Mono Fire JI

[kunoalpha]

Ninjas: 29
2x Sasuke [Solo Attitude]
3x Pakkun [New]
3x [Death Anbu]
3x Gama

2x Rin [New]
2x Karin [makes coins -1/-1 coins]

2x New Obito

1x Old Obito [Tp4]
1x Naruto Uzumaki [Pervy Sage's Disciple]

1x Sasuke [Turn 4 [Desperation]]
2x Kakashi [boyhood] (new)

3x Kakashi [New]
1x Sa***o Hatake

3x Itachi [Formidable Visual Jutsu]

Client: 1
1x Teyahki Uchiha

Missions: 10
3x The Warhawk
3x Jonin's Intervention
2x Shattered Bond
2x The New Form of SURPRISE! (it has the 3rd on the artwork, I forget its name.)

Jutsu: 10
2x Sharingan Eye [Set 22]
2x Mangekyo Sharingan [Set 24]
2x Lightning Beast Running Jutsu
3x Backstab
1x Kamui

Reinforcement Deck: 5
3x Danzo
1x Sasuke/Kakashi
1x Susano'o (Sasuke)

First thing that I'd be trying in block in a long time, I think 9 Jonin's is enough Targets for 3 Ji, and all of them are pretty awesome early game, I was considering running 3 of tp4 chidori over Backstab, but I thought Backstab would be a better use because it can be used by every ninja in the deck.

I don't really like that Itachi especially in this type of deck. The Void one from the starter deck would probably work better.

The way I would do the late turn drops would be

Turn 4
1x New Asuma (Jonin with a great eff to be played early)
2x Kakashi Boyhood (If you insist. I really don't believe its optimal)
1x Sasuke Desperation

Turn 5
2x Kakashi (All of them are good options)
1x Kakuzu (New one. Being anything you want for a turn is cool)
1x Sa***o (Again if you insist)

Turn 6
2x Void Itachi

Just my humble opinion

Void one isn't in Block apparently.


I totally forgot about Assuma.

I'm playing Sa***o because he's a Ninja who's extremely good under Ji, he lets you discard Early game ninjas early, he basically says "if you don't block me I'm going to start discarding all of your ninjas and force you to lose tempo" it also helps that he shoots up Kakashi a bit.

I might cut out boyhood after the Pakkun ruling is cleared up, however if it stays the same I'm definately going to still run him because a Jonin on turn 2 is almost as good as Ji's Jonin on turn 1, although I really don't play that many jutsu's that support the Jonin characteristic, just a lot of things that say Ec 3 or higher, but they still cover that ground.

I do need help with the sideboard though seeing as I have no idea what's going to be played next set.

I'd run Izanagi over Kamui.
I'd run the inherit Itachi over any other ones honestly.
Also, you ought to run Sakura identity swap to make JI more consistent.

that's the one that makes the Reinforcement one who does Adp right?

Don't like Dragon Flame, Never been a fan of hitting my own ninjas [unless I'm playing circus]

The bold definitely proves you aren't much of a block player. :/
dude, you take 1 damage to totally off a ninja. Make Sasuke Solo use it on the block, and you basically have a still decent stat ninja that can now be teamed up. Make any low turn ninja use it late game (because who needs them?) and kill off a kage or their own jonin, or sage mode, or whatever.

Even better, your deck has no way to keep the jonins you would put in polay out. The turn right before they die you can have them use it on the attack, be injured (and throw them off tempo) and on the block just chump it off.

I might replace the Kamui with a Dragonflame but I don't like the card, 3 chakra and a damage to my ninja just doesn't sound appealing, I've never been a fan of having anything sideways unless it was a lightning ninja.

If you intend to take this deck anywhere outside of locals, you're going to have to change your line of thinking. If you're content otherwise that's fine, more power to you. I'm just letting you know from a completely competitive standpoint, dragon flame is literally the best fire jutsu in format, and one of the best current block jutsus period.
