Lots of cards revealed here because of the Japanese tournament for One Piece. I am loving the Sabo art. If the leak version is an alt then I'll take this art any day. Now we got Sabo the other secret rare of the set, although this version is only Revolutionary Army and doesn't have Dressrosa in his type. But this doesn't really matter as he's similar to OP05 Lucci, being able to KO 2 Characters in one go. That is a strong effect and you won't need much cost reducers to do so unlike Lucci. I don't know if I am able to fit this card in the Navy deck because of OP06 Gecko Moria, that card is also very good, but also cost 8 DONs to play. However, I guess I can run Sabo in my other builds that are more janky and less competitive.

More Pizza is just a searcher for Supernova. But I swear when people play this, I'll be like I want a pizza for lunch now. However for the Trigger effect, it is just draw a card. Then again, if it is activate main, we would be able to use 2 Supernova searchers in the deck to constantly search for the right cards.

I'm looking at the Asura card thinking I can use that card in G/Y Yamato since the only way to stop Yamato deadly attacks are Blockers, and if you rest those Blockers you can easily swing for easy damage. Personally for me there are plenty of Characters you can choose to rest if you don't mind sacrificing an extra attack just to stop a Blocker from activation.

Perfume Femur is like Diable Jambe, but cost 2 DONs instead of 1. I think the power up bonus will make a difference especially when you going for final push for game. The only downside is that it is Warlord specific instead of Kuja/Amazon Lily, but I will take this since we have plenty of high cost Warlord Characters we can use Perfume Femur on. The Trigger effect is just draw 1 card, but Blue do have some decent amount of draws already.

Claiming One Piece Event card, I really hate the long name since it's just a sentence. I don't know how this will work for Big Mom since currently we don't have any purple Leaders for Big Mom, only Animal Kingdom Pirates. We also don't have Animal Kingdom Pirates being Purple/Yellow Leader, so I won't be able to use the Big Mom Characters in the build, only Animal Kingdom Pirates. Just like More Pizza, it is just a search, but for 2 different Pirates deck. Maybe in future we could get a Purple Leader Big Mom.

I think we already got Tempest Kick in the card pool already, now we get a second one? It's not like Fire Fist where they are different type of Events. I can use this in Black decks where they focus on mill. Personally I like this one over Great Eruption if it isn't for 10 cards in trash requirements. Then again, I don't think it will be that difficult to get 10 cards in trash unless you are constantly returning cards back to deck.

Flame Split can be handy, the effect can be main/counter. For 1 DON, this can be handy in certain situations. I guess I could run both Flame Split and Asura in G/Y Yamato deck for the resting. I definitely need more of those rest mechanics so Yamato become even deadlier. I think, that Leader will be pretty strong in the meta for a while. Who knows.

Galaxy Wink will easily trigger the 7k requirements on some of the Revolutionary Army Characters. Not only that we can also reduce some of your opponent's Characters power. I might also run this in Belo Betty deck for more power, but it is also that I won't have to use her Leader's effect constantly discarding a card, or giving 2 DONs to certain Characters for certain effects.

Noronoro Beam, just a power reducer, can be very handy in some situation instead of just focusing on Counters number. The effect is for the turn instead of power, so any Characters/Leaders could potentially attack twice will have their power reduced by 1 card. But this is just a theory and I'm not sure if I need to use this yet.

Finally Manga Art Hancock. As someone who wants to build Kuja Pirates, I really want the art, but I don't want to spend a lot on the game since I have no locals to take the deck to. So I guess I'll buy the SR version of the card instead of focusing on the Manga Art.
