Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

This is the companion deck to Banzai_Samurai.
It has undergone significant playtesting within the confines of the local metagame of my friends and, while not unbeaten, fares well enough to remain among my favorite decks to play. Admittedly, Im a sucker for card draw.
Banzai_Samurai was designed to match this deck in relative power level and to provide even matches where plenty of tricks and twists win the day!

Please comment! View the two decks and compare!

the difference between ninjas and samurais is that ninjas stand a chance in constructed.

So true! Once upon a time cards that did one thing ok would be enough. Now it seems like each card must perform multiple functions at a cheap cost to compete. So samurai become antiquated along with killer bees, glorious anthem, fountain of youth and a multitude of other cards of yesteryear. Nevertheless, I think within the confines of the 2 decks mentioned here, the samurai remain competitive. Thanks for your comment!

You love Infiltration Lens, but aren't playing it in this deck?
Shame on you.
You have to know that Ninja of the Deep Hours loves Infiltration Lens. They are good friends!
You attack with Deep Hours/Lens and basically ask your opponent, "Do you want me to draw 1 or 2 cards?"
Good stuff.
Have not made a Ninjutsu deck...so, the mechanics might not work too well...you would know better than I.

Anyways, thought I would suggest that!

good call! May have to tweak this....
This deck is meant to be balanced to play vs Banzai_Samurai, which uses Slate of Ancestry for card draw.
Your analysis is good stuff though. Once the Ninja of the Deep Hours is in play, that infiltration lens would be dangerous!

These older decks are comprised of cards that I have in real life and have actually seen play. I really should update these decks here on the vault to fit their RL counterparts.

same with my EDH decks.
Thanks for the idea! +1 rep
