WHAT?!?! Discard/Puppets!!!!

[Sakura's Retribution]

Yeah, I know...a little over the top. That is the reaction each person I have told about this deck has said. Oddly enough it seem to work well, using neither of the [secret skills] ninja and their useless puppet wall makes the deck a bit more cost efficient also. As you may have noticed from my other thread, I do like to try and avoid cards that follow a cookie cutter form unless necessary. It becomes too much hassle to get cards everyone scrambles for, and I don't have $30+ to throw down for FBGs, Hirukos, Chibi Sasoris, or Hydro-Pumps.

Main idea is about the same as standard discard water, just using puppets to bolster the hand and graveyard with more ninjas. Was also considering childhood orochi so i can use revival sooner, but didn't want to take out any sakura (for her ability to heal and discard) or ebizo (because he refills my hand so i can discard more). Changes or cards I am considering are listed below, any thoughts and reasons would be appreciated.

Orochimaru (Childhood) [so i can use revival earlier]
Orochimaru (White Snake) [in place of Kabutops. during a playtest i took an opponent's full True Allies combo using this on naruto and revival of the dead on sakura and kakashi, the opponent scooped]
More Kidomaru (State 1) [obvious reasons, just couldn't make room.]
Karin [Sensing] or [Warden] [unsure which would be better, also unsure what I would take out.]
