Always wanted to build a samurai deck but never found the right cards for it... So as compensation i know have this sweet samurai commander in as engine for my mono black spellslinger deck!

The deck is pretty powerfull as it is at the moment after plenty of playtesting!

You can control the board good with all the cheap removal spells and the recursion from Toshiro Umezawa.

Wincons in the deck are: Professor Onyx + Chain of Smog, keep getting magecraft hits from the chain to kill everyone in the table.

Toshiro Umezawa + Hatred for lethal commander damage.

A cheeky Tainted Strike on any big hitter can end any player.
