There is a LM passive that refresh the cd of a sword user's mystery if you kill someone with it (like a kisame's sharks or deidara's spiders). It's not a problem to lose a barrier if you can spam a 2 rounds chaos every turn for the first 5 rounds.

Also a pos 1 itachi susano could interrupt kisame turn 1 easily, preserving shisui's barrier.

Is this enough?

You are right. But this thread isn't about those teams you are citing, right?

It's about CF, Jinpachi, Deidara and Sharkisame. I don't see any genjutsu mirror passive there.

It's great that different teams have different counters, it's the reason why this game is still playable and the reason why they forced madara 5 kage out in CN, to provide a way to shutdown SB Ay.

Only reason you won is cause of your Wind Main Clones being there to prevent Han from baiting dodges. Otherwise it would had gone the other way around.

I wouldn't really call it a noob lineup. We are limited to use lineups from the ninjas that we have. I was also using that lineup before because it's the only viable team that I had. Once I got other ninjas like Edo Sasori, Jinpachi and Kushimaru, that's when I started using the Kushimaru blitz. When I finally pieced MM and Shisui, that's when I started using them. Again, we are limited to use lineups from the ninjas that we have unless we spend a lot in game which gives us easier access to ninjas. Calling them noobs just because they use this lineup would be, for me, just plainly and outright rude.

Don't need more initiative.

Say you're not running Clones.

I can just wait til Han baits out your dodges. Then break barrier with Roshi hitting Shisui/MM and whatever else. Hell I can even target your Wind Main to prevent its mystery from going off. Meanwhile Poison and Ignite is hitting your team rather hard.

I had people lose with your team because I was I playing intelligently and did what i stated above. That is why I said if you weren't running clones, you would had lost.
