Beastly Mage
Tenzo (Anbu Days)
Notice something about this card? He's got a printed
name, a characteristic name, yet is non-unique...
More than one Yamato in play?!
(yes please)
He's got some good stats for a turn 3, but the stats
get better if you don't deploy a Ninja. When that
happens, he gets +2/+1 during the showdown. Note it
says "deployed" and not "put in play". So, even if
you swarm with the Anbu Ninjas that allow you to put
them in play from your hand or any other effect that
doesn't count as a deployment he still gets his
effect during that turn (remember: there are ways to
deploy during your opponent's turn). Expect this guy
to make things interesting.
Ratings:
Limited: 2/5
Constructed: 3/5
Block: 3.5/5
Art: Those eyes... o_o/5
The next ninja for Anbu week is Tenzo, better known
as Yamato. Interestingly, Tenzo is Non-Unique, so
you can have him and Yamato out on the field
simultaneously, however, you must play Yamato first.
If you have a non-unique card on the field, you
cannot play a ninja with the same name without
Non-Unique. YOu can however, do it the other way
around. Tenzo's stats are decent for a T3 ninja,
however, they are augmented up to 5/4 if you did not
deploy a ninja. This goes well with Monday's
preview, Anbu Assault, since it compensates your
lack of a deploy with power. If you don't run Anbu
Assault, this card is still pretty good, since his
effect will activate during your opponent's turn,
making him a 5/4 and 3/2 ninja during your
opponent's turn. At turn 3, those stats are pretty
high, and can prevent some attacks from your
opponent. It also helps Anbu's curve and is an all
around solid card. For Earth, it is good as well
since it allows you to play Yamato's jutsus early
game, however, if you play him before your other
Yamato's, he might get you in the way.
