[[Kaito, Bane of Nightmares]] is a black and blue human Planeswalker, introduced in October 2024 along with [https://forums.d3go.com/discussion/91050/release-notes-6-9-0 update 6.9.0] after the [[Duskmourn]] card set.
His mana gains are strategically set to two high bonuses in his colors, and a small backup bonus in Red. His deck limits are balanced, with an extra Spell.
On release, his abilities were much more expensive; all three were patched in the very next update to cost the same : 08 loyalty. All three summon one or more [[#Kaito Shadow Clone|Kaito Shadow Clone]] tokens. His first is a combination of Surveil and card draw. The second destroys a target opposing creature, and gains mana. The third buffs friendly and stuns enemy creatures.
Kaito, Bane of Nightmares is the third of a number of playable Planeswalkers in MtGPQ which embody Kaito at different points in their [[#Story|life story]].
