Kitesail Larcenist has flying and ward {1}, which gives it evasive pressure and a small tax against removal. When Kitesail Larcenist enters the battlefield, you choose up to one other target artifact or creature each player controls. Those chosen permanents become Treasure artifacts with the ability \"Tap, Sacrifice this artifact: Add one mana of any color\" and lose their other abilities for as long as the Larcenist remains on the battlefield. That change reads as a shifting resource that rewards keeping Kitesail Larcenist alive and timing your attacks or sacrifice plays carefully.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn practical play the card is useful in multiplayer where each convert can net you a mana outlet or in two player games where you can neutralize a problematic artifact while smoothing mana. The creature type Human Pirate fits the Lost Caverns theme and the printed stats 2 over 3 balance offense and survivability. Kitesail Larcenist is a sensible inclusion when you need a repeated source of mana value that also pressures opponents from the sky.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch4\u003eCard Details:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMana Cost\u003c\/b\u003e – {2}{U}\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCard Type\u003c\/b\u003e – Creature\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSubtypes\u003c\/b\u003e – Human Pirate\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCard Text \/ Rules Text (Printed)\u003c\/b\u003e – Flying, ward {1}\nWhen Kitesail Larcenist enters the battlefield, for each player, choose up to one other target artifact or creature that player controls.
