Commander: Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow is a single-faced commander, and the deck is built entirely around her ninjutsu and combat-damage trigger. Primary plan: play a 1-mana unblockable creature, ninjutsu Yuriko into combat by turn two, then use top-deck manipulation to turn every Ninja hit into card draw and table-wide life loss. Secondary plan is an instant-win Thassa's Oracle + Demonic Consultation package, with Doomsday as a third setup line, all supported by a dense countermagic suite. Sakashima of a Thousand Faces can act as a hidden copy of Yuriko, doubling triggers, while Kaito, Bane of Nightmares supplies filtering and pressure. Without Yuriko, the deck shifts to combo-control, but her engine remains the main win driver.
