Skill break kurenai as soon as possible and then you c*e this :

Kurenai Kankuro Puppet crow

Earth Main Gaara X

X X

Shield the crow puppet with kurenai's shield so it lasts till the start of round 2 at least. skillbroken kurenai can cause chaos on chase so kankuro's mystery should help you prevent an opponents attack by chase. Earth main uses double standard mystery and the Shelding standard.

Also you could try levelling up and getting GNW Kankuro for a more sturdy puppet.
