Beastly Mage
Violent Emotion
Today's card is a good one for Female decks.
Violent Emotion allows you to check out the top
cards from your deck and look for either a Jutsu or
a Mission. The amount of cards you can check out
depends on how many Females you have out. So, if you
have 3 out, you can inspect the top 3. On top of
that, you can put these cards back in any order you
want, allowing for better draws later on. ;-] Now,
this effect only applies to how many Female-only
Ninjas you have out, so Female/Male Squads and
Platoons are not covered with this effect.
Ratings:
Limited: 2/5
Constructed: 3/5
Block: 3/5
Art: I've heard of "tree-huggers"... but
"tree-punchers"?!/5
Today's card is a weaker version of another
mission, that mission being Protean. Protean did the
exact same thing except the number was 5 rather than
X. I'd rather have had it reprinted than this being
made since this card relies on you to have at least
3-4 females out to be effective. At T2, you'll have
usually have only 3 ninjas out making this effect
somewhat weak, but still decent. Late game on the
other hand, this card can easily make you search 5+
cards.
It's a decent card, but there are better Wind
Missions out there, but it might see some play in
Kunoichi decks.
Limited: 1/5 Too inconsistent
Unlimited: 1.75/5 Personally, I like Protean better
than this due to its consistency and it can be used
outside of Female decks.
Block: 2.25/5 Better due to lack of Protean, but
still lackluster compared to other game changing
missions Wind has.

Hope you all enjoyed our chibi preview card. I’m
still in awe over its cuteness. Anyway, welcome to
another week of COTD reviews. Today we have a card
from Will of Fire, Violent Emotion!
Let me just start by saying this. Sakura looks
like a total ***** in this picture, having the dent
in a tree and threatening to beat Sai to death were
he to “say anything else.” Can you honestly believe
that Kishimoto was surprised to learn that Sakura
was one of the least popular characters in his
series?
Anyway, this card isn’t bad. Thing is, wind just
has so many other options. Yeah it lets you
rearrange the top cards in your deck and it might
net you one. However, wind already has Loss,
Sakura’s Decision, Entrustment (platinum promo in
the next tourney kit), Pressing, and even Tears of
Determination if you are feeling frisky. Wind has
the best draw engine in the game, and it seems that
this card would have been better suited for Earth…or
maybe even to just have this effect on a female
ninja. As it stands, wind just really doesn’t have
the space for a mission card that can at best give
it a -1 to your hand. Not good enough for wind,
honestly.
Limited: 3/5 Good to get at least SOME draw power
in a draft.
Block: 1.5/5 Wind just has better options…
Unlimited: 1.5/5 Same deal here.
Art: Sakura, you heinous *****. Sai was just trying
to help.
