Ruthless Onslaught
Strategy
0GC
Battle: Choose your performing Personality: The next time this battle another player’s Battle action would target one of your cards, it targets the performer, if legal. If he has 7 or more base Force, you may take an additional Battle action (after this action ends).
Hida Kaiji leapt from the tower, plummeting nearly one hundred feet to attack the things that had emerged from the jungle. He landed unharmed. His battle cry, his comrades knew, was as much anguish over his survival as rage.

Hmm not sure how I feel about this. It seems like a retroactive redirect where you lose tempo for awhile to only get it back later. It doesn't seem to do enough for a proactive action and not enough benefit to qualify as meta.

[Hida Zyvuun]

Well, with 7 base force, you don't lose any tempo at all. It's pretty nice for a HotF or BT deck. Pretty garbage for everything else.

I looked through most of the cards of SoD and this is about the only support that berserker got(fate wise... maybe wide valley???). i like the redirect but im not sure if i wanted more things to protect my zerkers.... Things are starting to look more and more Janky with power cards going to many different themes...

Well, I'm thinking Bakishi could play this, take an additional action to kill something, and then react, now the next action is targeting him, and getting negated.

[Hida Keikan]

the wording is killing me. Can someone explain this one?

[Kaiu Genji]

Here I have Hida Bushotsu, 7F, who is dishonored.
Here I have Kaiu Watsuki, 3F.



All can be the performers of this action. None have to be unbowed (hooray)

If I choose the Kaiu as the performer, my action ends there, and the next action my opponent takes must target Kaiu Watsuki if legal. If, for instance, he says "I play Relentless Conviction, and this can only target dishonored peeps, so I must target Bushotsu." If this occurs, sucks to be me, my action is wasted, and his action goes through.

If I use Bushotsu as the performer, I get to take an additional action.

Does that make sense?

[Hida Keikan]

Thanks Dan. That makes total sense now.

[Hida Vinnu]

This + Unstoppable Strike as an additional action = PROFIT!
