Naruto Trading Card Game: The Rasengan Deck

Naruto Uzumaki has always been known for his famous "Shadow Clone Jutsu" however in both the anime and in the Naruto Trading Card Game our little orange ninja has become famous for another deadly technique, the Rasengan. This jutsu has only been mastered by two other ninja in the history of the Naruto TCG, Jiraiya and the Fourth Hokage himself, so that should give you an idea of it's immense power, and with the TCG in its current state it is now possible to build a theme deck around this powerful jutsu and those that can harness its power.

Turn 0

Naruto Uzumaki (Desperate Pursuit) x3
Sakura Haruno (A Double Personality) x3
Sasuke Uchiha (Analysis of Competition) x2

Here you have Naruto who has a really good effect for gaining late game battle rewards, and the opportunity to lure an opposing team into a trap, plus he has Growth + Clone Status which equals pain for an opponent. Sakura is really good at drawing cards you'll need later on, and making sure that you have your Rasengan and the people to use it. Sasuke of course is still the best turn 0 ninja around in terms of offensive and defensive capabilities.

Turn 1

Rock Lee (High Speed Move) x2
Temari (Wind Scythe) x2
Shikamaru Nara (Formation) x1

Naruto Uzumaki and Sakura Haruno (Precious Friend) x2

Rock Lee is just a crazy ninja with his effects making him almost invincible and his jutsu unstoppable. Temari is thrown in for support and hand manipulation while Shikamaru will throw his support to a team and stop a head ninjas power. The great thing about this decks turn 1 slot is the Naruto Sakura platoon. They gain a +1 coin when they come into play for every 2 cards in your hand. This number can easily rack up quickly, and they have the clone status attribute which means this platoon will act like another ninja to use the Rasengan.

Turn 2

Iruka (Reward) x2
Sasuke Uchiha (Thirst for Power) x1
