Ninjas have been a part of Magic: The Gathering since 2005 as part of the Kamigawa block, a series of three sets with cards inspired by Japanese mythology. That set introduced both ninjas and the cleverly designed ninjutsu ability, which helps your creatures sneak past enemy defenses to land decisive blows by taking the spot of another unblocked attacker.

This is an exciting update for Ninja fans in MTG! It’s great to see a Commander that brings new life to the archetype. Looking forward to seeing how this deck performs in play!
