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 NinjutsuNinjutsu 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 two playable Planeswalkers in MtGPQ which embody Kaito at different points in their life story.

He recently took notice that his mentor, Tameshi, betrayed the Futurists and is helping a mysterious creature known as Jin-Gitaxias. With help of the Planeswalker Tamiyo, Kaito sets out to find the truth and his old friend, the Emperor and stop his former mentor’s plans.
