Deck discussion for Ninjutsu

Looks good, did you consider Deathcult Rogue?
I would also replace Watery Grave with a Temple of Deceit and the Silent-Blade Oni with whatever just to make this deck Modern compatible.
Oh, and Cload and dagger is a nice card for in this deck too.

Hey, thanks for your comment :)

I have considered Deathcult Rogue but I think I would prefer to keep the unblockable creatures no higher than 2 CMC so as to have them come down early and have them do their thing.

My playgroup is pretty much of the Legacy format thus Modern legality is not a concern for me. In consequence Silent-Blade Oni should make for some fun times in all the multiplayer games we play (especially with the 12 bounce sources in the deck to grab whatever juicy creature they may have in play).

I have also considered Cloak and Dagger but since my game plan revolves around bringing in Ninjas to strike instead of my rogues I don't believe I could make optimal use out of the Equipment (it comes down as early as turn 2 and wouldn't be able to contribute until as early as turn 4 since a turn 3 Ninjutsu creature would not be equipped as it is not a rogue).

Land-wise I just set up whatever lands I have handy (I know if I want the best performance a well constructed mana base is important, but as is I'm certain it could work well enough for my needs).

That would be my reasoning for my choices. Do you agree/disagree with anything I mentioned?

Nope, I get it that you have already playtested this deck before so if you say it works and not being Modern is fine then this deck is good in my opinion.

Well that's the thing though, it's all theorycrafting at this point. I only just put this together on here this morning.
I have yet to proxy it up and test it.

That's kind of why I emphasize my thought process behind the choices more than just saying that it works for me :)

Update: I did end up swapping the Dimir Infiltrators with Inkfathom Infiltrators (same CMC with less strict mana requirements and has 1 extra power).

Inkfathom Infiltrator seems like a good swap indeed, I wish you luck with this deck!
By the way, you have the most gorgeous mana curve ever at the moment. :)

The mana curve was indeed quite a thing of beauty, though misleading with all the Ninjutsu and Prowl costs :-?
