Description
Quick Loot, Solid Play
Plundering Pirate gives you a straightforward tempo play that also seeds your board with resources. When Plundering Pirate enters the battlefield you get a Treasure token, which is an immediate one mana ramp or a fuel source for spells that care about artifacts. The card reads cleanly and fits into aggressive red shells or artifact synergies where an early Treasure can change sequencing and trading decisions.
From a lore angle the Orc Pirate is fitting for Lost Caverns of Ixalan because the set rewards bold exploration and quick gains. Play Plundering Pirate on turn three to press an early advantage or drop it later to turn a single removal into a two for one by converting the token into a response. It is simple. It is efficient. It is the sort of card experienced players slot when they need reliable value with minimal fuss.
