Today's card is another Akatsuki Starter Deck
Exclusive. This Water/Void version of Kisame is a
7/2 - 5/0 with Ambush. This Kisame's effect
activates when his team attacks and all the Ninjas
have a Void symbol. When that happens you remove two
of your opponent's Chakras from play (not discard,
remove). If after that your opponent has less Chakra
than you, you move your turn marker up by 1. This is
perfect for Void decks, while giving your a bit of
Chakra Control. The stats are great, but the effect
isn't Valid. Just remember that.

Today we look at the new sharkman on the block,
kisame from set 21 starters.
his stats are much higher than the usual kisame at
7/2 5/0, making him a very good combat ninja even
when injured. Kisame also brings weapon and ambush.
As with all but one of the extend art akatsuki
sharkman is double colored, but only one of those
colors will be enjoying his services. When he is
sent out to attack (meaning he has the weakness of
having no effect throughtout most of the game) with
all void ninja, you can remove (note: not discard) 2
chakras from the game. and then if your opponent has
less chakra than you, your turnmarker goes up by 1.
void-this is the best turn 5 in void.....not that it
had a lot of competition on a competitive level. he
combines the turn marker abuse that void loves with
chakra drain that it really needed on one ninja
and an effect thats very difficult to prevent (comp
strength/zetsu is the most used way, but thats all
ninja) add to that he has the stats that got yo
back, and its clear: kisame is the top turn 5 in
void)
Kisames effect prevents him from being used/abused
in other colors, so i'll only consider him void for
this review....
overall, this was an extremely well made card, one
that will help void catch up with the other elements
who have had way more sets to become established....
limited: NA
construced: Void-5/5 (sharkman rules!)
art: 5/5 (i promise that all the extend akatsuki
arts will get a 5 in my book)
I'm DIMHWT, and this was the naruto COTD, see you
