Rules Q&A
- Would Enchanted Evening cause lands to count as nonlands?
- Does Day's Undoing trigger Sphinx's Tutelage
- If I have multiple cards that increase the amount of cards I draw, do they all trigger at the same time?
- How Many Times Can Sphinx's Tutelage Trigger Off a Single Draw?
- Will Shifting Sky affect Sphinx's Tutelage?
Sphinx's Tutelage
Enchantment
Whenever you draw a card, target opponent puts the top two cards of his or her library into his or her graveyard. If they are both nonland cards that share a color, repeat this process.
: Draw a card, then discard a card.

One thought about Hullbreacher here is that it almost totally negates damage from Underworld Dreams and Sheoldred, the Apocalypse, and quickly gives Liliana's Caress and Waste Not nothing to do.
All these cards want the opponent to be continually drawing and discarding, which Hullbreacher shuts down. It works better as part of a lockdown prison or 8-rack deck alongside cards like Shrieking Affliction or The Rack.
It's still a viable card, and does good things with Sphinx's Tutelage and creates a lock with wheels in general, but I would move it to the sideboard or use it as part of a different deck. If nothing else, this deck should have a way to sacrifice it or get rid of it quickly when you have a bunch of the other payoff cards out.

Sphinx's Tutelage is better than psychic corrosion, IMO

During play-testing, I noticed this deck is relatively slow. In most tests, I couldn't cast anything meaningful before turn five. Not sure if this is an issue in your meta, but it would be in mine.
My advice would be to:
- Reduce the average CMC of your card-base. More than half of the cards you're using is CMC4 or more. Here are some nice mill-ideas that have a relatively low CMC (and are also cheap to obtain at vendors): Fractured Sanity, Glimpse the Unthinkable, Memory Erosion, Mind Funeral, Mind Grind, Psychic Corrosion, Sphinx's Tutelage.
- Include some more mana sources. Some ideas would include Dark Ritual, Dimir Signet, Realmbreaker, the Invasion Tree, Talisman of Dominance.
- Include some more zombie cards instead of most of your current creature base so that you can increase the synergy with regard to Scarab God's primary ability.
Good luck with the build.

The idea of combining ninjas and removal makes sense. However, I fail to see the connection between the ninjas and the deck's milling cards (which seems to be your main source of removal). If you're dedicated to combining ninjas and mill, I'd recommend adding cards that allow you to draw cards based on ninja's damaging players (examples include Bident of Thassa, Coastal Piracy and Reconnaissance Mission) and then using other cards to force mills based on your draws (Jace's Erasure, Psychic Corrosion and Sphinx's Tutelage).
If you're interested, I've built more of a toolbox ninja deck with the same commander: (Stealthy Interchangeables)

@wallisface: I'm just memeing. I thought it was a hilarious interaction. If The One Ring doesn't get banned in Modern, I'm seriously considering building a deck around it with Sphinx's Tutelage and Teferi's Tutelage.

I have a very important announcement to make:
Sphinx's Tutelage + The One Ring
That is all. Thank you.

Crap, I forgot Jace's Erasure, Sphinx's Tutelage & Teferi's Tutelage! Great stuff in this deck.

These are great suggestions SufferFromEDHD!
I've been trying Sakashima in place of Sphinx's Tutelage and I think I'm ready to make the leap. I was trying to keep lines active where my commander is out of play but I am still seeing turn 8 Thrumming Stone pull every Petitioner from the deck knocking out one or two players by milling 100-150 cards but not close the game. Let's lean more into threat and less into Resilience.
I'll try out some of the other suggestions too. Thank you for sharing!
