Bump because I'm still trying to improve this team

If you're high enough level to have Shurado, I think you should be running Poison Tai instead. Then you'll find that Kankuro's puppet will actually work as a tank in the front row, taking punishment for everything. His mystery isn't really your focus, because your main's Shark and Shino's Interrupt are. Besides, if the puppet goes down, in round 3, you have a new puppet anyway! More tanking, more more more!! :lol

But yeah, with Poison Tai, you're hitting them with stacks of poison all the * time, and that really adds up to a crapload of damage. People underestimate the Status Builds. Your only real issue will be Lightning Mains who run sword teams and get immune to status the first two turns.

I have a team for the poison stack which is Hidan, Gnw Kiba and Hinata. This team was more of a tankier control team and though I agree the poison stack is very powerful, in this team I find that the clone just helps a bit more, though I moved it around slightly so that they were all 1 space higher and Shirudo was in position 2 and the main in 3, that way I could cover shino with the clone and the slugs covered the middle and bottom, and the puppet behind.
