About Hafesie Expertise I can answer deck builds. I usually use "Outside the Box" decks, or odd/weird Decks. Card rulings are not my specialty, but I can do some rulings. Please be warned: If you ask me to do a ruling, I will answer the question through sources from the Naruto Website or other websites if I do not know the answer, so I take no credit for the answer. If you are new to the game, I can no longer give you an extensive guide as I lost my External Hard Drive which had everything naruto wise on it (I know, sounds like Dog ate my homework but it is true). Instead, feel free to ask me individual questions on parts you don't understand, or if you are completely new to the game, just got a deck, you can ask me for a basic guide, which isn't really much better than the rulebook anyway, however.

Experience Play at local tourney every week I can. No Chunin/Jonin Tourneys yet around where I live, so can't really enter.

Question QUESTION: with the new naruto cards that have come out, how should i build a Gaara Theme Deck p.s. i am trying to get sand cocoon for the drop 5 gaara
ANSWER: Obviously, Bandai isn't telling you guys the whole picture. In Aus, Only curse stuff an before can be used. Very very crud. So I really don't know much about ER cards, but I can help...kinda.
Gaara of the Desert [AutoGuard]
This card can be useful if you do not mind injuring your own ninja (either their stats are the same or you can heal them some way). A useful combo is to injure all your ninja and then use "Tide of the Deadly Combat", which injures all healthy ninja and vice versa. You can gain a massive advantage that way (well...sorta). And you can also use The Fourth Hokage to heal as well. Temari along with Gaara [AutoGuard] can be a great combo, in case Gaara is injured.
Gaara [Overflowing Madness]
A great card for tempo decks. Again, you can heal your ninja with "Tides of the Deadly Combat". It can also help if you don't win in the first 5 or so turns and get Jonin Swarmed. "Tides of Deadly Combat+Gaara", that is.
Gaara [Sand Barrier]
With people playing Choji Formation (not Formation!!), this card can't be injured. Nice card in some decks, almost pointless in others.
Gaara [Conservation]
Yay! You can get Sand Cacoon, or a BR. A Multi-situation Gaara.
That is all I can help you with. Hope that helped...and ignore the next sentence.

Answer I am not an expert on wind, but I do see some things missing from the deck.
Sasuke AoC OR Sasuke No.1 Rookie are staples in most decks, including wind decks. Your 0 drops are decent, but I suggest you take out the Gaara Alone.
I do not quite like the idea of the puppets. Temari [Wind Scythe] is also quite an average card. Decent 1 Drops are Sakura Haruno [Determination] and Temari [Violent Temper] for some hand control.
You need Hayate DaP to negate missions. DaP is really a staple as well.
Your Jonin+ look fine, But maybe Tsunade and Kurenai? A nice 8/1 with Support From Kurenai and Temari.....nice team (hey a decent all female team too).
Your Jutsu should not have anymore puppet stuff now that there are no puppet ninjas. I can't really see too many changes, except for maybe some support for more than just Gaara, with all that sand stuff the other ninja could feel rejected (you know what I mean)
One morning should be in 2 or 3. A possibility would be "Left Behind" (common in path) in combination with "Tasteless and Odourless Drug", which is a jutsu. But this is a decent deck based around Gaara.
And No, there are 4 types of Gaara.
Gaara of the Desert
Baby Gaara
Gaara Possessed mode
Garra Alone
There was a typo in one of those to make it the same as "Gaara of the Desert", but it was rectified...I think. So you can really have 12 gaara if you wish.
