haste + ETB this turn + ninjas. Goro-Goro and Satoru, Ognis, the Dragon's Lash, Deathleaper, Terror Weapon, Samut, Vizier of Naktamun, Higure, the Still Wind... Kind of a legendary subtheme, there. The commander options are a partner set or Yidris, Maelstrom Wielder, unless somehow finds a spot in there.

Some thoughts:

  • 18 lands is extremely low, its a number low-enough to expect seeing a lot of 1-land hands and having to mulligan. Furthermore, you’ll have no chance of casting Higure, the Still Wind or Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni for either their regular or ninjitsu costs. Personally i’d think you’d need at least 23-24 lands.

  • you need killspells. Fatal Push feels like a must here to keep your opponent in-check. In general I think you’re running too many creatures and too little interaction.

  • I’m very skeptical of Aether Vial in a deck where you’ll often be wanting to Ninjitsu creatures into play instead of using the Vial. Personally I think the deck would be better without this card.

I feel your pain... I've spent a lot of time brewing ninjutsu decks... I have never been able to find success with the deck but i can share some synergies that DID WORK WELL but not exactly anything that put the deck over-the-top....closing out games is just tough.

I wish you the best of luck and hope you can find the secret sauce to make ninjas work!

Diversity Thanks for the comment! I replaced Training Grounds with Heartstone and as far as unblockables go I know its a tad low but there are a few flyers and Higure, the Still Wind as well as Kaito Shizuki to kinda make up for it. Though I do want to find some space for more. Once again thanks for the comment!!

CasualCucumber on Favorite color or color combination?

When I started playing my two first decks were and . I loved black, no question. But somehow has moved into my favourite colour without me even knowing. I already own a mono blue deck and I want to build two more with Higure, the Still Wind and Blind Seer . I guess I have an addiction to blue now even though I hate playing counter spells as removal.

This deck performs very well with some decently large deficiencies. I think you need to cut some weaker cards (sorceries and creatures mostly) and add in more Ninjas and ninja synergies.

Cards to Cut: Creatures: Definite cuts are Jeskai Infiltrator, but I'd also heavily consider trimming Dark Impostor, Deathcult Rogue, Etrata, the Silencer, and Nezumi Cutthroat.

Sorceries: Definitely cut Hour of Eternity, Kefnet's Last Word, Paranoid Delusions and consider trimming Ghostform, Slip Through Space, or Stealth Mission.

Artifacts, Enchantments, Instants, Planeswalkers, and Lands: I would definitely cut Briber's Purse, Fatal Push, and Vraska, Scheming Gorgon while also giving thought to the merits of including Skygames, Bontu's Monument, Forge of Heroes, Unclaimed Territory, and of, or at least the Amonkhet, cycling lands.

The cards I have recommended are either slow, have low to zero synergy with the rest of the deck, or are typically weak in commander.

Cards to Add Creatures: Ninjas, ninjas, and more ninjas (plus some cheaper unblockables for good measure). There are 19 Ninjas in mtg history (excluding changelings). You have 11 in this deck. I think you ought to have more. The cheapest are Mistblade Shinobi, Okiba-Gang Shinobi, Skullsnatcher, Throat Slitter, and Walker of Secret Ways. Higure, the Still Wind and Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni are both reasonable splurges in terms of powerful Ninjas to acquire. Now for other creatures to enable Ninjitsu. First off, I could have included Changeling Outcast in the last section since it is also a Ninja and you should absolutely be running it in here. Other small unblockables for you to Ninjitsu into are Gudul Lurker, Slither Blade, Tormented Soul, Faerie Seer, Mothdust Changeling, Gingerbrute, Dimir Infiltrator, Baleful Strix, Invisible Stalker, Augury Owl, Sage Owl, Spire Owl, and Cloud of Faeries. All of these cards are less than 3 cmc, and are either entirely unblockable or have good etb/ltb or dealing combat damage synergy (and are mostly pretty cheap too). I'd recommend adding at least 3 or 4 of them in addition to the above ninjas.

Other cards: This section is mostly for general things that you could do to make this deck more consistent and enjoyable to pilot, but there are a couple specific synergies I think you're missing out on. They're both pretty intertwined so I'll just address them together. I think you could be putting in a few more cards that are good to reveal off of Yuriko's trigger and ways to manipulate the top of your library so you get those card when they are most impactful. I am referring to cards like Treasure Cruise, Sibsig Muckdraggers, Temporal Trespass, Dig Through Time, Draco, Consign / Oblivion, Murderous Cut, Far / Away, Curtains' Call, Into the Story, Submerge, Commandeer, Commit / Memory, Discovery / Dispersal, Rags / Riches, In Garruk's Wake, and any other high cost card that has an alternate mana cost, mana reducing ability, split card, or is a high impact card. Then you could also throw in a few ways to manipulate the top of your library like Brainstorm, Ponder, Serum Visions, Tamiyo's Epiphany, and Crystal Ball. The only other synegystic thing you could put in here is making your other creatures Ninjas as well with Conspiracy, Xenograft, Arcane Adaptation, and Amorphous Axe.

Otherwise, you could probably add in some more ramp (Sol Ring, Mind Stone, Star Compass, etc.), card draw (see cantrips above and Last Thoughts), board wipes (could probably replace Bontu's Last Reckoning with some of the ones from the last section or just add those ones or some other good boardwipes) and spot removal or counterspells (I don't see a lot of good ways to deal w/ non-creature permanents in here).

I would add a set of unblockable blue one-drops like Slither Blade to make sure that you can ninjustu early. If you've got the cash, other good ninjas include Higure, the Still Wind , Ninja of the Deep Hours , and Throat Slitter . I would also think you'd want some removal in there somewhere.
