it was an exaggeration but 3 cards out of like 100+ is pretty low. I mean mu is nice, hirodora is only good with the sage, TBB is op but we really have so few cards that are worth it in the set.

Lol, 3 is still way wrong. Naruto, Sasuke, Clash of Ideals, Nagato, 4-Man Squad, Temari...

Cards I found to be decent, playable, or generally good would be:
4 of the swordsmens weapons, not even with the swordsmen themselves just in a general weapons deck.
3, 4, 5, and 7 tails. 7 especially with the 2 ways to cheat it out on turn 2-3.
Cat Fire Bowl and great blazing erruption. Mainly though because there are the set 22 beasts.
Sasuke (is a beast)
4 man squads.
naruto (9 tails cloak) is good, I dont care what anyone says.
Kabuto is a boss
8 trigrams is pretty sweet.
Kurotsuchi and Masterful user are personal faves (must revive that perm earth deck)
Clash of Ideals
Gathering the Beasts
Heroic Spirit and Lightning Speed. Especially together.


Thats a decent amount of cards per set really to me. Granted it doesnt excuse the basic poo like eight inner gates/black hunting, the wtf mess ups like Raikage or errata needs, and of course the junk super team that is Madara and Shattered Heaven.
Still, the set to me is worth a box at least.

I don't know if it's worth a box. While there are definitely good cards in the set, the ratio of crap to good cards is much higher than normal imo. I think I'll get half a box and purchase singles of the rares and uncommons I want (and maybe clash of ideals)
Tbh, the set may feel a lot worse than it actually is due to the complete lack of creativity for a lot of the set

If you're talking about playable, where are Tailed Beast Bomb, Hirudora, and Mu? We're going to see a lot of those...
Did you leave them out because they're total ****ups on Bandai's part?

for me, a box ensures I get playsets (and maybe extras with this rarity weirdness) of what I need. Besides the pulling of junk supers being likely (Madara/summoning/heavens) I dont see much issue with a box. Then I find singles of whatever else I may need like naruto or a playset of ideals.
Then again this set drops right around tax refund time so it might be that extra money talking more than me XD

I proceed to list all cards besides the 3 mentioned before

[Genre]

AllAnime01 pretty much hit it again. About 15ish really good cards or, rather, possibly "competitive" cards... the rest is fanboy fodder. I'm not even including the whole Impure theme; because that is still meh.

oh you guysssss
Im with Genre too btw. Besides Mangetsu and Nagato (and barely) the IR theme is a total wash. None of the effects warrant 3-ofs in the deck, and that whole theme is just......well weird. and not in a whole "yeah this is cool lets experiment" weird, just clunky and off putting :/
Mangetsu I forgot, but he is on the list. If I pull him i'll commit to the weapons.dec I been playing around with forever now. I mean copying Samui or the SR tenten or a few kisame/killer bee/asuma ninjas is handy.
Nagato I like (but purposely left off) but he only works in void turn ramp. Play child to boost (with other cards) Ame Orphans can tutor him out, (and boost TM for it) and his effect works removing those said childs so your beefed pain paths can wreck the field or net BRs. Good, but not the best.

This set was, is, and will remian a fanboy set. Meant more to cater to people finding it via looking for the video game than anything else. The irony is the majority of cards are (more or less) "eh, okay" at best, which doesnt necessarily scream "Buy and play this"
I can only imagine what YGO or Magic players would do if they got a set in their game like this one
