hmm, naruto4ever and Ninja Pebble are pretty good judges
question: do the 2 Ninjas I make have to be the same character?

no they do not

kk. I talked to Naruto4ever btw, and he said he'll judge

If you would like I can judge too. I am trying to keep this part of the site alive now by judging any personal matches I see that have no judges or are over due in judging.

It's no problem. Are you sure you don't want an extra week? After all, we have to make 2 Ninjas, and you have to get all the stuff to make your cards right?

no im good infact i just finished my cards haha i wasnt expecting to be back that fast but like i said the wording might be wrong i always have a problem with that but other than that im done haha

lol, I'm still trying to figure out what to do

ohhhh okay...well...i fell...yea

my apologies shakky. At the latest, I will post my cards tomorrow afternoon (Saturday afternoon)

i should explain the cards the 2 card are to help my fav decks akatsuki and mill haha

the kiba is pretty explainable. Kiba is just a big boy (childhhod) so i thought whille you use Kiba for a few turns than you can growth into this for more mill since it allows you to play a ninja dog

Madara is also explainable. like kiba it helps ge another ninja. but this allows you to play any akatsuki ninja so madra pain combo. which i like so to play a awesome ninja you have to give him # BRs but you get 2 satoosa ninjas

ARGH!!! GOD DAMNIT! I'M SO SORRY SHAKKY, I JUST FINISHED RENDERING A PIC, BUT THEN MY COMPUTER CRASHED SO I HAVE TO START ALL OVER AGAIN! IT TOOK ME ABOUT 2 HOURS TO RENDER IT!!!

both my cards are finally done. Here they are!





For some of you wondering, the Konan come from the time period where she is no longer part of the akatsuki, which is why she doesn't have akatsuki (although the main pic comes from her small battle with Jiraiya, but there wasn't any other good pics of Konan with her wings) and this Konan also has Satoosa because since Pain is dead, and Konan was Pain's messenger, it's safe to assume that Konan is now the leader of the Rain

As you can see, these cards are designed to help the under-supported archtype, surge. They help the deck live up to what Wind is supposed to be. For those of you wondering, Wind is supposed to have the most draw power, (even though earth pwns and possibly lightning, pwn wind at draw power) higher support, and wind is supposed to be pretty good at removing ninjas from play (not from game, just removing the ninjas from play in general).

EDIT: As a side note, Matsuri is a turn 0 3/0, wind, female for those kunoichi decks ^.^

okay judges cards are up please post thanks

My judging will be posted around 9 PM EST. Any preferred style of Judging?

any judgeing is good wit me as long both of you agree wit it

Sorry its a day late. Im going to do a Judging for both of your cards and add the totals up.

No:
During your Mission Phase, you can remove 1 Ninja or Client with an Entrance cost of 2 or less from game. In that case, your opponent draws 2 cards.

Your Ninjas with "Surge" get the following effect while this Ninja is in play: "Valid: During your Mission Phase, you can move this Ninja to the top of your Deck. Then, shuffle your Deck. In that case, draw 3 cards.

Using "May" instead of "Can"/Use "Can" when appropriate? Yes

EFFECT TEXT 3.75/5
-Balance & Creativity: Lots of drawing going on. Following winds Surge/Draw theme is nice but the first effect im a little concerned why is it there?
Is it too powerful/weak for it's requirements/rarity/cost/turn marker? No idea where those stats came from. They arent bad but it doesnt fit with Akatsuki's curve.

Final Score: 20.25/25

Susano'o the Storm God final score: 42.25/50

just throwing this out there, but that Konan I made doesn't have akatsuki, so she wouldn't go in an akatsuki deck anyways :/
Also, since this Konan (as you can tell from the quote and the transparent pic in the background) comes from the time she fought Madara, I figured she deserved much higher stats because from what we know of, she would've killed Madara if it wasn't for Madara's sharingan H4x powers.
The first effect is there to fit with Wind's Ninja removal theme
Just saying lol
