Ninjatsu doesnt sound a lot like a weapon name.
This would be some sort of a toned down momentum, im not sure if the mechanic is unique enough for the game(considering we have titan, chargers and momentum, which do the same thing and others as well).

[Newbiecake]

Phase Shield makes you shift out of phase, therefore making the opponent miss you. No matter how accurate, I don't think this Ninjatsu can attack something that is out of phase.

However, I think you can give it "Ranged" as a passive ability. That way, it can get past Wings while it is in the weapon slot, just like Eagle's Eye.

Btw, you have this card as a spell. Better change it to a permanent.

Cool idea Zblader

It is called Ninjutsu. Although that is a Shuriken...Ninjutsu is the Martial Art used by the Ninja which was made to exploit the weak areas of the body to disable or kill.

As for the weapon, I love it! Although, the unupped should cost 4 and the upped should cost 5 or 6.

Thanks. I had a weapon in mind but lacked something to base it off of. I will using the third image.

We need more ranged weapons.

[ZephyrPhantom]

Just to clear things up - I intentionally spelled it Ninjatsu in an attempt to be original with the name.  So please stop saying I mispelled it.

@Shiningsword - Titan is rare. Similar to the "other" Other weapons I think it would make sense to have more alternatives that can be used in decks (overall this would be a very useful common weapon because it can bypass some shields.)

@Noobiecakes Ranged is already an ability that Short Bow has. Ninjatsu does not need ranged because it can already performed Range'd ability and better. I originally designed the card as a way to get around the haxx shields but since mechanicwise Phase Shield also causes misses I thought it might as well be also helpful to provide a counter to it that all elements can use. (Who knows, you might be warping the opponent's dimension to bring him back into phase. )

Also fixed the error with the spell/permanent icon.

You have animated upgraded Ninjatsu as 4|3
also, I feel like this is too situational. When would you know to pick ninjatsu over long sword?

[TuckingFypo]

I like the concept, and I think it's balanced at the moment. But I wouldn't pick this weapon over any other weapon.  Owl's Eye, for example.  The advantage of CC on a stick is worth more than a guaranteed 4-7 damage that bypasses a couple shields that, although commonly used, aren't seen in every single match.

  I think there needs to be a bigger incentive to use this weapon.  Maybe it could deal double damage when those shields are in play?

Eagle's Eye is a rare. This card is basically a cheaper/weaker version of Titan that can bypass most shields that make you miss on purpose, and is common for accesbility (sort of like Dagger being a placeholder for the arsenic you may lack in a deck). Lowering the cost to 2 | 2 automatically makes it replace any Short Bows or Gavels.

I like the double damage suggestion, but my main problem is how to fit it on the card text. 

[Flayne]

so its a weaker and cheaper Titan?
i recommend changing to teh double damage thing suggested.

[ZephyrPhantom]

Alright, I've changed the card so that it has a double-damage ability instead of the accuracy ability.
