Today's card is another epic Squad Card. [Tag
Team] is a perfect name for this teamup. At 5/5 -
4/4 it makes a good Back Ninja. Having Sharingan
Eye, Mastery, and Tree is a cool combination, plus
the 5 Mental can come useful when the time is right.
Their Valid effect allows you to reveal the top card
of your deck when they win any sort of Victory. If
the revealed card is a Jutsu you get to move it to
your hand... after giving one Damage to an opposing
Ninja. So, this could make a Regular Victory seem
like an Outstanding Victory, and an Outstanding
Victory will bring along a little bonus. In Limited,
like with every Squad, they could just be dead
weight. They're better in Constructed (where the
Kakashi + Yamato combo could bring them out
quickly).
Today's squad is one squad that you think Bandai
would of made ages ago. The squad is sort of weak,
although it has Mastery to make up for it, and the
support is pretty decent. The squad is sort of
difficult to pull out, since you'll need to be
running Kakashi (Childhood) in Earth to consistently
pull out the squad. Even if you pull it out, you'll
be losing your Yamato [Control By Fear] or
[Planning], which are two of Earth's deadliest
weapons. So do the ends justify the means?
Personally, I don't think so. The stat gain isn't
too much, and the effect isn't consistent, however,
it is still okay. Since it is a squad, there is no
downside to run it if you have the room for it, I
guess.
Limited: No Yamatos' previewed yet
Constructed: 3/5
Block: 2.75/5 [CBF] is legal here.
