Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"Archidekt Deckbuilding Contest - April\n\nThe keyword I decided to explore was Shadow. Shadow is not only the keyword, but also the commander of this deck. In Final Fantasy 6, Shadow is a Ninja. In MTG Ninjas like to have ways to Ninjutsu in from creatures that are hard to block.....You know what is hard to block??? Shadow!! Lol\nThis deck has various ways to give Shadow the Shadow keyword as well and other ways to make him hard to block. You'll also notice many cards with \"Shadow\" in the title for some added extra humor/fun. Since shadow creatures have a hard time blocking and ninjas aren't particularly great at it either, I added some Lifelink where I could and also cards like Maze of Ith for some other protection.\n"}]}
