"Victory is reserved for those who are willing to pay it's price." - Sun Tzu

After building the mono-black deck with Toshiro Umezawa, which is currently my main deck, and then another with Isao, Enlightened Bushi due to seeing potential for an interesting voltron deck, I asked myself "what if I just go ahead and do a deck of each color with a Samurai as a commander?". With that in mind I searched (again) for all the mono-colored legendary Samurai to see which ones had potential for an interesting/unusual deck and Fumiko the Lowblood was my choice.

Her unique Bushido ability plus her second ability that force players to always attack gave me some ideas. I checked a few decks with her at the helm, but they never felt like they were actually built around her abilities, they were just "mono-red decks" with her as the commander, or had some disconnected theme. It took a while to come up with something that could work with some consistency, and eventually I came up with what you see.

The game plan is somewhat simple, turn the table into a bloody battlefield by producing tokens for everybody at the table, while also taking advantage of Fumiko's Bushido to either have a massive blocker, potentially blocking up to 2-3 creatures with Vanguard's Shield and/or Echo Circlet, but also when attacking and being blocked have a big hitter with the potential to kill with commander damage due to trample and/or cards like False Orders, Mark for Death, etc...

This is the first version of the deck, I still need to test it out and then see if the concept works, or what needs to be "polished" to eventually either upgrade it or just "toss it" into the Failed Experiments folder.

The win-cons available are:

• Regular combat damage;

• Commander damage, potentially;

• Infinite combat phases combo with Godo, Bandit Warlord + Helm of the Host ;

• One-shot potential with Angrath's Marauders + Heartless Hidetsugu .

Any suggestions to improve the deck are welcome.

Other decks with a mono-color samurai commander:

• Mono-Black - Victory or Seppuku

• Mono-Green - Musashi used 2 swords? Hold my sake!

• Mono-White - The Art of Self-defense
