=======================
Mostly awesome for the Yasuki deck, and a pain in the arse for all of our other decks except for maybe Berserkers. I expect to see this chained with Words Have Strength and Ikke's reaction, to make me lose 7 - 8 honour in one hit for most of my military decks.

Wow. Seppuku counts as an action that destroys a personality right? DAM!

[Boogiepop]

It feels like this is more of a Scorpion magistrate card.

[Kaiu Genji]

It feels like this is more of a bad card.

Fixed that for you

No room for this in decks, there is better punish for high honor clans.

[Yasuki Yamakori]

The fact that it's useless against low honour decks, is it's death knell.

[Boogiepop]

I know my friend would love this card, since he can range a dishonoured personality and make you lose honour, dishonour and then make you lose more honour.

Why do people play Astonishing Accusation if this is a bad card? : /

Why do people play Astonishing Accusation if this is a bad card? : /

Because it is less dependent on your opponent, and interaction.

that being said, Astonishing is bad for dishonor

I thought I was the only one who thought so. ^^;

[HidaHayabusa]

How is this even similar to Astonishing accusation?

This is triggered after a death, while Astonishing only checks for dishonor status. It also have a very nice reaction attached to it.

[Boogiepop]

I'm just measuring it in terms of how much giggles I would get were I to play against zero honour decks.
