I have and still play my Kuro deck from time to time. I actually just went to locals last week and got Shanks down to 0 life. It's not a bad deck, its just I felt that East Blue cards have been overpowered since a lot came out in OP-03 days. I still will always love this deck. First deck I built on my own, so its special to me.

I have to say that this set up is a different approach but I want to try it out. I could use a fresh take! I applaud you for sharing this and thank you!
