All advices are welcome :-)

I want to build a UB ninja deck whitch I will play agains friends in pub so format is not important. We usualy dont use sideboards, so main board have to be as versatile as posible :-)

I decided to do not play any counter spells...

Idea of this deck is quite simply. Ninjas use unblockable creatures or creatures with shadow for surprising attacks to rule and control the battlefield.

At first I chose creatures which are early on the table and they are hardly blockable. I Found Invisible Stalker as perfect candidate because of his unblockable ability and hexproof. So 4 of them in the main. Than I thought about Nether Traitor and Thalakos Seer. Both of them have shadow and are quite usefull. Their weakness in this case is that both of them are "devoted" to one color (BB or UU). So 2 plus 2 to the main board. I decided to add 2 x Ornithopter and 2x Tormented Soul.= 12 x support creature... Wait! Why just only support? Lets give them chance to win the battle :-) That is why I added Quietus Spike. I own 2 of them, but it seems to me that there is place only for one of them :-(

13 x ninja

2 x Snap to put used ninja back to my hand or clean the way for himwhat else? Some edicts, Wash Out, Sleep (btw. quite funny card :-)

How enforce ninja in the play agains defenders? Cover of darkness is the answer. (but 2 of them or just one?)

Bident of Thassa helps with drawing a cards...

And the last but not the least: Diabolic Tutor...

Any Idea how to improve it?
