3/29/06 Myke`s Card of the Day: Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu

[MykeXero]

Hello Fellow Ninjas! Im hoping to start what will be a new daily thing for me. "Myke`s Card of The Day". If you have any suggestions to improve my review proccess let me know! Also feel free to give your own review as well!

Now on to the show:

Name: Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu
Type: Jutsu
Element: Thunder
Cost: Thunder X

Target: User
Effect: The target gets +Y/+0 and "Clone Status" during the turn. Y = X times 2.

Flavor: "Take your best shot, fool. I`ll give it back to you a thousand fold!"
Number: Jutsu-005

Ruling Note: This gives a characteristic of clone status once it resolves, this is useful for other cards that require clone status to work. Remember to use your chains correctly.

Are you stuck in the middle of a game, each player with 2 high powered ninja teams? Both teams have the exact same power, so its a standoff.

What card will not only allow you to outpower your opponents team but very possibly get Outstanding Victory against that team at the same time? Its this little beauty.

When all things are equal, all it takes is 4 Chakra (1 lightining and 3 of anything else), to give your team +6 and outpower the other team. If you pull off an Outstanding Victory on your opponents primary team, youve probably just won the game.

This card is most powerful late game too, when you have lots of useless chakra just sitting around.

I belive this card will be a staple for many sets to come.

Myke`s Rating: 4/5

What do you think?

You can also choose 0 for X for cheap clone staus so you can Harem Jutsu for a measly 3 Chakra. Personally though, I don't really like cards like this. All it takes is one Sharingan once you've used all your Chakra and you're done.

eh decent so its 3/5

Easier to just use a card with clone status already on it

[Jyoushiro]

Well that's pretty obvious but since Harem Jutsu is the only thing that cares about Clone Status right now, your opponent will probably know it's coming.

I think this cards power up ability is pretty good cause 2 points per chakra can truly prove to show outstanding results but as far as the whole clone status thing it is supposed to be used as a bonus in conjuction with a card that requires clone status when you use this card . 3.5/5

That's what makes this card a smart card to use. You sort of have to anticipate if your opponent has a Sharingan Ninja in his team, then he just MIGHT be lining up a Sharingan. I dunno. Overall, I think this card is pretty good, it can help get you out of jams, or when you're in a tight spot.

4/5

[Hatake Kakashi]

I have a question about this card. Is the required chakra to play this card used in it's powering up ability, or do you need to put in additional chakra to power up?

[Chronomaster]

MSC will be a definite game turner for Lightning, I say. With the adjustable strength trick, the card will hardly be useless. Only if you're stiffed for chakra will this card find no use, and given the cyclic nature of chakra in this game, that should be far and few between.

[Kyle81]

You pay one LIGHTNING and X. X is amount of chakra you want to pay for the card, so you get 2 times X for all Chakra you spend outside of the one LIGHTNING required.
