Ni Ni Ninjas by Drako91

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This is an Esper Ninja tribal midrange deck helmed by Splinter, Radical Rat, whose ability doubles triggered abilities of Ninjas you control and can grant unblockable. The plan is to deploy cheap unblockable or ninjutsu enablers, connect in combat, and snowball doubled damage triggers from payoffs like Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow, Ingenious Infiltrator, and Ninja of the Deep Hours. Token makers such as Endless Foot Assault and Dark Leo & Shredder flood the board while life-halving finishers (Shredder, Shadow Master, Dark Leo & Shredder) and Yuriko drains close games. Secondary value comes from ninjutsu cheating, clone effects (Sakashima of a Thousand Faces, Sakashima's Student), and recursion via Leonardo, Sewer Samurai and Ninja Teen. The deck wins through combat attrition and repeated trigger value rather than infinite combos.
