Beastly Mage
Naruto Uzumaki & Shion
Today's card is the Naruto/Shion squad. This card
is one of those cards that makes it worth buying a
Lightning Starter Deck. Why?
'Cause Shion is a Starter Deck Exclusive! >.<
This squad allows you to pick a number, any
number, when put in play. When your opponent puts a
Ninja with that very same number in its Turn Cost,
then that Ninja is removed from play. Now, there's
more to this than just removing Ninjas from play.
There's also the "Super Chakra Rasengan", which we
may discuss some time later (but, I'll give you a
heads-up: the cool effect comes in play when there's
a Priestess in play -.0).

1/20 Naruto & Shion
Today's card is one of the squads I hate playing
against the most, Naruto & Shion [Prophecy of Doom]
It has the standard Naruto Characteristics (clone
status/oil CA) giving it access to all of Naruto's
nasty jutsus; Shion's Characteristics are only
useful for Priestess decks, otherwise, they're
flat-out useless.
The card has 4/3 healthy and 7/3 injured stats,
which is the best stats compared to the other turn 3
squads out there in my opinion.
Of course, the most important thing here is the
card's effect which can be a doosy: When it's put in
play, you select a number; any ninja your opponent
puts in play with the same entrance cost as the
number gets RFG'd. This can shut down some of your
opponents most powerful ninjas if you know what
they're running. Calling out 4/5/6 in water can nuke
their Vortex users, prevent Gaara [IP] from seeing
the light of day, or eliminate the threat of Itachi
and Kakashi at turn 5. The only downside to this
card is that you have to give up a Naruto which
isn't so bad if he's one of the 0 drops. All around,
this is a great squad.
Limited: 4/5 If you get a Naruto Starter, you
have both of these ninjas
Constructed: 4.25/5 Sometimes Naruto alone or
another squad with Naruto in it is better.
Block: 4.25/5 Block doesn't effect this guy at all
