Deck discussion for Samurai Night Fever

First Round of test: Samurai went 0 for 5 against Fungus Among Us: #1 problem was Grim Affliction. It's in Fungus for the proliferation. The -1/-1 was unimportant effect that devastated the Moth Riders.
Changes
1) Indebted Samurai out in favor of Opal Eye - take damage away from target Samurai
2) Konda out in favor of General: cheaper & there's the whole +1/+1
3) Shizo Store house out in favor of basic land. Cost & I Never drew them
4) Shimmering grotto out in favor of basic land.
No real "sexy" Kamigawa special land. If I get over this foolish, self imposed "kamigawa only" I find/use some

NOTES:
1) Not loving the Hand / Hand cards. The 2 non-generic mana can prove difficult early in the game, but they are 2/2 vs others same cast cost being 1/1. The regenerating 1/1 Rat Samurai looks interesting....
2) The seven different samurai also a self imposed restriction. I's a movie based pun.
3) Four of a Legendary card like Toshiro usually earns a *tsk, tsk* but I REALLY want to make sure I draw one & get it in play early to recycle those "instants"
4) Trying to find more arcane for splice, but these seem to be in more decks
5) Based on my research here & on other sites, the best way to build a black/white Samurai dieck is to NOT build it. Opinions Red/White or better yet Mono White

HELP?????

Without 2nd play test:
Righteousness -3, Quiet Purity +3 (toss up - Etherial Haze?): Trying for more Arcane (splice)
General's Kabuto -2, No Dachi +1, Goryo Revenge +1: Like GK, just hard to draw when 2 in deck
