Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Satoru Umezawa turns low-cost unblockable creatures into devastating win conditions by granting every creature in hand a four-mana ninjutsu ability. The primary game plan deploys evasive threats like Slither Blade and Changeling Outcast on early turns, casts Satoru, and immediately ninjutsus game-ending threats into combat unblocked. Top cheat targets include Blightsteel Colossus for lethal one-shot infect damage, Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur to strip opponents of resources, and Archon of Cruelty to create insurmountable board advantage. Supported by cheap countermagic, targeted removal, and Coastal Piracy draw engines, the deck rapidly digs for high-impact finishers and overwhelms the table through relentless combat pressure.
