Setting this card is a minus (-1), setting a card into this card's soul is a minus, unless it's Ninja Arts, in which case, it's a wash (-1 or 0), using a gauge is a minus too (-.5, yes a gauge is worth HALF a card), then you get to draw one (+1).

So, it's actually advantage, just with a delay. It'll be (-1), then (-.5), then (0), then (+.5), then...

In other words, it's a wash the second time you use it. This IS assuming you put a Ninja Arts in though, of course, otherwise you (-.5) instead, which still may not be a bad thing as that may get you the draw you needed for victory.
