Beastly Mage
Kakashi Hatake (Anbu Days)
Today's card is a real piece of work. A Super
Rare ANBU-version Kakashi. Stats are good for that
kind of Kakashi. It's even got Growth, which makes
him better. He's got a few effects. And one effect
is just great in combination with Tracking.
The Valid effect makes all your Ninja Dogs get
+1/+1. That's pretty good. Then comes the non-Valid
effect: while you have four or more NInja Dogs, your
opponent's Tracked Ninja can't be sent out to block.
In a dedicated Dog Deck, this guy is gonna do some
serious damage.
This is the final card of our puppy week, and
today we shall end it with a Super.
For starters, THIS CARD IS PRETTY INSANE. A pump
to all your puppies is pretty awesome and his
tracking effect is awesome as well, albeit hard to
pull off, but not for a rush deck. He takes up the
slot for Kakashi [Anbu Days], but you can run three
of both in the same deck, plus he has growth so you
can grow over the other one. He also will rack up
the battle rewards with his effect if you play
Scouting Party, since your opponent will lose a
blocker.
This card is the icing on the cake for Puppy
decks, and once this set is legal, I can see puppy
rush being top tier.
He's not overwhelming, but not terrible either. A
very balanced super that I plan on running.
Limited: 3/5
Constructed:4.5/5
Block: 4.25/5

Here is our final preview for this week in the
Ninja Dog Rush theme!
Of course, we had to bring you Kakashi. You knew
it was coming.
Kakashi Hatake
N-906
[Expert Tracker]
Kakashi with Tracking. I love this mechanic. This
is our usual stat Anbu Kakashi. He does have the (Anbu
Days) tag, so he fits in well with other Kakashi
cards in the deck. One of the cool things here is
not only his synergy with the puppies, but the fact
that he has growth. You can run Childhood and this
pretty effectively. So his effect grants all Ninja
Dogs +1+1, and it's valid. Nice. Can't argue with
easy boosts. The second part though is the kicker.
While you have 4 or more ninja dogs, their tracked
ninja can't block. So this is the card that ties the
rush theme together. Drop Kakashi on turn 4 and
change your tracked ninja to one in their biggest
team. Swing for massive damage. Unfortunately, that
second effect isn't valid, so keep him healthy. This
card is a super rare, and I'm not too positive it
was deserving of that status. Rare would have fit
better. But you know what? The art on this Kakashi
is 200% awesome, so pulling one just for looks isn't
too bad. In limited, if you can draft him and the
other dogs, it'd be a deck to be reckoned with. Good
luck getting all the parts in a draft though.
Limited: 4/5 Everyone loves a Jonin on turn 4.
Unlimited: 3/5 Not bad, not great.
Block: 3/5 There are so many playable Kakashi out
there already, I would find it hard to fit this one
anywhere but the theme deck.
