Green/Blue Ninja Tribal and Flying Creatures
After we watched the movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, my friend Tom refused to call it anything but “Flying People, Hidden Wires.”
Use enchantments to give your creatures flying and sit back and enjoy all the combat damage triggers. Or give your opponent’s creatures flying and use cheap green removal spells like Broken Wings, Crushing Canopy, Flourishing Strike, Tangletrap, or Choose Your Weapon to dispose of them; either way, your Ninjas fly free!
Use Hidden Strings and Mistblade Shinobi to show your opponent who really pulls the strings and Keiga, the Tide Star or Roil Elemental to steal their creatures. Remember to shout, “GET OVER HERE!” when you take the creature – then use Spring-Leaf Avenger to bring Keiga back.
Don’t forget to keep a Spring-Leaf Avenger in hand for a Ninjutsu-powered sneak attack. Remember to shout, “FINISH HIM!” when you do.
FLAWLESS VICTORY!
