But they are not in the same team. I'm sure that passive only applies to 1 team.

Same goes with healing tips, applies only 1 team, not across the field.

Only a few buffs go cross team, like barriers, pains, konan and playboy. You will notice all of those have the key world "field" in their skill description.

Well to quote you both, you'll notice there is no "field" denominator in the description.

Merely stating that every unit in the same row -

If there is no "field" keyword, then it is by default team only.

Ok, so let's imagine in GNW. Your team and your friend teams organise a perfect row to get Breeze's passive.

That would be too broken, wouldn't it?
Therefore to prevent that it only applies to 1 team.

That's hardly the reason, 3 of the same pain, for example, doesn't stack. In fact, the only thing that the same "buff" stack is shield, no stat boost of the same sort stack, even if they are field wide.
If that weren't the case, lightning main with generator talent and lightning boost along with shurado, chikusodo and tendo x 3 would be devastating...

Fact of the matter is, global stuff are all at a premium. So your cheap, free farm-able stuff simply aren't going to have awesome skills, active or passive. The closest thing you gonna get in form of an exception would be active barriers, the only totally free global effect (well, front line sweep sort do that to, but considering it usually have a limit of 3, it ain't really..)

A friend told me that in Chinese the tooltip says "row in your team". So, again, is a bad translation, otherwise would make a lot of sense that was cross team.

*eye rolls* smh i was only talking about 1 Breeze here.
the hell u r rambling on non-sense
keep in the topic.

Yours would be a good point if right now anbu special tactics from mb and the scarlet blaze talentthat gives ninjutsu (forgot the name) didn't work that way.

Well Broken or Not Broken, if its only affecting one Row, in its entirety, it would not be the end of the world. That is what "Debuffs" are for. Temari or whomever else decides to rip apart - Nagato
