General description:
My favoritest Ninja ever! Yay.
Uses:
Best used in a mental power deck or for an Ino-Shika-Cho deck (like mine).
Strategies and game play:
*See combos*
Combos with other cards:
Put him on a team with Choji and Ino to make them a 9. Or use him with Ibiki/Suzume to force a mental battle with your opponent they may not be ready for
Ways to counteract it:
Try to remove him from the team he's on and knock him off early if he's giving you trouble
Strengths/Pros:
HE IS SMART! Mental 4 can be murderous in mental battles (if that's what you're doing, the total mental will probably be more than that *if youre smart*)
Weaknesses/Cons:
He's not very useful unless he's in one of the above decks. Honestly, his PTH and CUS counterparts are better in different decks
Variations:
Glitter and wavy holo like all other non-supers
Artwork and aesthetics:
I always love the art, and this being Shikamaru makes it better. It reflects his personality, I think
Don't run formation, IQ and Smarty are way better.
So what youre saying is dont use a Formation Shikamaru in an Ino-Shika-Cho deck, but use one of those 2 instead? Hm, lets see...I throw out one of the 2 with Formation Choji and Ino. Theyll be a 7 w/ IQ and a 6 if hes injured. Sounds like less than a 9 to me, which is what they would be with FORMATION Shikamaru. OR I use Smarty Pants instead. It would be an 8, unless growthed, then it would STILL be a 9, which just seems wasteful to just growth him when he wouldve been stronger before. Baka.
P.S. DID YOU NOT READ WHAT I PUT ABOUT THE WEAKNESSES?!
I just now thought of this: You gave my review a 1 b/c you dont think I should use this Shikamaru, in the deck he's best in, no less! That is BEYOND the levels of retarded. Such a stupid reason...XP
Oi, random, you have kicked my butt with this card so many times... he always saves you when I force you into mental battle... If I could fit earth cards into my deck, he would be in there! Him on a team with Suzume and Sakura! then I would win for a change! I mean... against you.

I posses the cards you have stated and never thought to use them. Your very imformative on an otherwise unnoticed card. And I agree, he is usesless in an other deck other than the formation theme.
regardless of whether or not he's good in a deck, he is WAY inferior to other shikas. ESPECIALLY formation. He's also inferior to flex, IQ, and Smarty Pants. Dude...if it's a formation themed deck, you'd probably be better of using formation... He works well with choji, and if you're sitting on ointment hinata you get to recycle choji's ability.
