Dimir Infiltrator is an unblockable two-drop that doubles as a tutor — the evasion is free, and the transmute finds any two-mana piece in your deck. In Satoru Umezawa lists specifically, it slots in as both a reliable ninjutsu enabler and a toolbox fetch for whatever two-drop the situation demands.
Best Commanders
Commanders with the highest synergy
Satoru Umezawa
Satoru Umezawa wants creatures that connect reliably, and Dimir Infiltrator is unblockable by definition — it guarantees a ninjutsu trigger while also transmuting into any two-mana piece your hand is missing.
Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow
Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow runs Dimir Infiltrator for the same evasion reason: an unblockable body that returns to hand after ninjutsu means repeated free attacks and consistent Yuriko triggers without ever getting chump-blocked.

In Commander, Dimir Infiltrator earns its slot in any ninjutsu shell by being unkillable in combat and a tutor stapled on top. Outside Commander, it sees fringe Pauper play where unblockable two-drops with upside are scarce and transmute provides real late-game utility. Legacy and Vintage have more efficient options at the same cost, so Dimir Infiltrator rarely competes there. Modern and Pioneer have largely passed it by on raw power level, even if the transmute text is appealing on paper.

Price Context
Current price
$0.64 bulk tier
At $0.64, Dimir Infiltrator sits firmly in bulk rare territory — easy to pick up without budget considerations. Demand from Satoru Umezawa and Yuriko lists keeps it from hitting true bulk-bin prices, but don't expect that floor to move much.
