Splinter’s Ninja’s by user8889267

Format: Commander

Commander: Splinter, Radical Rat

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This Esper Ninja deck is built to turn unblockable one-drops into repeated Ninjutsu activations while Splinter, Radical Rat doubles every Ninja-triggered effect. The hidden pillar is Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow: once she and Splinter line up, each attacker drains the table twice from the top card while Ingenious Infiltrator refills. Secondary paths use Higure and Splinter's Technique to tutor, Kaito planeswalkers to filter, and copy effects (Mist-Syndicate Naga, Auton Soldier, Thousand-Faced Shadow) to multiply triggers. The deck wins through combat-damage value and table-wide life loss rather than a single combo, using sneak instant tricks for removal and board development.
