Commander: Satoru Umezawa

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This Dimir Ninja deck uses Satoru Umezawa to turn every creature into a ninjutsu threat. You attack with unblockable 1-drops, then swap them for large creatures at a discount while Satoru filters the top three cards each turn. The primary win is combat damage from cheated threats like Blightsteel Colossus and Lord of the Void, supported by continuous card draw from Ninja damage triggers. Secondary paths steal opponents' cards with Fallen Shinobi and Silent-Blade Oni or assemble a Peregrine Drake loop with Silver-Fur Master and Thousand-Faced Shadow for infinite mana. Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow acts as a hidden commander, rewarding every Ninja hit with extra cards and life loss.
