Corsair Captain — Prize for the Bold
Corsair Captain is a compact engine piece for pirate tribal decks that trades no tempo for utility. The captain arrives for {2}{U} then immediately nets a Treasure token when it hits the battlefield. That Treasure buys you extra plays or mana smoothing and keeps pressure on opponents while you establish a board presence.
Beyond economy Corsair Captain is a static buff to fellow pirates. Granting other Pirates you control plus one plus one shifts combat math and makes small swarms meaningful. Use it in lists that want early ramp the ability to convert replicated value into card advantage or tempo swings. The art hints at coastal raids and practical seamanship which fits Lost Caverns flavor and the card plays like a reliable crew commander in multiplayer tables.
