My own Sage Mode Idea.

[TheLastHokage]

So, I got an idea, on how to make the Sage Mode that's Balanced... So here's my idea:

Naruto Uzumaki (L)
Turn 3 HC:0 (W)
Leaf|Male|Genin|Clone Status|GROWTH
"Granpa Toad!"
(A NEW SAGE IS BORN)
When this ninja is Put in Play, sent the top 3 card from your Deck to your Chakra Area.
Valid| Mission Phase| Charge 1 Card : Move 1 card in your Discard Pile to your Chakra area. This effect can be done up to 2 times Per Turn.
3/0 Oil/Ninjutsu 6/0

Naruto Uzumaki (Sage Mode) (L)
Turn 5 HC:1 (W)
Leaf|Male|Genin|Clone Status|GROWTH
"Pain!!!!"
(SAGE MODE) Sacrifice: Naruto Uzumaki (Turn 3 or more)
You must have 5 chakra or more to Reinforce this Ninja.
Valid: When this ninja is Put in Play, divide the cards in your Chakra Area in two piles. Discard one of them.Then Place 3 Senjutsu Coins on this ninja.
Valid: At the end of your turn, Remove one Senjutsu Coin from this ninja. When this ninja has no Senjutsu Coins, return this ninja to your Reinforcement deck.
Valid: When this ninja uses a Jutsu, return that Jutsu to your hand. If you use that Jutsu again this turn, This ninja can use that Jutsu for free.
7/3 Oil/Ninjutsu/Taijutsu 10/4

Sage Style: Rasen Shuriken
Jutsu
(L) (L) (1) or (0)
Requirements: Naruto Uzumaki(Sage Mode)
Target: Ninja Battling against the User.
Effect: Remove the target from the Game. Then, Give 1 damage to one Stand-By Ninja. Then, if you paid the cost of this jutsu Place a Senjutsu Coin on the user. If you didn't, Remove one Senjutsu Coin from the user.

Sage Style: Rasengan Barrage
Jutsu
(L) (2) or (0)
Requirements:Naruto Uzumaki (Sage Mode)
Target:Two ninja Battling against the user.
Give 1 Damage to the target. If you paid the cost of this jutsu, Place a Senjutsu Coin on the User. If you didn't, Remove one Senjutsu Coin from the User.

i see one problem with rasengan barrage

'requirements (sage mode)'

jiraiya (sage mode) uses rasengan barrage for the 0 chakra cost

Target becomes 'Three' ninjas battling the user

effect becomes 'give Two damage to the target then if you don't pay the cost you remove a senjutsu coin from the user'

the senjutsu coins don't affect jiraiya sage mode at all so no problem there

now ill mastery it for 1 lighting chakra to use it again next turn

and don't forget jiraiya sage mode is unaffected by your opponents jutsus so no response.

um wow I would never reinforce that naruto cause that chakra effect is redunk-ka-dunk

[Susano'o the Storm God]

The Naruto sage mode has way too many flaws.
1. Growth is absolutely useless on him
2. 5 chakra is so easy to get even by turn 2 it's not even funny
3. Due to the way the effect is worded, I can divide my chakra into a pile of 0, and a pile of the rest of my chakra
4. He lacks the reinforcement characteristic
5. lacks "Name: Naruto Uzumaki"
6. His auto-mastery ability is absolutely broke. Excellent, I can now spam overwhelming power, Tsuchigumo, Rasengan. Feral Rage, etc. If this card was printed, lightning would have an OTK on turn 5. You'd only need Overwhelming Power -_-

Regular naruto: No, just no. It has already been proven that such chakra gaining abilities is a bad idea

The jutsus are also very underwhelming for only being usable by a single ninja. Lightning has much better jutsus to use that are easier to play. If a card is only going to have very strict requirements, it better have an effect to back it up.

Here is my version of a sage mode naruto.

It was made quite a while ago, but it would still fit decently with today's card pool alone. It's status as a turn 7 justifies having mastery, along with 2 strong abilities
