Series 26 Preview “Orochimaru (N-1536)”

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

Our final card today is in my opinion one of the best Orochimaru Ninjas cards. He is his usual Turn 6 self with great Combat (6) and awesome Support while healthy (4) or injured (3). But you’ll want to keep N-1536 healthy since then you can use his effect to give 1 damage to any Ninjas with an Entrance cost less than or equal to your Turn Marker, and since N-1536 has Desperation, you can use it twice a turn. This essentially can kill any Turn 4 Ninja or injure a Turn 4 and Turn 5 Ninja the turn this Sannin is played; however, the cost is lowering your Turn Marker, and using it twice essentially lowers your Turn marker down by 3 or use it wisely.

Try this card and all the epic new cards and mechanics in the dynamic Series 26: “Avenger’s Wrath”!
