Beastly Mage
Shino Aburame
Today's card is sure to make a few players very
happy (me included). This version of Shino is
perfect for any format, for many reasons. First off,
he's a very solid turn 0. Nice combat and support
stats, mental power, and other things. Second, and
most important, is his effect. You put him in play
(be it by deployment, growth, or otherwise) and you
get an extra Ninja. Granted, the extra Ninja is a
0/0-0/0 Coin that can't use any Jutsus, but the Coin
does have advantages. It can be used as an extra
attacker, or a chump blocker. I've seen situations
where the Bug Coin (as I like to call it) is a Head
Ninja! And, remember, there's no limit on how many
Bugs you can have on the field. Let's say at turn 0
you put a Shino in play and the Coin comes in. At
turn 1, you put the same version of Shino in play
via growth, and a new Bug comes to the field!
In short, if you get one use it!

Today's exclusive is the chibi version of the
popular T0 ninja, Shino [IW]! This guy was the shiz
when came out, and to this day he is still very
good. Getting out two ninjas early game will
guarantee you an advantage early game and can win
you some fast battle rewards with some rushing. He's
even good if you get him late game since he is
basically two chumps for the price of one. This card
is very good and will be in high demand when TP1
come out.
Limited: 4.75/5 He's great here
Constructed: 4/5 Still when of the T0 ninjas in the
game
Block: 4/5

Shino Aburame- Insect Warriors
Alright Pojo, here is another Chibi preview for you.
It is one I'm sure most of you will be proud to have
around. It is our good friend Shino.
To review this parasitic ninja. He is exactly the
same, just much cooler looking. When he is put in
play, put 1 coin (symbolizing) an insect coin into
play. The coin gets the stats of 0/0 0/0 and can not
be the user of a jutsu. It would be rather funny if
the bug coin could use Fear By Genjutsu though.
A solid effect on Turn 0. Shino himself, is a 2/1
0/0; which is under par for a Turn 0. That is
overlooked by his ability though. He has growth,
which means you can do this again. Mental Power of
an almighty 1. Finally, is a Leaf ninja. So
Succedded Will of Fire away!!! The only thing that
hurts his ability is Choji Akimichi-Infuriation.
Choji's ability to eat Ninja Coins is rather
annoying. Why can't Choji be full for once!!!
The thing that seperates this version of him
compared to his counterpart is the art.This art is
so amazing for a Shino. I love it. My favorite art
for a card in a whle. That pose could put him in
Dragon Ball Z, while looking super cool with his
shades on.
