Expert Analysis & Strategy

Strategic Overview

Carina (ST05-005) is a 2-cost, 3000 power Character with a 1000 counter. Her potent [Activate:Main] [Once Per Turn] You may rest this Character and trash 1 "FILM" type card from your hand: If your opponent has more DON!! cards on their field than you, add 2 DON!! cards from your DON!! deck and rest them effect makes her an excellent catch-up ramp tool.

Key Strategic Synergies

  • FILM Type Cards: Carina requires trashing a "FILM" card, making her an indispensable part of "FILM" themed Purple decks, especially alongside Uta (OP02-067 Leader).
  • DON!!-hungry Leaders/Characters: Similar to other Purple ramp cards, she provides vital DON!! for playing high-cost threats and activating Leader abilities.
  • Uta (OP02-067 Leader): The primary "FILM" Leader, Uta benefits immensely from Carina's ramp to fuel her own powerful effects and quickly bring out other "FILM" characters like Douglas Bullet (ST05-004).

💡 Pro Strategy Tip

Always consider playing Carina when your opponent has ramped significantly, or if you anticipate needing a burst of DON!! to catch up. Ensure you have "FILM" cards in hand to discard. Don't play her if you're already ahead on DON!! or can't activate her.

Best In Decks: Purple/Yellow Uta (OP02), Purple Eustass "Captain" Kid (ST05 Film version), other "FILM" focused Purple decks.
How to Counter: Her ability is conditional. Maintain a lower DON!! count than your opponent if possible, or prioritize removing her before she can activate her effect. As a 3000 power character, she's very easy to KO.
