I found this commander randomly browsing videos for C18 and she grabbed my attention immediately. Her abilities had massive potential and ninjas are awesome so I've put together my own version of a Yuriko deck, largely based on a budget deck build I found.

I have a couple goals I wish to accomplish with this deck:

• A tribal theme of Ninjas and Rogues
• Using unblockable creatures and making creatures unblockable to get value out of ninjutsu
• Bounce effects capable of protecting my ninjas and allowing for more surprise attacks
• Utilize Yuriko's ability as one of the deck's main win-cons, featuring high CMC spells with alternate costs
• Top deck manipulation to increase the potency of Yuriko's ability

This is a different kind of deck to what I normally build, one based on being aggressive with creatures, and figuring out ways to utilize Yuriko and the themes of the deck to the fullest has been tricky. I'd love more eyes on the deck list to help me figure out what needs to be added and what needs to go. Particularly, I'm interested in other alternate win-cons that could fit the themes of the deck.

All suggestions are welcome, and thanks for stopping by!
