Series 26 “Flashpoint” Mechanic Preview

Welcome to another preview from the upcoming Series 26 Avenger’s Wrath.

This amazing new set brings five unique game mechanics to the Naruto CCG. The fourth of these is “Flashpoint.” This keyword captures the shows’ climax and breaking points.

In the Naruto CCG, the “Flashpoint” mechanic finds its home with the Wind symbol. A symbol which is synonymous with Ninjas like those from the Sand whose entrance into the fray can shift the tides of battle; but what does it do? Well let’s take a look at an example of a “Flashpoint” Ninja card.

As you can read, Ninjas with “Flashpoint” capitalize on the Wind symbol’s numerous put in play (pip) effects. With “Hotaru Katsuragi (N-1540),” she allows you to filter through your Deck when she is put in play by drawing you a card and then having you discard a card. However, with “Flashpoint” she can then flash out of play and return at the start of the next turn and once again trigger her pip effect!

Series 26 “Flashpoint” Ninja cards will breeze into Wind Decks everywhere so check them out each week as they are revealed exclusively on this site!

A dark cloud falls over the Ninja world as Sasuke rushes headlong to his destiny in “Avenger’s Wrath”, the 26th set of the Naruto Collectible Card Game. With the Summit interrupted by the Akatsuki, Sasuke gives chase to Danzo, intent on exacting revenge against the leaf village. Introducing over 100 new cards to the game, including a young Madara Uchiha, Sasuke’s powerful Susano’o, the reality warping Izanagi jutsu, and 5 new keywords, ”Avenger’s Wrath” promises to bring the battle to you as the world of Naruto inches ever closer to the crescendo of war.

Make sure to check the “Set 26 – Avenger’s Wrath” Thread in the forums for polls and discussion of these great cards.

Enjoy!
