This guy is a beast, and the only reason he isn't the general of every ninja deck ever is because he isn't black. With any luck this reprint'll bring his price down a bit. He is also a fantastic emissary for Kamigawa. "Look, kiddies! It wasn't all bad!"

Ninjutsu is the only part of Kamigawa I ever really wished I'd been around for (the Jitte's good, but it would get old using it all the time). Needless to say, I was more than a little pleased to read the decklist this guy shows up in.

Combos with... Heartstone. (and Throatslitter) I know, I know, training grounds. But I prefer Heartstone (mostly because I actually own two) but since neither of them can reduce past 1, and Higure only has a activated ability for 2, well. I thought HERES YOUR TIME TO SHINE, Heartstone. Your time to shine.

Pulled this up from the ground today. No lie. I know there's a few MtG players in my hometown. Maybe I should expect for a reward, or demand some ransom.

"Pulled this up from the ground today. No lie. I know there's a few MtG players in my hometown. Maybe I should expect for a reward, or demand some ransom." @AshToMoutHound: Looks like he managed to unnoticedly escape his owner. This just proofs how good he is at being a ninja.

Isn't "still wind" an oxymoron?

Riding off of RAV0004's comment, Heartstone or Training Grounds do not combo with the Ninjutsu ability; it only works with the "Unblockable" activated ability.
Ninjutsu is an ability that activates while the Ninja is in your hand, so Heartstone and Training Grounds will not affect those

@Ladon--- Activated abilities contain a colon. They're generally written "Cost: Effect." Some keywords are activated abilities; they have colons in their reminder text. , Return an unblocked attacker you control to hand: Put this card onto the battlefield from your hand tapped and attacking.

Slow them down with Suppression Field.
