Deck overview

Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow uses cheap evasive creatures to create unblocked attackers, then enters through commander ninjutsu and turns every Ninja hit into card flow and life loss. The strongest ordinary starts deploy an attacker such as Changeling Outcast, Mist-Cloaked Herald, or Triton Shorestalker, followed by Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow and low-cost Ninjas. Ingenious Infiltrator, Silver-Fur Master, Moon-Circuit Hacker, and Mist-Syndicate Naga make later attacks generate more cards, bodies, and triggers. The deck can produce a serious must-answer board around turns 4–5, but it does not reliably convert that board into a three-player kill because damage, combat connections, and top-card mana values vary. Demonic Consultation plus Thassa's Oracle is a compact backup win, but access and protection are not dense enough to define the ordinary clock. Interaction is useful but narrow, and the deck has no sustained lock or major acceleration package.
