Ninja's Blades

Artifact — Equipment MV 3

Tracked across real Commander games played through TurnZero HQ.

What it does

Job select

Equipped creature gets +1/+1, is a Ninja in addition to its other types, and has "Whenever this creature deals combat damage to a player, draw a card, then discard a card. That player loses life equal to the discarded card's mana value."

Mutsunokami — Equip 2

Rulings

5 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2025-06-06

    You may pay the Equipment's equip cost as normal to move it from the Hero token to another creature you control.

  • 2025-06-06

    If the Hero token is destroyed, the Equipment stays on the battlefield.

  • 2025-06-06

    The Hero token enters as a 1/1 creature, then the Equipment becomes attached to it. Abilities that trigger when a creature enters the battlefield see that a 1/1 creature entered the battlefield.

  • 2025-06-06

    If the job select ability causes two Hero tokens to be created (due to an effect such as that of Doubling Season), the Equipment becomes attached to only one of them.

  • 2025-06-06

    If the discarded card has X in its mana cost, X is 0 for the purpose of determining its mana value.

Every version of Ninja's Blades

2 printings, newest first. Prices are the market figures Scryfall publishes, refreshed nightly. A printing with no figure shows a dash rather than a zero, because Scryfall publishes none for some of them.

Prices from Scryfall, which tracks the TCGplayer and Cardmarket markets. They move daily and are a guide rather than a quote. Search TCGplayer for Ninja's Blades. It runs a name search across every version, which covers the printings TCGplayer publishes no direct link to.

Aggregated from Commander games tracked in TurnZero HQ. Every figure counts decks and games only. No individual deck list, player or playgroup is identified. Win rates are withheld below 5 completed games, where the sample is too small to mean anything.
