Andy has such flawless grammar and spelling for most of his articles. Then it's like somebody runs up and starts hitting him with a stapler and you get things like this or "which Shizune will you choice". I shouldn't let my imagination run wild, but I'm betting him and Tylar play pranks on each other all the time and that's why you get these errors and the various spelling errors on cards.

For 1 discard, I give Suigetsu +2 + 0 AND a benefit OFF OF the discard as opposed to 2 Chakra and no relative benefit off of this guy for -2 -0. The mechanic is nice, though, making chumpblocking even cooler than ever late game. But wait, someone remind me, where does this Sasuke have to be discarded from? Also, will we ever see interaction with RFG zone?

Yeh bro, can't wait for this game to bring out an early game squad like leviar from yugioh. Just put in play a RFG ninja each turn from either players RFG area :P haha
Would potentionally break the game but who knows, sounds like fun :P

Since Inherit says "Ninja", not "Ninja card", Sasuke has to be discarded while in-play to trigger the effect.

I sure hope not. Manda already made me really, really unhappy with effects dealing with RFG. Plus, interacting with RFG is sort of defeating the point of the zone itself, removed from the game. IMO cards in the RFG area should have no effect on the ongoing game whatsoever. As soon as cards start dealing with RFG, we'll need a 3rd discard pile.

If they did all sorts of RFG stuff I think we would have to nickname it the secondary discard pile. Then we would need a "really removed from game" zone.

Magic has that interaction with a certain unhinged card "AWOL".
