Series 25 Preview “The 4th Raikage (N-1459)”

Welcome to the last preview from the upcoming Series 25 “Kage Summit”.

We won’t go out with a whimper but rather with the biggest bang this side of the Mason-Dixon Line. “The 4th Raikage (N-1459)” is a Turn 6 “Satoosa” Ninja from the Cloud Village wielding an absolute power force with his 9 Combat while healthy and 7 Combat while injured. He boast the Lightning, Water, and Wind symbols as well as the Taijutsu Combat Attribute for maximum beastliness.

If having as much Combat as the Nine-Tailed Fox Spirit isn’t enough you can fall back on “The 4th Raikage (N-1459)” and his team crushing effect to back you up. While in a Team by himself you can pay 2 Chakra of any symbol during the Exchange of Jutsu to give himself +5/+0, (turning him into a 14 Combat beat-stick). But that’s not all! He also makes the Support of eveyopposing Ninja 0 for the turn and draws a card on top of it all.

The versatility of the ”The 4th Raikage (N-1459)” is in the face that he gives you an additional Team to swing with each turn, and without Jutsus he is a unstoppable force of nature, try it and see!

Series 25 Preview “Lightning Style Armor (J-935)”

Welcome to another preview from the upcoming Series 25 “Kage Summit”.

Our second to last preview is A’s “Lightning Style Armor (J-935)”. This support Jutsu amplifies the potency of each Jutsu that the user of ”Lightning Style Armor (J-935)” uses by changing the target to “1 Ninja”. Easily turning Jutsus that require an opposing Ninja into a Jutsu taht can snipe Stand-By Ninjas with ease.

Best of all is if A uses this Jutsu, in that case it returns to your hand after it resolves to be used again and again, electrifying is it not?

Series 25 Preview “Mabui (N-1451)”

Welcome to another preview from the upcoming Series 25 “Kage Summit”.

Today is the last day of preview from our latest set, and we shockingly end with some Cloud Village cards. First up is “Mabui (N-1451)”, by paying a Lightning, Water, or Wind Chakra she’ll search your Deck for a non-AMBUSH card of one of the listed Symbols and jolt it down into your Chakra area.

“Mabui (N-1451)” is not only the stylish secretary for the 4th Raikage but she’s a brilliant Ninja with her Mental Power: 3 and excellent Support (2). She is also one of the earliest Cloud Ninjas to trigger off “Mad Skillz (M-802)”, as well as an excellent on-color Ninja to search out combo pieces like “Seven Swords Dance (J-851)” and “Angering the Beast (M-872)”.

This trashing ability has been seen on cards like “Utakata (N-1353)”“Kidomaru (N-1465)”“Shino Aburame (N-1476)”, “Bartender Cat (N-1436)”, and “Tenten (N-1426)”; while it places you at risk to Mill Decks it does improve your chances of not missing drops or drawing crucial Missions or Jutsus later in the game when you may no longer want to draw early game Ninjas. This crucial strategy is employed in Deck Building Games and works equally well in the Naruto CCG.

Set 25 contains a cycle of this type of Ninja effect for all five of the main Symbols so try them out and she how they can tune your deck into a lean mean fighting machine!

Series 25 Preview “Secret Red Technique: Puppet Triad! (J-943)”

Welcome to another preview from the upcoming Series 25 “Kage Summit”.

Our last Wind preview for today is Scorpion’s master blaster – “Secret Red Technique: Puppet Triad! (J-943)”. Don’t be scared of its initial cost of 10 Chakra; because the first effect of this mighty Jutsu reduces its cost by 1 for each “Puppet” Ninja and “Puppet Master” Ninja you control (Hint: Play “Sasori (Puppet Mode) (N-1330)” to potentially reduce the cost of this Jutsu to 0).

What you get for playing this Jutsu is potentially game changing, requiring “Puppet” allows “Scorpion (N-1482)” to fetch it and use it. Its effect pummels every Ninja your opponent has on the Battlefield for one damage, and potentially turns the tide of battle in your favor!

Join us tomorrow for the final site preview from Series 25, and we’re ending it shockingly with one of the strongest Ninjas in the Naruto CCG so don’t miss it!
