idiot. Obito is a pretty fair card, and Sai is definitely a bit too strong, but not quite broken yet. Anko however, can get ridiculously powerful with Naruto [Nine Tails Cloak].

I don't like that she's a 3 drop but I like that in lightning I can effectively use both her effects.

[GrimFingers]

I could fit her in my lighting deck n-n

[Ninja Pebble]

Awesome art! I always approved of Anko's style of dressing.

o.0 if this card does this i wonder what the F the next card will do i hope it's a void card.

I think I'm the first person to think so, but I don't like Anko. In Water, there is already much better options for your 3 drops. Plus, she's a -1 to hand. In Lightning, Anko's a little stupid with Group Lesson pre-rotation, but post-rotation she just isn't worth playing. I know that you can draw a decent amount with Cloak Naruto, but my problem with that is that they are both turn 3, and the earliest I can actually get that off is turn 5, when I would rather play other cards than a mediocre 4/2. Sai is better stated and effectively gets me to my late game cards faster, while Anko is an understated situational draw.

On a side note, all these Utakata type effects are getting a little recessive. :/

None of these cards will be legal before rotation. People need to take that into account. They won't affect the current meta. Now the problem with Sai is he's also a 3 drop and in all honesty what ninja are you gonna race to play next? Likely a Naruto since your playing lightning which means his boost Turn marker effect is too little too late but draw is always valuable it's also very unlikely that if your playing lightning that you won't net alot of cards from her effect it's not very situational at all. As far as their stats of course Sai is better but that only matters when you play for stats I play for effects so Anko's my favored option.

in water her other version is better but in a lightning deck I can see her being used. set 22 is looking to be a good one

If you play this in Lightning on turn 3 and you don't draw at least 6 cards that turn you are ****ing clueless, this card is amazing, if GL wasn't rotating out this would be even more absurd.
