No, it's a condition, not a triggered ability. Triggered abilities use one of three phrases:

  1. Whenever (X happens), (do Y). Whenever Slate Street Ruffian becomes blocked, defending player discards a card.

  2. When (X happens), (do Y). When Merchant of Secrets enters the battlefield, draw a card.

  3. At the (beginning/end of X phase/step), (do Y). At the beginning of enchanted player's upkeep, Curse of the Pierced Heart deals one damage to that player.

If it doesn't use one of those formulas, it's not a triggered ability.

I know you're going with the ninja theme, but here are some ideas for budget/casual play if you need more unblockables to help with ninjusu.

Gingerbrute , for silly t1 haste attack and a pay 1 pseudo-unblockable.

Saprazzan Heir , she basically swings in for free every turn or else you're drawing 3.

Tolarian Entrancer , if he's blocked you gain control of the blocker, pseudo-unblockable.

Slate Street Ruffian , if he's blocked opp discards a card, pseudo-unblockable.

Escaped Null , gets bigger and gives you life if he's blocked, pseudo-unblockable.

if you put CMDR after the text for Sorin, Vengeful Bloodlord he will be labeled as the commander of the deck. Nightmare is a great card in this. you should put Slate Street Ruffian in your discard commander Vampire Opportunist is a bit expensive for that effect you should put a second planeswalker in here for Ignite the Beacon Ob Nixilis's Cruelty is on of the best cards printed in a long time!!! Wanderer's Strike is a bit much in mana cost for just an exile seeing as how you don't have much need for proliferate.
