Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow is deployed cheaply via commander ninjutsu by bouncing evasive, often zero-cost creatures back to hand after they slip through unblocked, then repeatedly connecting with a growing ninja force to drain opponents' life totals based on the mana values of revealed cards. The deck runs numerous unblockable one-drops and changelings as ninjutsu enablers, while Silver-Fur Master buffs the ninja team and Ingenious Infiltrator generates additional card draw whenever any ninja connects. The win condition is a combination of accumulated life loss from high-mana-value cards cascading off combat triggers, supplemented by extra turn spells and board wipes to protect attackers and close out the game.
