About the game
What you do in a play session
If you are already a fan of Shinobi WAT-AAH! and think the ninja chaos needs a heavy hitter, the Saitenza promo card is exactly what your collection was missing. Originally distributed during the 2014 Cannes Fair, this card isn't just a pretty face—or rather, a scary panda face—in your deck. By adding the Yokai Panda Saitenza to your game deck, you introduce an element of surprise that can flip the table in the blink of an eye. The real kicker here is the card's entry effect: as soon as Saitenza hits the table, he wipes the slate clean by destroying all other Yokai currently in play. It is the perfect definition of 'making an entrance.' For those who enjoy aggressive strategies and love seeing the look on their opponents' faces when a play clears the board, this is an essential item. Since it is a promo card, it integrates seamlessly into the main deck, maintaining the fast-paced, fun dynamic that the base game already offers. Don't expect a deep rule change, but rather that extra spice that makes matches more memorable and unpredictable. If you play often, having Saitenza available is almost a must to keep the level of banter high. It is that piece which, when drawn at the right time, turns an imminent defeat into a triumphant comeback. Prepare to hear your friends complaining about your luck (or your cunning) as the Panda takes control of the board. It is a treat for collectors and a nightmare for anyone who had a table full of Yokai. Guaranteed fun for those who aren't afraid of a little gratuitous destruction between ninjas and mystical creatures.
