Deck discussion for Night of the Million Zillion Ninjas

-2 Neko-Te (Inferior quality than Quietus Spike)
-1 Shuriken (Bad all-around quality card)
-1 Walker of Secret Ways (Mistblade Shinobi is generally far more useful)
-2 Assassinate (Strictly lower quality than Murder)
-3 Dimir Infiltrator (Inferior quality than Ornithopter)
-1 Whispersilk Cloak (Costs too much to re-equip all the time)
-2 Gigadrowse (Removal of two Assassinate spells makes this less useful)

+4 Quietus Spike (This card is strongest the earlier its used, so you need four)
+3 Mistblade Shinobi (One of the greatest ninja in the game)
+2 Ornithopter (Brings the Mistblade Shinobi out on turn 2, locking opponent down)
+1 Throat Slitter (Offers more card advantage than Assassinate)
+2 Murder (Strictly higher quality than Assassinate)

Here are my rationale's, regardless I'll be making a few changes.

Neko-Te: They permanently tap creatures they come in contact with which I can then use for Tamiyo's purposes to give me an card drawing engine.
Shuriken: Can be shotgunned off all the ninja on the board which might otherwise not be doing anything.
Walker of Secret Ways: Wanted a few more reliable ways to get ninja back into my hand.
Assassinate: Requires only 1 black mana and with all my tapping abilities I figured it would be easier to cast.
Dimir Infiltrator: Unblockable all the time even against fliers. Also can be transmuted into Umezawa's Jitte.
Whispersilk Cloak: Wanted this to help protect important creatures.
Gigadrowse, There to assist with Tamiyo and make it easier for my creatures to get through.

Tamiyo is one card, you should lose the focus on the whole tapping aspect.

I already have, though I kept some tapping cards to help get my creatures through.

I was referring to the reasons you cited for keeping the Neko-Te and Assassinate cards.

If you don't like Murder, you could always use Dismember.
