Clearing up a few taijutsu card questions

[Bardock366]

My first question is regarding Naruto Uzumaki [Taijutsu combination] FRN-566. His effect is:

"Valid: While this Ninja is Battling as a Back Ninja, if the Head Ninja of this Ninja's Team has a "Taijutsu" Combat Attribute, this Ninja gets +0/+X. X = the value of this Ninja's Combat."

I was wondering if "X" was only his printed combat or whatever his combat might be with, for example, a growth coin. Originally, in healthy status, Naruto is 1/0, meaning with his effect he becomes 1/1 (X=1)

So with a growth coin, Naruto is 2/1 (no effect). So with his effect is he 2/2 or 2/3? I have been assuming that X=2 when naruto's combat is 2 from the growth coin but many people have argued this with me and called me a cheater.

If a growth coin doesn't count towards his combat for his effect (i dont see why it wouldnt) then I still have a card, Tortoise Ninja [Lesson] FPN-695, who gives naruto a +1/+1 boost as well. (So if x=1 for growth coin, does it still equal 1 when naruto is getting the boost from tortoise ninja).


My second clarification is regarding Tortoise Ninja [Lesson] FPN-695 and Ninja Tortoise [Unseen Strength] POPN-974. They are obviously the same ninja but they do technically have different names. I was wondering if both could be played at once or if maybe there should be an errata to fix this. In addition to that, if they both can't be played at the same time, can they be surged off of each other?

To sum up my questions (in addition to 2 more not mentioned above):

1. Naruto Uzumaki [Taijutsu combination] FRN-566
a. In his effect does X=2 with a growth coin?
b. In his effect does X=2 with the boost from Tortoise Ninja [Lesson] FPN-695?
2. Are Tortoise Ninja [Lesson] FPN-695 and Ninja Tortoise [Unseen Strength] POPN-974 technically the same ninja (naming-wise), if not, should this be fixed?
3. I have been wondering, after a jutsu chain resolves, can you start another one
4. If a ninja has an effect that says "During the Exchange of Jutsu..." can you activate it even if that ninja is a standby ninja?

Thank you!
