Add Insult to Injury is an EX phase tension card that offers a substantial support point ramp—particularly effective when run with Tsuruko Semba. In the current Tribe Nine meta, though, most enemies die too quickly to fully exploit its benefits. Furthermore, it doesn’t fit well with other characters at the moment, making it an extremely specialized pull if you’re not committed to piloting Tsuruko in longer fights. Future content featuring multi-wave elite encounters or extended boss battles could increase this card’s viability, but relying on future speculation alone may not justify spending your precious pulls right now.

Why Consider Pulling This Card?

  • High Support Point Ramp: Best used alongside Tsuruko Semba—especially when paired with Iroha (Passive 1, ideally T5)—to quickly build your Support Points.
  • Potential Future Utility: Could shine in tougher or longer fights if future updates introduce enemies that won’t drop to a single ultimate.
  • Highly Specialized Card: Offers excellent returns if you’re deeply invested in Tsuruko’s playstyle and team setup.

Final Verdict

Q: Should you pull for Add Insult to Injury?

A: Currently no, unless you’re fully committed to Tsuruko’s specialized build.

  • Don’t pull if you want a more universally applicable card or if you lack other crucial roster pieces (like Kazuki and his tension card).
  • Do pull if all of the following apply:
    1. You plan to main and personally pilot Tsuruko.
    2. You pair her with Iroha (Passive 1, T5 ideally) at all times.
    3. You already have Kazuki and his tension card.
    4. Ideally, you also have T1 Tsuruko in your kit.

Outside these very specific conditions, it’s more prudent to save your resources for broader, more immediately impactful characters or tension cards.
