I like Essence as well for the build. The art and flavor text are pretty great for him. I could run into issues with the [Counter] [Act], but my first build isn't an aggro build and I'm trying to see how well it can hold up in a battle of Attrition. So, for me, since I plan on placing spells and Oni's under my Item, I like the idea of being able to use it when I desire. It's basically treating the Item as a Shinobi Scroll's ability to cast Ninja Arts whenever they wish. I like the 3000 Defense as well, but am not sure if I can get this to work the way I want yet.

There really are great cards that can be used for the other Attributes:

Hiding Oni is pretty flexible since it doesn't require Oni Assassin Cards in the build. The only requirement is to send a soul from a card into the drop zone, and I have to believe they left the language like that with the intention of letting other builds in on the power there. Obviously,Demons Assassin, Jiorge is great for builds that lack Size 0's and since he is an Oni, it opens up Oni Only support. You could easily use Hiding Oni and Demons Assassin, Jiorge to a Blade Beast build, especially with their new Size 3. They need 0's anyway, and I usually use Shinobi with them, but I'm not sure if that will be necessary anymore.

Btw, we better be getting all of these promos. Even Essence is the first of it's kind for Katana World, regardless of whether it's just to use the "Destroy a Size 1", not the best that way, but still a first.
