ERRATA: Name change only lasts until end of turn.

Well, nice to see that we now have a build that isn’t ZANBAKU. Or it could still be, I dunno. Honestly, the fact that we can hybridise Shirayuki, ZANBAKU and now this just makes everything needlessly complicated. But looking at it alone, a hard +1 that then changes everything on the board into HYU-GA is not a bad skill, but the main draw is in the second one: SB a Grade 3 to boardwipe the opponent’s field. Obviously hell to Accel players. As for the overall cost, I can’t say it isn’t balanced, but this is clearly not a finisher, although tbh nothing in Murakumo is: it plays the grind game.

By virtue of employing Force tactics in an Accel clan and not encroaching on ZANBAKU, I suppose he can stay.

3/5
