Descend upon Society once more with this Spiritual WIND series.

Strategic Summary:
The Shinobird Rituals have returned once more with the weight of the heaviest gale behind them. This spiritual strategy takes full advantage on two separate support streams – those of Spirits and those of Ritual monsters. For the Spirit side, Aratama and Nikitama ensure a steady stream of resources, while Shinobird Crane and Amano-Iwato offer the chance to rise above the opponent before they can get back on their feet. On the ritual side, Shinobaron Peacock and Shinobaroness Peacock offer the unique ability to bounce or spin up to 3 cards from your opponent’s field, giving you the opportunity to renew the gamestate afresh. Combine that with the ability to ritual summon during the opponent’s turn, such as with Renewal of the World or Urgent Ritual Art, and your opponent stands no chance. Lastly, my take on this strategy employs a hefty Kaiju engine, simply to ensure no field will be left standing. Embrace your inner spirit and ride the updraft to victory!
Friendly Reminder – Breath of Acclamation is a Ritual Spell according to the official card database, regardless of misprints released into the world.
