Planeswalkers   (Infobox · Data)

Kaito Shizuki is a black and blue human Planeswalker, introduced in March 2022 along with the Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty card set.

His mana gains are more of a "spike" type than many mono color walkers; he has a bonus of +6 to Black and only +2 to Blue. His deck limits are balanced, with a focus on Spells.

All of his abilities are very expensive and fairly powerful. His first is a combination of card draw, mana gain and making the opponent discard. The second enables the Ninjutsu  mechanic by summoning a Rogue or Ninja. The third creates a Shadow Scroll token that can fetch up to two full-mana creatures of any type.

Kaito has low hit points at low level and gains HP more rapidly around level 40.

Kaito Shizuki is the first of a number of playable Planeswalkers in MtGPQ which embody Kaito at different points in their life story.
