Commander: Jin Sakai, Ghost of Tsushima

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

An Esper (WUB) ninja/combat-damage deck built around Jin Sakai, Ghost of Tsushima. Jin's attack trigger draws cards and his Standoff/Ghost choice makes a lone attacker double-striking or unblockable, feeding a ninjutsu chain of high-value saboteurs. The deck's main path is repeated unblockable hits with Satoru Umezawa granting every creature ninjutsu, while Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow acts as a hidden commander and converts each ninja strike into table-wide life loss. A secondary axis pairs half-life effects (Virtus the Veiled, Quietus Spike, Unstoppable Slasher, Shredder) with Bloodletter of Aclazotz or Wound Reflection to remove opponents one at a time. The list is a flexible midrange-control build with strong interaction and several available kill lines.
