Combo of the Week 2: I'm going Mental!
November 26, 2007
 

What's that!? Is it a bird!? A plane!? It's Superman!!! Wait... No. It's not. That's just silly. It's the Combo of the Week!!!!!!........ Um... Wrong again. It's just two birds killing each other. False alarm!

Were you sad because there was no COTW last week? I'm sure you are. Don't lie. You are and I know. You can't hide what's inside. And I am in you!................. It's true. Look. ANYWAY, I'm going to give you two combos this week! Do you know what they're about? Hm? No? Well, screw you. It's about Mental Ninjas! You know, like Temari on a bad hair day, or Gaara, when you make fun of him, or Sakura, when you talk about her forehead, or Naruto, on any given day.

Combo One: Ibi-Shika-Sak
This thing's gonna use 3 frickin cards! The first one will be Ibiki Moreno [First Proctor], a lazy turn 3 Earth Ninja, slightly trailing behind with 3/2 and injured 2/1. When attacking, he'll cause a Mental Power Battle against the other team!!!! AWESOME!!!! Mental decks need good, costless, effective ways to cause Mental Power Battles, and even with a Mental Power of 1, Ibiki more than fulfills his call of duty (Oh I hate that game!). Back up this team with your favorite Shikamaru and you're good to go with 5 Mental Power!
So, Ibiki Moreno's weak spot shows to be when he must block. So we'll cover it up with Sakura Haruno [Teamwork between high IQ Ninjas]. She's got the normal crap Sakura stats, but her effect will und up making your team of mental ninjas INVINCIBLE! When her team is blocking, and you have Shikamaru in the team, it becomes a Mental Power Battle! Since you should already have Shikamaru out at all times, she'll do great! Put Ibiki up front and you've got a team of 8 Mental that only battles Mentally!

Combo Two: Shield of Sand Ladies...?
Okay, maybe it's not Mental Week. But I just found a really cool combo that's in my deck! The first card in it is Gaara of the Funk. Live with it. It sounds better than "Gaara of the Desert". To be exact, it's Gaara of the Funk [Sand Barrier]. His ability blocks out all of your opponent's ninjer's effects! He's completely unaffected! No 3rd Hokage to take him down, no suicidal Naruto, and I'm pretty sure he won't be drawn into a mental power battle... I think.
Anyway, Shikamaru [Formation] can't even negate him! Gaara of the Funk! Card Two will be his big sis, Temari [Wind Charmer], holding the ability to annoy the opponent! In order for your opponent to target a ninjer in her team with any Jutsu card, they must pay an extra chakra. W00t11!!!11!!11!111111!

This means that, assuming these two are in a team, Gaara will be unaffected by other ninja effects, and just about every Jutsu won't hit them. After this, you need only to further improve their team power of 6 to have an unkillable team!

Don't forget, my loyal fans (of which I have none of), you can still email me your combos >:( . My email is destinyhero@verizon.net  (They used to be my favorite YuGiOh cards but now I hate them and I'm gonna change my email next week) and now I'm gonna make a weekly theme! Or at least this week anyway. This theme is "Neji Hyuga". Neji just barely defeated Kidomaru the Happy-Hoppin'-Mexican-Spider-Man, and you can email me your best combos involving Neji, and I'll feature the winner on here! Plus, if you're emailing me a combo to feature on here, it doesn't need to fit the theme!
