This is the first deck in my series of Noble* format duel decks.

The theme of this deck is Ninjas.

Ninja rely on trickery and sabotage to get the job done. They may not be able to take on a samurai in a one on one fight, but if they do their job right they won't have to. The Samurai are all brawn and no brains, and that is their greatest failure.

Avoid, evade, stab your enemy in the back at precisely the right moment. That is how the ninja will defeat the Samurai.

Edit

I made a few small changes to this deck in the interest of balance.

Sai of the Shinobi - works perfectly with ninjutsu. It's a nice and cheap little buff to make my ninja's ping for just a bit more. The Ronin Warclub are a placeholder for two more Sai of the Shinobi.

I removed Walker of Secret Ways. She just wasn't pulling her weight as a ninja.

It would kill me to do it, but I might have to remove all, or at least some of the Kraken Hatchling. They are far to adept at blocking samurai. I would rather make the samurai deck strong enough that Kraken Hatchling isn't as big of a deal anymore, but this may have to happen for the sake of balance.
