Greetings ALL,Behold, I present to you Sygg, leader of my ninja clan. When I first thought of this deck, i wanted ninjas. I did not want to create the classic milling blue/black deck. So the purpose of this deck is to devastate my opponent(s) through the use of field and hand trickery, ensuring they lose life to maximize Sygg's effect, and of course, having fun doing it all.

<> Ninjas <> Are great, their ninjutsu ability evades most counters and surprises opponents. Their versatility makes using them a lot more fun and complicated for my opponents.

<> Unblockables <> To ensure my ninjas are played and get their effects, I put in a few unblockable creatures as well as other spells and lands, such as Rogue's Passage, Creeping Tar Pit, Aqueous Form, Dauthi Embrace, Whispersilk Cloak, Hidden Strings and of course Thassa, God of the seas.

<> Small Combos <> A few using my ninjas are awesome to use since they have 'enter the battlefield" triggers such as Soulsworn Spirit, Kathari Remnant, Solemn Simulacrum, and icefall dragon. Also, if your creatures are not blocked because I put them asleep or bounce them, Inkfathom Witch will have a field day using his ability.

<> Manipulations <> Besides some of the spells I mentioned above already and my ninjas, other spells, mostly enchantments has also prove to make things more difficult for my opponents to combat against you, such as Quiet Contemplation, Soul Barrier, Opposition (if you have enough creatures or tokens, you can keep your opponent's mana locked down), Equilibrium, Frozen AEther, and even Reality Strobe.

Overall, I really enjoy using this deck. I'm not a big fan in using counters or spells that steals since I'm more of a aggro player, but I try to express my theme of ninjas.

Thank you for checking out my deck, don't forget to leave any comments or suggestions and I hope to have insired or aided you in creating your own Ninja deck.
