Notes & Combos
This is probably the most consistent form a ninja deck can take. The combination of 2 OG Notebooks and the Shield Bearer tech to search and special summon a Baku, along with the large number of Ninja names, makes this archetype far less likely to completely brick on turn 1 like a standard Ninja list would. Should you still find yourself bricked, you have the option to search the 1of Alchemy to draw 2, destroying the OG Notebook after searching for the Alchemy. Not bricking seems to be more important than running viable non-engine cards in practise as the in-engine effects legitimately have the ability to shut down most decks in this meta when used correctly. 2 Kurikara and Nib are more impactful in this meta than running 3 Ash Blossoms and we play well enough into Maxx C that it isn't as necessary.

I have a list of replays on my profile from my climb in the DC and I'll be adding more as I climb to Masters this season. Feel free to follow for future Ninja content.
