Sakura Haruno
[Control of Chakra]

written by bambam 

General description:
Ok, let's face it. Sakuras play absolutely no part in decks besides their effects. The 1 support is not nearly worth putting it in. This sakura, in my opinion, is one of the best late-game abilities out there.

Uses:
Ability.

Strategies and game play:
This card allows you to swap 2 cards in your chakra area with 2 cards in your discard pile. This is fantastic for multiple reasons (which i will list in the combos), but mainly for the chakra types. If you have some cruddy chakra (say, 2 earth in your chakra area for a fire deck) and you don't need generic, swap em! Any and all cards in your discard pile will now become possible chakra.

Combos with other cards:
Here are some cards that combo with this: (*=favorites)

Chakra Concentration (Swap a jutsu in your discard with some chakra, get that jutsu back!)
Great Ninja (Swap a ninja in your discard pile with some chakra, get that ninja back!)
Leaf Headband (Swap a genin ninja in your discard pile with some chakra, get that genin ninja back!)
*Naruto Uzumaki [Fragment of Power] (Use his effect when he's in your chakra area, then swap him back in. Basically, your trading 2 chakra for 3 chakra)
Spy of the Hidden Sound Village (I know no one uses this, but it's still a good combo to knock out the downside to this card)
Anbu [Revenge] (If you have a special jonin in your chakra that you charged, get him in your discard!)
Ayame (Get them noodles back to your deck )
Dead Soul Jutsu (Get a ninja into your discard pile)
Reliable Allies (Swap ninjas in your chakra with jutsus/mission/clients in your discard pile)
Sakura Blizzard Jutsu (Swap jutsus in your chakra with ninjas/mission/clients in your discard pile)
**Jiraiya [Instruction of the Hidden Technique] (Ok. Best combo in the game. Let's say you have a jutsu in your hand and a bunch of chakra. You use the jutsu. Then swap the jutsu that with some cards in your discard pile. Bring the jutsu back to your hand and repeat. Voila! Infinite jutsu!)

theres a bunch more with effects like these, but i didn't want to list them all.

Ways to counteract it:
Kill her or get rid of your chakra.

Strengths/Pros:
Combos

Weaknesses/Cons:
Not much support. Requires 2 chakra and 2 discarded cards.

Variations:
none. I don't know about the languages.

Artwork and aesthetics:
I'm not a big fan on the art work of this. It's not really related to her control of chakra.

Overall rating:
The combo master card. 10/10
