Kitesail Larcenist (Extended Art) (The Lost Caverns of Ixalan) Light Play

Skyborne Pickpocket

Kitesail Larcenist is a compact tempo tool that trades damage for value. With a casting cost of {2}{U}, this Human Pirate arrives with flying and ward {1}, making it a reliable evasive threat that resists cheap removal. When it resolves the enter the battlefield trigger forces each player to pick one other permanent they control and surrender it to a new role. That interaction can turn opposing blockers into short lived treasure chaff or convert your own small creatures into repeatable mana sources.

In practice Kitesail Larcenist fits well in decks that want to pivot between aggression and resource generation. It creates a sticky board presence because chosen permanents become Treasure artifacts that tap for any color while losing other abilities. Use it to strip key abilities from an enemy blocker or to tax your opponent into awkward choices. The Extended Art print is light play, ideal for collectors who also want a playset piece that reads cleanly at the table.
