New Untitled Deck by Sabre

Format: Commander

Commander: Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This is a turbo-ninja tempo/drain deck built around Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow. The engine is the commander ninjutsu line: drop a one-mana unblockable creature, then ninjutsu Yuriko in from the command zone for only {U}{B} on turn two, and convert every successful Ninja hit into a draw plus a table-wide life loss equal to the revealed card's mana value. To exploit that, the deck packs a dozen-plus high-mana-value spells it is happy to flip but rarely needs to cast - Scion of Draco, Shadow of Mortality, Temporal Trespass, Dig Through Time, Treasure Cruise - and a suite of top-deck manipulation (Brainstorm, Preordain, Faerie Seer, Lim-Dul's Vault, Scheming Symmetry, Mystic Sanctuary) to aim those flips. A dense instant-speed counterspell suite protects the engine, the extra-turn pair Temporal Mastery/Temporal Trespass chains additional drains, and the alternate win is a compact Thassa's Oracle + Demonic Consultation line.
