The Essence of Ninjitsu Art of Mosquito

This Loaner Deck focuses on Insect-type monsters and its ace monster, Number 2: Ninja Shadow Mosquito. Its effect makes it hard to defeat it in battle, and cause effect damage in retaliation.

Deck Description

"Number 2: Ninja Shadow Mosquito" has an effect that if either player's monster declares an attack, it deals damage to the opponent equal to the ATK of the monster on which a Hallucination Counter is placed. Aim for heavy damage by placing a Hallucination Counter on a powerful monster on the opponent's field by using "Ninjitsu Art of Mosquito Marching" or this card's effect, and then activating this effect repeatedly. "Giant Ballpark" is also compatible because it can deploy a large number of Insect-Type Normal Monsters while reducing battle damage to 0. Bring together smaller forces that can gradually weaken a great enemy to achieve victory.
