Have you considered Moonblade Shinobi or Distant Melody?

Fallen Shinobi might be worth a slot. Most of the MH1 ninjas are worth a look. Ingenious Infiltrator - Throatseeker - Phantom Ninja - Moonblade Shinobi - Mist-Syndicate Naga
Dream Cache and Brainstorm are some of the only ways in the whole game to put cards in hand on top of your library. Worth noting at the very least.

Just curious if you've updated this any time recently. Modern Horizons gave so many new ninjas that gave the deck a new direction. Replacing Bident of Thassa with Ingenious Infiltrator becomes the natural thing to do, and there's so many great new cards including Moonblade Shinobi , Mist-Syndicate Naga , and Fallen Shinobi that you'd ideally really want.

Thanks for your suggestions, BrassLord! I used several of them. Others I did not use but inspired me to find similar (in my mind) cards to add. (For example, I chose Spell Pierce over Counterspell because of the CMC.) A few suggestions are just too pricey right now, but I added them to the maybeboard for future reference.
What do you think of the deck now? Beyond any general comments you might have, do you think that including Moonblade Shinobi justifies removing some of my supporting creatures ( Ornithopter , Changeling Outcast , Tormented Soul )?

Questionblock That's another tough call!
I used to play Moonblade Shinobi in Mist-Syndicate Naga's place. In the earlier days of this deck, I played more ninjas with expensive ninjutsu costs like Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni and Okiba-Gang Shinobi, and I also had more "turn everything into ninjas" cards like Xenograft and Conspiracy. So I liked Moonblade Shinobi better because I could get use out of every 1/1 flyer that it created.
Eventually I ended up cutting those cards to increase the speed and overall competitiveness of the deck. Currently I only have 9 ninjas with ninjutsu (other than Yuriko herself) and half as many "turn everything into ninjas" cards. Now I have less ways to utilize Moonblade Shinobi's tokens, so I'd rather make more ninjas with Mist-Syndicate Naga.
So, it probably comes down what your Yuriko deck looks like. I hope that helps!!

azja Thanks for responding so quick!
How about Moonblade Shinobi for Mist-Syndicate Naga? It has the same ninjitsu cost, deals 1 more damage of Yuriko and creates 1/1 flyers that can go through easier.
What's your opinion on those two cards?

Also, forgot to mention that Moonblade Shinobi seems like it would be the best one of the new set, since it makes more dudes to bring in more Ninja's! Talk about value
