Yeah everything should have costed 0, or 1 cmc, independent of the actual powerlevel...
Seems a weird position to take, but hey if thats what you think.
Ok mr. passionate, mind sharing with the group which cmc would have been 'acceptable' for you on this card, and which cmc would make you LOVE the card.
Drop the stats (3/2 or something), the effect is super strong (until you whiff and hit a land and an Expedition Map), put the Ninjitsu at 3cmc (1UB), and the actual cast cost at 4.
4 Mana is the big stuff in Modern, its what ends games. Keeping something attacking AND hold 4 mana? Or just hard cast at 5? Nah.
Interestingly, according to the preview article, WotC really was going for current-Modern-compatible with this card. So the concerns of going to far towards Commander desires, may actually be concerns of how well WotC understands high(est?)-end Modern.
Although there's always my hunches that WotC is trying to slow Modern down to a 5-6 turn format...
Do ninja exist on multiple planes? Looking at the background, the cobblestone and what little I can see of the architecture, this definitely isn't Kamigawa.
Tron is a Mistake.
Goyf is a Mistake.
Cards that would never be printed on power level alone, but somehow are Modern legal, are mostly Mistakes.
Spirits

I like its abilities though. Far better than Silent-Blade Oni imo.

Spoiler EditorAlso, is it just me, or does the art look like the X-Men Origins version of Deadpool?
