Well without other reviewers here at the Shaman King section of Pojo, it seems I get a bit careless. I originally was thinking of doing "Lee Pai-long" today. But on Wednesday I checked the card list and saw that I already reviewed that card! So, in a short change of plans I am reviewing "Talisman Warrior." This means we have no more Jun themed cards at all! We got reviews for them all! It's a proud landmark.

"Talisman Warrior" has no trait restriction so it can be placed into any deck without breaking a rule. This strike has a 2 green card cost, which is very cheap. If you replenish a green this turn then the cost only feels like 1 green furyoku. A 4 intercept is a bit low but is very playable in all formats. The force stands with a golden 5. The perfect number to hit. This card would seem to be a staple for every deck if it didn't have the effect.

"Whenever your opponent focuses, -1 force" is the negative effect stated on "Talisman Warrior." The effect takes place during your opponent's upcoming turn. This effect gives your opponent the option of focusing cards that he/she might flip for a more beneficial effect. Your opponent will gain furyoku and lower your force from focusing any card in his/her deck. You never want to help out your opponent. By the time your opponent gets to the red zone he/she can easily counterattack against "Talisman Warrior" and gains lots of furyoku. On the flip side you will gain some furyoku as well from replenishing. I just don't like cards that help your opponent, unless you play them against me. So it helps both sides of the match. I am not too much of a fan of the card, so I'll give it a medium review.

Casual: 3/5
Tournament: 3/5
Sealed: 3/5
