Have no comment on this at this time (no, that's not a bad thing, it just means enjoy 26 for now!)

What happened to the US this weekend in golf?

U.S. lost to Europe for the Ryder Cup, but that's all I know.

Is Kisame shark mode going to be a reinforcement?

Were the cards for the tp3 contest ever given out?

I believe they were, yes.

That is the plan, though an upcoming partnership with our video game division will be pressing production forward a little bit, so it all depends on how it all works with them!

Will we see an increase or decrease in SJC prizing soon?

I don't know, but I don't see a reasoning why we would decrease the prizing.

Will bandai start officially announcing SJCs or is it up to the players to look on the op website to find information on them?

Have they not been announced properly? I usually see a post on FB and on the main page advertising it.

I do not know, since I do not send those out. You'll need to email Andy. His email is doa AT bandai.com

1. Can you give any sort of update about the state of the game? Realistically, do you see this game 'bouncing back'? What can you say about what you're doing to help make this happen?

2. What's happening with the Ninja showdown polls? The last one was Itachi vs The 1st Hokage? Where did 1st Hokage come from?

3. Any plans to make a new Jiraiya Sage Mode in the next few sets?

4. Of the new mechanics, which is your favorite (and why?)

5. What are your goals for unlimited? As in, what's your ideal unlimited format?

Definitely happy to see Tylar's Corner back again. I really appreciate you taking the time to do this!

I think the game is getting back to being on the correct track in terms of the cards themselves, but the rest of the game needs to be picked up next. I have a firm grasp on the design directions I want to go, so now its time to make sure everything else is pulled up as well.

TL;DR: It'll be a lot of work, but I could see it happening.

2. What's happening with the Ninja showdown polls? The last one was Itachi vs The 1st Hokage? Where did 1st Hokage come from?

That is a texans07 question. I was a little puzzled myself, but I haven't had a moment to ask him about it.

3. Any plans to make a new Jiraiya Sage Mode in the next few sets?

I want to, so I'm looking for any opportunity to do so!

4. Of the new mechanics, which is your favorite (and why?)

Hmmm, I like revitalize, mostly because of where the idea for it came from for the deck, but that's a story for another day!

5. What are your goals for unlimited? As in, what's your ideal unlimited format?

Unlimited will always be a speedy format until a control variant is pushed into it. This ties into my overall goals for the game that it really needs a control style of deck.

Definitely happy to see Tylar's Corner back again. I really appreciate you taking the time to do this!

It was okay.

What element or deck do u play right know,

It's been awhile since I've played Naruto since Resident Evil has been my focus, but I have been playing mono wind and it is by far my favorite at the moment.

Nice to have u back friend

To some degree, yes, and that's only if you mean 27.

You need to email him. I can't send you anything to help you out there. You can PM me a copy of your email if you want me to follow up.

It's more like I want you to enjoy set 26 since it just released. Enjoy what's on your plate before going and getting a second plate! Don't want to spoil you all that quickly!

*many Smiley faces* Happy to see u back. That means u r in better health right?

Why hasn't the emoticons been fixed?

Why did you say that if I could think of a better way to write chakra disturbance, u would errata it, if it wasn't gonna happen I did send u that pm u asked for in an old Tylar's corner. (There's a similar question I'm waiting for YOU to answer in q and a.)

What's ur opinion that many people got screwed on the super rares in set 26.?

I want to know what you want to know, so ask away, "anything" being okay to ask about, with those quotes representing the electric fence of those questions I can see peetering around in your brain.

When did the rule for only being able to have 3 of any named card in main deck/sideboard get abolished? Cause I clearly see 4 Deva Path Pain in Gencon Winners deck/sideboard.
