Suspicious Characters vs. Observer

I currently like both these missions, and I'd like an opinion to compare and contrast them, which do you think is better and why?

please don't respond with "They both suck" tyvm

We tooled around with Suspicious Characters in Void/Water in order to fill the discard pike with target for Heretical Icon. And Observer was neat back before Big Bang a Embrace got limited, and drawing 3 or 4 on a regular basis happened.

So currently, my vote goes to Suspicious Characters.

The power level of Observer depends on the meta, but it at least gets you 2 cards a vast majority of the time. With the right cards to combo with, you could use suspicious characters as a mass tutor. Suspicious characters is the potentially more effective mission, but honestly, I would rather go with observer if I had to choose one for mono-water, because they already have the best tutor mission in the meta m666 at 3 of. If you would rather hit specific ninjas than potentially gain additional missions or Justus from your deck, by all means go with suspicious characters, but if you are looking for a simpler earlier mission that is more likely to get your deck going, I would go with observer.

It's odd that you picked those two cards to compare, in that they are only alike in being water missions, but ultimately, how badly does the deck need to hit specific ninjas that make-out tactics isn't enough?

To add to the conversation as well.. where are you finding room currently for this mission, when you have:

Make-Out Tactics
Monster Research
Anko's Memory
Struggle
Dehydration


All of which are Water Mission cards and with the possible argument on Struggle, are overall better missions in Mono-Water.

I suppose I can see Dehydration as a possible non-include, but then I'd prolly play 2 Struggle in it's place.

I would probably take observer because it serves two key purposes.

1. It'll draw you cards.
2. Gives a small insight to your opponents plans/hand.

I just won a chunnin with x0 make out tactics since there is a better mission that better tutors for my stuff.

Based on what was said, I may go with suspicious characters. The main reason is lately I have been hitting only 1 card a lot and its aggravating me. All in all all I essentially want the mission to do is build chakra without hurting my hand. suspicious characters might be too late....

any other turn 2 water missions u guys like out there?

Really, it depends on the deck. Like SD said in the first post, Void/Water (Which a friend of mine built) has some fun with SC, and mono-water would play (if you HAD to choose between the 2) Observer because it's easier draw and you already have MoT.

However as ALSO pointed out by SD, Water has a SOLID mission line-up, there's really no need for either of those to be squeezed in.
