Serenity is superior to the other gauge acceleration cards, since it charges 3 gauge instead of 2. And it can be converted into other types of advantage with Shiden and Tsukikage if it's a dead draw. Also, if you're running Shinobi Scrolls, which you should be, you can cast Graceful Serenity from its soul without losing hand advantage, and still gain the same amount of gauge that Dragonic Charge and its clones grant you, without losing a card. In testing the deck before Clear Serenity was spoiled, I found that I was stuck with a dead impact because I was a gauge short at times. Even using just Shiden's Cyber Analyze every turn will ensure that you never save up any extra gauge.
