2: Just
like drifting clouds
This is one mission Fire/Fire Hybrids really love.
It's like having Sakura [ADP] plus a little extra
for two turns in Mission form. Draw power and deck
cycling can really make your deck work great. In
both Limited and Constructed this card is sure to
please. If you run Fire and don't have it yet, get
at least one, but two are even better. Remember,
it's a now in the new Starter decks.

2: Just like drifting clouds
Well, everyone say hello to a very well deserved #2
on our lists, the staple in all things Fire, Just
Like Drifting Clouds. Now as some, or all of you
know, this card was created by the winner of the
Sannin before Jerry, now unfortunately, I don't know
his name (sorry, didn't look at Sannin results until
the recent one) but he made one great card here. Now
if you're hand is bad, you can trade in for a new
one, AND draw a card. Not to mention you can do it
twice. As a non-permanent card it would be great,
but this is insane. Easily, one of the best, if not
THE best, missions of all time. The only downside is
that, you could actually make your hand worse by
Drifting (and trust me, that's happened to me on
several occasions) and then you fly into a rage. But
the reward is far greater than the risk
Constructed: 5/5
Limited: 5/5

Surprised? You shouldn't be.
The lifeblood of Fire is the best card of 2008, in
my opinion. It was initially underrated, but proved
to be worth the praise and value it holds. Quite
possibly the best draw card in the game, Just Like
Drifting Clouds is a source of hate and angst
amongst the player base for being printed for the
one element that didn't need an early game draw
card.
Though restricted to fire only, it is the one card
in Fire you should NEVER not see in 3's. Will it be
around for meta's to come? You bet. Expect Fire to
come back into play when Set 12 comes out, with Just
Like Drifting Clouds and Reinforcements being the
first cards to be x3'd in most Fire decks.
THIS card should be used as a basis for the thoughts
of ANY draw power card in the game: Early,
effective, powerful. Is it over the top? You bet.
Will anything be done about it? Doubt it.
The best card of 2008, and one of the best cards in
the game. While Sasuke and Naruto define the
metagame, this card saw far more play, and will
likely see more play in the future in comparison.

2. Just like Drifting Clouds
This is the card that helped fire make it's return
to the center stage of his game...considered one of
(if not THE) best mission in the game, this is the
card that Sannin Joe Colon gave us...ladies and
gentleman, I give you Just like Drifting Clouds!
This card has a pretty simple effect: T1 Fire, which
for two turns allows you to exchange the top of your
deck with your hand, shuffle, and then draw a card.
That right there allows you to see a large majority
of your deck, pretty much cherry picking your drops,
and
allowing you to recover from a bad early game better
than any other card. It's a fun card that allows you
to change your hand twice, giving you what you need
whenever you need it.
Giving any element this much shifting power is
incredible, and allows for a versatility that's
unmatched by anything since Sakura: A Double
Personality. It's an awesome mission that sets up
for even bigger things, and certainly worthy of
being a "Sannin" card...and having seen the other
Sannin card, it seems that they'll only be getting
better...
Constructed: 5+/5 Best mission in the game, period
Limited: 5/5 Read above
Art: 5/5 I love Shikamaru, and Choji is there
too...which is okay...
