Expert Analysis

Strategic Overview

Aramaki (OP06-043) is a massive defensive cornerstone for Blue Navy decks. As an 8-cost Blocker with 8000 power, he presents a significant hurdle for any aggressive deck. His true strength, however, lies in his [Activate:Main] ability. By trashing a card and removing a low-cost character, he can jump to a terrifying 11,000 power. This allows him to function as both an impenetrable wall and a game-ending attacker that can swing over almost any boss monster in the game.

Strategically, Aramaki excels in the late game where resource management is key. His ability to bottom-deck 2-cost characters is particularly effective against searchers or small blockers, effectively clearing the board while simultaneously buffing his own offensive capabilities.

Key Strategic Synergies

  • Rebecca (OP05-092): Aramaki can utilize the small characters Rebecca generates to fuel his power-up.
  • Sakazuki (OP05-041): The Leader's ability to cycle cards ensures you always have the right fodder.
  • Three Billion Worlds (OP04-056): Complements Aramaki's bottom-decking theme.

Pro Strategy Tip: Only activate Aramaki's power boost if it guarantees a KO on a high-value character or represents lethal. Trashing cards in Blue is a heavy cost.
