Ama no Murakumo Sword (Textured Foil)

Strategic Overview

Ama no Murakumo Sword is an exceptionally efficient low-cost removal tool for Blue decks, particularly those built around the Navy engine. For just 2 DON!!, this event provides a powerful "two-for-one" trade potential by bottom-decking a 2-cost and a 1-cost character simultaneously. In a meta defined by powerful searchers and low-cost blockers, this card can single-handedly dismantle an opponent's early game momentum.

The strategic brilliance of this card lies in the "Bottom Deck" mechanic. By sending units to the bottom of the library, Blue bypasses the "On K.O." effects common in Green or Black decks and prevents trash-based recursion. This makes it the ultimate answer to sticky searchers like Nami, Bonney, or Pudding, ensuring they don't provide value upon leaving the field.

Key Strategic Synergies

• Sakazuki (OP05-041): The Leader's cost reduction allows this card to hit significantly larger targets than its text suggests.
• Tashigi (OP06-050): Searches for this event as a Navy-type card, providing consistency in your removal suite.
• Kuzan (OP02-121): Passive cost reduction turns Murakumo Sword into a mid-game board clear for much larger characters.
