's a six card draw off of Sakura's
Decision, a card any deck running this would play.
Mastery is also quite potent here, as it allows the
recycling of all of your Saku/Tsu jutsu, like Cherry
Blossom Impact, Clean Hit, and Heaven Kick of Pain.
Wind has pretty good chakra generation, so being
able to repeat jutsu like these is a pretty strong
ability. Being a 9/4 monster doesn't hurt either ;)
But even with that, there's the problem of being
both Sakura and Tsunade on board, which hurts
medical decks (which this probably will be in). Is
it worth it to lose them both? Let's check out this
card's effect, shall we:
[POWER OF KUNOICHI]
Valid: While
you have only "Female" Ninjas in play, each of your
"Female" Ninjas, including this Ninja, cannot be
affected by the effects of Jutsu cards used by your
opponents "Male" Ninjas and effects of your
opponnet's "Male" Ninjas.
This is really the
clincher in most Female decks, but the problem is
right now, Female isn't a full deck. And losing
it's two stars (really the only knock I have on this
card if you can't tell) isn't great. Not being able
to have any males on board also hurts a lot, as most
decks will have the random Shika/Kabu(in medical)/Sasuke
in deck, and losing them does not help at all. For
this, your ninjas are almost invincible except to
missions, but it's hard to have all females on field
all the time. Seeing some of the things we have
received in Set 16, I have a bit more faith in this
card to pull the deck together, but only time will
tell on this card.
Limited: 2/5 Stat
beast, but it's hard to pull off...
Constructed: 3/5 A
solid card, I like it.
Block: 3.5/5 A
little better here, less to contend with.
Art: Girl's night
out is very dangerous in Konoha...but totally worth
it!/5
