It's not hard to keep Shiden on the field if you have Body Replacement, Noroihikagami, and maybe 1 Right-hand and Back-hand. Shooting Star if ever they attack Shiden with a weapon.

Shinobi Scrolls basically expands your hand, as you'll get a draw from it, while still being able to use the Ninja Art in its soul.

Shiden, on the other hand, turns all of your Ninja Arts to Nice Ones if you don't use their effect for whatever reason. Say, perhaps, if Art of Item Blastings are clogging up your hand, or you don't need the extra Hades Fall, or you already have 4 Steel Balls in your hand, why not make one of them a Nice One?

Clear Serenity, in my opinion, is one of the best cards in Katana World. Being both a Ninja Art and Demon Way, it works well with both Skull Warriors and Ninjas. If you have perhaps somehow 2 Shinobi Scrolls on your field, you'll need the extra gauge. If you're at 0 gauge, and the opponent casts a strong spell, or attacks you with their item, or uses an impact that can be blocked, you can use Clear Serenity then follow up with your Secret Sword. Besides, minusing one to yourself won't matter much from the free plusses obtained from Shinobi Scrolls and Shiden, which brings us back to the first topic. That means they work well together to mantain a high hand and gauge.
