The initiative king with a strong weakness – kushimaru kuriarare

Name: kushimaru kuriarare

Tag: male, edo tensei, sword-user, hidden mist

Suggested use: main damage maker & control

Last essay about ninja I wrote many thing about hinata, and this ninja is ond of ninjas who can ignore hinata’s mystery and make damage by their attack, kushimaru.

Kushimaru do not have so much act in comic, but he is the most famous and the only master of the sword choto nuibari, (I do not admit that boruto is part of Naruto, never.) But in the game he just get a new life of a king of a period, for if you use him as your 1st set then you can easily make your enemy cannot use any mystery if you have the higher initiative. In the Chinese version kushimaru is one of the most popular 1st set ninja for a long period, when temari (swim suit) appears to break his age. But even now he is also a good 1st ninja for the players who is confident enough with their initiative.

Kushimaru is a ninja who can damage a line for an attack, and with jinpachi or pakura he can attack two times a round, which makes him can really cause great damage only with his attack. Comparing with this the damage of his mystery is kind of less, but the most important thing of his mystery is that he can make 2 enemies immobile, one target we can control and the other is random. This is a really powerful skill, cause for the chakra’s limit, and most main damage maker’s mystery cost 40 chakra, in the round 2 our enemy usually have only one mystery to use, even with a support ninja whose mystery do not need chakra (like sakura (great ninja war)) our enemy only can use two mystery, and if we’re lucky enough kushimaru can irrupt or control these two mystery users and make our enemy almost can do nothing in the most important second round. And also, not like some ninja’s mystery control the enemy by the chase attack start by their mystery, like water main, the big shark bomb cause knock down, and her own attack or kurenai’s chase attack can cause chaos to achieve the control, and of course this will stop by the ninja who cannot be chase attack, like Ay , gaara, konan (angel of god), and our kushimaru can just easily control them, even they have immune we can irrupt them , like roshi, kushina and so on.

Like you can see in the title, he is a king with a strong weakness, which is the bad action when our enemy has some ninja who can evade. Kushimaru can do nothing if our enemy can evade, like shisui, no matter how high you initiative is he cannot control shisui’s mysterty, but shisui can control him, for shisui can cancel all the shield and buff of enemy and then cause chaos. So this is the biggest weakness of this ninja, but out of this he is really a good ninja to be the 1st set of your line up.

So how to use him is just very clear and I summary these here:

1. use him as the 1st set, or throw him away. If not in the 1st set then he is just no use.

2. Give him a jinpachi munashi or pakura, if only attack once a round then he cannot afford the requirement of a good main damage maker.

3. Use light main, although his feature is wind so pakura can give him an extra attack, he can be used the best in the light main’s team, cause light main can provide him immune and life leach, when the wind main cannot.

4. Use this ninja sometimes auto is better than our control, cause if in the auto mode kushimaru will find the one who is use mystery and consider him as his mystery target, and this is really convenient to some enemy line ups. But sometimes if our enemy c*e several mysteries then we have to judge which is the most likely to be used and which is the most dangerous mysterty.

5. Initiative, initiative, initiative, the most important things repeat 3 times. Only with higher initiative can kushimaru be powerful. If your kushimaru control the enemy ninja after he use his mystery, then you’ll lose all your advantage of this ninja. So if you got a poor initiative, even you have him, give up then.

6. The other ninja except light main, kushimaru, jinpachi or pakura, could be some one can provide the barrier, like danzo, shisui. Can be someone to cancel debuff and provide buff, like sasori (edo tensei), also could be someone increase attack, like zabuza (edo tensei), but remember the key point, with this ninja the chase attack line must include kushimaru’s chase attack to help him get enough skill piont to use his mystery every round. If you cannot put his chase attack in the combo line and cannot mystery every round for this, then also give up this ninja. If you’re lucky enough kushimaru can create repulse, then with his chase attack he get one skill point. And with two times attack he get 2 * ½ = 1 skill point, together he can get 2 skill points a round, so that he c*e these 2 skill points to use his mystery next round. This happen times by times, he can mystery round by round. He is one of the most early mystery perpetual motion machine in this game

Here is two good line up of this ninja, one for those who have junpachi, one for those who have pakura.

light main, kushimaru, jinpachi, sasori

talent: this is a suggest one, you can change it like your mind, but just be sure that kushimaru c*e his chase attack to get skill point

summon:

another line up, change sasori to danzo, to increase a barrier and a control in chase attack combo line.

talent the same as above, summon is also the same. now show you the chase attack combo of this line up:

another line up series, for pakura, zabuza, kushimaru and light main:

in this line up zabuza can cause blind and attack 3 tiems the first round, pakura's chase attack can cause immobile, which is really useful.

talent:

this talent I suggest you not to change, cause this talent is really a good one.

summon:

chase attack combo line:

the reason I start to write this essay is that some one get a ameyuri ringo by seal ninjas, and then I find that there is such a powerful ninja that I did not say something about, hope this could help you, but seems its kind of late cause his breaker temari is coming now, hope this can help you sometimes.
