AnarchangeI: Alphabetical order was a very strong rationale. But the Name header can do that. It looks a mess either way, because of the cramped Standard cards, but arguably worse mixed up.

[[Kaito Shizuki]] is a black and blue human Planeswalker, announced in March 2023 along with the [[Phyrexia: All Will Be One]] ([[ONE]]) card set.

He has quite good mana gains in his colors, and a -2 to Green. His deck limits are balanced.

All of his abilities are moderately priced and very focused on particular objectives. His first stops an enemy creature from attacking or blocking, for a turn. His second draws a card and, if he returns a creature to his hand, gains up to 30 mana. The third creates an 8/8 stack of [[#Drone|Drone]] {{Ability|Token|Tokens}} that doubles in size to 16/16 if he returns a creature to his hand. These costs can hypothetically be a small asset to a Ninja deck.

Kaito Shizuki is the first of two playable Planeswalkers in MtGPQ which embody Kaito at different points in their [[#Story|life story]].
