hm, interesting card. I saw the picture of all the jinchuriki in the manga, but didn't think anyone'd make cards out of them. the effect is interesting, and a good way to make it if you don't know about the character itself.

Quality: 4.5
-.25 for the white outline around the sand. Both Thayli and I researched other Gaara cards, and none of them have the outline.
-.25 for some white marks/blurriness near the text box, right above the Entrance/hand costs

Effect: 4.0
I really liked this effect. However, Thayli and I found some errors in the effect. First off, the effect is mandatory, whether the Ninja that would otherwise take a damage is a chump blocker, or in his own team and took damage due to showdown. This alone would make the card almost unplayable, because killing any random Ninja would in turn kill him. 2K on your Choji? Gaara dies instead! Possibly make it so his effect would kick in when another ninja in his TEAM, or even a Sand ninja would take damage. Also, adding "this effect cannot be negated" to his first effect would have been nice.

Text: 4.25
-.25 for general punctuation errors
-.25 for flavor text font; not similar to Bandai's
-.25 for the surname being too large; otherwise fine

Overall: 4.25

Missingno's final score: 17.00

I made it mandatory because I felt specifying would make it almost too good. I wanted him to have a downside, and that downside being that if you chumped or they hit another one of your ninjas it killed him.

I'll keep the mistakes you pointed out in mind when making my next card.

P.S. keep in mind none of your ninjas cannot die for at least the first turn he's put into play.

Seven-Tailed is broke. She includes herself, making her a 1/2 healthy immediately. If you play a head ninja on 0 drop (Naruto, Choji, Sumaru), she's a 4 support on turn 1.

That is, unless she contradicts herself. She gets +1/+2 since she's 0/0. Oh wait, she's not 0/0 anymore, so she doesn't get +1/+2. Goes back and forth?

Hmm did not realize she would include herself, that is a error on my part i never meant for her to include herself, that is a mistake on the text part if it does allow that

Yeah Kisame and I noticed that very thing, shes basically 1/2 and 0/0 at the same time if there are no other ninjas to trigger her, which is really really weird. However if there is another ninja to trigger her then she never counts herself. The effect literally is broken as in it warps the universe of the game.

-.25 for white areas around the upper border of the text box
-.25 for her not having legs... not sure if it was just the picture or an error on your part

Effect: 3.75
Very, very interesting effect. To quote Thayli: "At first glance it looks bad, second glance broken, third glance you realize its actually pretty balanced". I'd have to agree to a point. First off, I think there should be a "cap" to the amount he should receive. In an element (lightning) where most ninjas have one or no support (naruto OC, Rock Lee/Gaara, Might Guy, Sumaru, Idate, Konohamaru), your card can quite possibly be an 8 support.

Then comes our second issue of how the card is worded and how it effects itself. I'd assume that it would target itself as well, making her a natural 1/2. But because she now has 2 support, her effect wouldn't target her, making her a 0/0 again. then her effect would trigger, making her a 1/2, etc. Seems like an infinite loop to me. Possibly make it so it only works on OTHER ninjas and not herself?

I do have my own ideas as to how you can rework this card, so deffinately PM me or something if you want to make it better.

-.25 for flavor text not being similar to Bandai's
-.25 for the "Jin" in "Jinchuriki" not being on the exact same plane as the rest of the word
*Surname and effect text is perfect to me!*

Zorc's final score: 17.0
