Possibly the most BADA$$ (stupid censor) name ever to grace a Magic card.

There are so many ways to look at this art.
She's riding on top of the man like a horse.
In a sexual tone, she says, "I thought you liked it rough, baby."
Another way would be a flavor text, "Female Ninjas have a policy that men must pay for their services or risk losing their head."
A little off the top.
When he thought she was going to work the head, he literally thought the wrong head.

This is rated way shittier than it is. Make this unblockable, and it's basically a tap to do damage, activate another ninjitsu and kill a creature in one card for 3 mana, if you're using it for ninjitsu, which if this is in your deck, you should be.

This card is way better than the rating suggests. It ninjutsus in for 3, so you can thwack your opponent with liliana's specter, bring it back to your hand, ninja this lovely lady in for 3. It is essentially a 3 mana "destroy target nonblack creature, deal 2 damage blah blah" spell (well, 6 if you include the specter, but the specter's for the discard anyways). Next main phase you can slap lightning greaves on her or even better, whispersilk cloak

Send that specter back out and make the opponent discard, thwack with throat slitter to your heart's content to nuke key creatures, and do that until you ninja out Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni or something and start nabbing those critters you murdered.

For added effect use some swarmyards to help keep your ratties on the board.

Ninjutsu is really good for returning creatures that have a "enter the battlefield" trigger.

This card can make the game for you if you can consistently destroy a creature every turn.

Oh, and I'm pretty sure ninjutsu'd creatures can't be countered since it's an ability that puts it into play, not a casting cost.

Not a bad card at all in an evasion deck.

For {2}{B} you get two damage and a doom blade effect that you can repeat over and over again. Toss in some creature tapping cards and you can really do some serious damage.

Slot this into your deck as a sorcery speed kill spell and use it next to any ETB trigger you like and you'll be happy. Add a whispersilk cloak for maximum flavor awesome (untouchable assassin moving through the enemy ranks!)
