Bartholomew Kuma (OP09-108_p2)

Cost 4 (Color Yellow): key point of the curve. Cost 4 cards define turns 3–5 in most competitive decks.

Counter value: +2,000. This card can be discarded from hand during the opponent's turn to add its defense value to any Character or Leader being attacked. A +2,000 Counter is the highest in the game for Character cards — valuable in any deck.

Uncommon — easy to obtain and a frequent core piece. Run up to 4 copies when the effect is consistent.
