There was only one good expansion using a real life theme (sort of) and that was Arabian nights.

Nico: We only have 2 more expansions to suffer through, then this set will start it steady death like all other blocks.

normalbrains:  Venues often get this sneak preview common as sort of a teaser pack.  It has always been a common and more often than not, shows the new effect of the set.  In this case,  Ninjutsu.

EDIT:  This is no more than a normal common with nothing special about it whatsoever, just as an fyi for all those who do not know what these sneak preview cards are.

I foresee this ability being argued quite a bit in multiplayer.

so this card is saying if unblocked you get to attack again in the same turn   and then get to draw cards from your library.  am i reading this right or the second time around does your opponant get to assign a blocker if they choose cause this is a second attack phase.

what a confussing abuility woc you guys are reaching to far bring back magics simplicity

[sylvanstu]

isn't this abuility broken you could keep paying 1u and keep attacking a drawing a card ? ::)

you only get to attack once. it effectively replaces your attacking creature before it deals damage. really weird flavor-wise, but i guess it is very sneaky. but why would a spirit suddenly turn into a ninja? those wacky ninjas.

[spartan65]

that is awsome you can basically wipe someone out then draw a sh*t load of cards!
;D

In multiplayer, if the rules aren't written otherwise, you'd be able to attack someone with no blockers, then switch the attacker with a Ninja attacking someone else entirely.

no that is rong i think...but since my comp wont load the card i cant check

The rules of Magic don't change, you still only get one attack.  The important part is "Return an unblocked attacker", which means that we're still in combat, otherwise there are no attackers.  You are free to respond to instants that might destroy the creature so that you can save it, replay it and still deal damage.  The creature will still only deal damage once during combat when damage is put on the stack (unless you somehow give it first strike and return it to your hand and replay it before regular combat damage is assigned).  Once damage is on the stack using the ability won't do anything interesting.

Has anyone actually seen the card ???
The wording is wrong (Return an unblocked attacker you control to hand instead of Return an unblocked attacking creature you control to its owner's hand) which makes me think it's a fake [smiley=veryangry.gif]
