Go Ninja Go!

Format: Commander

Commander: Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow is the deck's engine and only real finisher: cheap unblockable creatures are sacrificed to commander ninjutsu, letting Yuriko enter tapped and attacking, then every Ninja damage flips high-mana-value cards to drain all opponents and draw. Secondary lines use Satoru Umezawa and Silver-Fur Master to discount/repeat ninjutsu, Kaito Shizuki for tokens and card quality, and Temporal Trespass/extra-turn effects to multiply combat triggers. There is no hidden commander; the list is all-in on Yuriko. It wins through cumulative ninja damage and Yuriko triggers rather than combo, so it must keep attacking and protect the commander from removal.
