Temari [Analytical Mind]
Greetings Naruto fans. Been a minute since I
submitted a review. I had an affair with the World
of Warcraft TCG. But I never gave up on the Number
One, Hyper-active, Knucklehead Ninja. On to the
review...
Honestly, there isn't a whole lot to be said about
this version of Temari. Her Mental Power is standard
fare, and her support is sufficient for a 1-drop.
Her effect allows for her support to be pumped up a
bit.
Whether her pump will be enough to turn the tide of
a battle all depends on what team she's a part of
and what team she faces.
I don't have any experience with this card, but I
don't think I'd pull out my Violent Tempers for her.
Constructed: 2.5/5
Sealed: 3/5

Temari: Analytical Mind
Hmm... so basically, a 0/2 that becomes 0/3 when
opposed. Basically, we must consider whether or not
it is superior to Temari: Violent Temper. Lets take
a look, shall we?
Violent Temper has two support, while Analytical
Mind has three or more. AM is the basic choice for a
mental power deck where there may be cards to
increase her intelligence, but in most decks, it
will only be a boost of one. Power doesn't matter
too much in the opening game, as most of the battle
rewards are usually gotten later, and if this is
allowed to go straight for the village, it doesn't
get a boost. Another thing to note is that VT only
gets her effect while attacking, while AM gets it
whenever she is blocked. Both can make it to the
late game, but as time goes on, you'll get many
ninjas with three support, but none with a discard
effect.
I would usually be more scared of discarding a card
than one extra support, but it's your choice.
3.5/5 for a normal constructed
4.5/5 for mental constructed
4/5 in limited, for a lack of ninjas with good
support

We continue ore revenge

Effect:

While this ninja is sent out to battle and opposed,
it gets +0/+X. during the turn. X = the value of
this ninja's Mental Power
All the Temari cards are great support for your team
and this one is no exception. Turn 1 and a +3 boost
to your team when it battles and is opposed
or blocked, which can give you an advantage early on
in the match especially
if you can boost her mental power.
However as I mentioned she is only good as a support
card for your team if you have her out on her own
she is only useful to block an attack, which will
then reduce her to a +1 for your team.
My advice would be to try experimenting with the
three different types of Temari in a wind deck. Just
to see which is best suited for you.
Constructed: 3.5/5
Limited: 4.5/5

Continuing our R & R
reviews for the week, we come across the latest
incarnation of everyone's favorite Wind Ninja:
Temari-Rare Wind Ninja; Costs: 1-0; 0/2, 0/0; Sand/Genin/Female/MP:
1
[Analytical Mind] When this Ninja is sent out to
Battle and opposed, it gets +0/+X during the turn.
X=the value of this Ninja's Mental Power.
Word of warning, be prepared to see this Ninja. A
lot. Already this Temari has the highest support for
Turn 1 Ninjas, at 3. Combining this with any card
will guarantee a strong Ninja Team already, and of
course, everyone is gonna Team her up with Sasuke (AoC),
but I'm personally looking to Team her up with my
own weird Teams, like with Rock Lee as Head Ninja,
or Neji. Since the Temari most often seen is the one
released in Coils of the Snake (Violent Temper),
give your good-byes to that version of Temari and
greet the new one. The one drawback to her effect is
that it's not Valid, but hopefully Bandai will
change that.
Constructed: 4/5
Limited: 5/5
Art: 4.5 (She looks ready to kick some ...well, you
get the picture.)

Temari: Analytical Mind
The Good
-Turn 1 three support
The Bad
-...no attack?
Hello again, it's the Naruto Samurai, N. Jolly here
again with another card review, and what a card to
come back on. Today we have one of the best cards
from the new set, Temari(Analytical Mind.) With one
card, you can have a three support ninja by turn 1,
and the ability to pump up it's support with cards
like Ninja Info card, as well as Hidden potential.
This is a huge card in most any decks, and will be
used by most players, except those running discard
or chakra deprevation.
Constructed-5/5
Limited-5+/5
Art-4/5 I love Temari, and so should you.
