Rules Q&A
- Q: If I use Sly deceiver to copy Ninube Shiho's ability to Goju Genin (the Goju Sawaki spawn), will the cost condition prevent him from performing the action since he cannot be included in decks?
A: Yes, the cost will prevent a created Ninja from Goju Sawaki's ability from performing a copy of Shiho's action.
However, not for the exact reasons you think, I should be clear. The text "May not be included in decks" is a construction limitation, so that you realize it is a proxy-card and not a card with which you can build your deck. But the fact is that any sort of representation can be used for a created card, from a penny to a slip of paper. That is why the rule exists that if a created card ever leaves play, it is removed from the game. And it is that rule which prevents the cost being paid.
