Today's card is another exclusive preview from
set 22. This Tayuya comes out at turn 1, which is
good in most cases. She's a good supporter when
Healthy, and that can help at her Turn. Notice
something about her?
That's right: no Effect Text.
She still has Ambush, which is good. She also has
"The Four Sound Ninja" as a Characteristic, so that
helps with any other cards that require this. She
can be good in Limited, but we have to see if
there's any Support for no-effect Water Ninjas in
this set (though she also helps with existent
No-Effect Decks).
Ratings:
Limited: 2/5
Constructed: 2/5
Block: 2.5/5
Art: If she plays the flute, do mice follow her?/5

Tayuya
[Vanilla]
Welcome back to another day of previews everyone! We
have another vanilla ninja for you today, just plain
Tayuya. Currently in block as of the date of this
review there are only 3 Tayuya legal in block. 2 of
them are borderline unplayable because of their
ridiculous hand costs. This Tayuya looks like the
Vanilla Ino stats-wise, but trading out growth for
ambush. (Finally, one of the new sound four gets
ambush.) Unfortunately, she didn't get the mental
power or dual combat attribute that Ino had, so
there is a bit of a difference. It seems that Bandai
is wanting to give every element an on color 3
support on turn 1, and we just got water's version.
I can easily see her being ran at most 2 of, because
your third Tayuya will be [Cursed Flute] to negate
missions.
I would have really liked this Tayuya if she had
(State 1) behind her name, but unfortunately that is
not the case. I would have made her state 2 version
so much more playable. Oh well. She's still a decent
3 support for water on turn 1.
Limited: 4/5 (Beatsticks are always nice to draft)
Unlimited: 3/5
Block: 3.5/5, but it's up to you if you prefer Karin
as your 1 drop.
