Budget Norika Yamazaki, the Poet Commander Deck

The deck runs a simple theme. We want to start off slow playing removal as needed while we build our mana base. Play politics while the game continues so as not to take to much heat early on. Once you are in the mid-late game, you can play offensive control with lots of removal via enchantments. Norika Yamazaki, the Poet is a cheap commander and so even if she gets targeted with removal her effects should still go off for you other Samurai and Warrior creatures which will help you outvalue your opponents with removal or buffs as needed. In the end, you will have to beat the down with an onslaught of your white creatures.

Feel free to leave feedback. I'm sure their is plenty of room for improvement. I can only pull in cards from my own inventory, which should be publicly viewable if you care to take a look.
