This is a pretty traditional Blue Black Combo Deck with the exception of the Commander and the Ninja's. There's a lot of copy your stuff with Phyrexian Metamorph, Clone, and others, plus tutors, and cool combo interactions with my commander.

And on that note, let's talk about those combo's.

Deadeye Navigator + Palinchron + Exsanguinate // Vela the Night Clad // Blue Sun's Zenith Infinite Mana means infinite bounce, card draw, or kill potential. Since Vela says "Whenever her or a creature I control leaves the battlefield, each opponent loses 1 life." She has some cool interactions.

Sun Quan, Lord of Wu + Creatures. Let's get real here, as if Intimidate wasn't good enough on all my creatures, now I can give them Horsemanship, and very few people run that, so essentially I can beat your face every turn with ever growing creatures.

Oona, Queen of the Fae Mass Removal when I have Poli and Deadeye out.

There's lots of cool cards that can take your stuff, copy your stuff, and generally wreck. Tips would be greatly appreciated!
