Oracle Text
Vigilance
Exhaust — {1}{U}: Draw a card, then discard a card. Put a +1/+1 counter on this creature. (Activate each exhaust ability only once.)
Card Details
Mana CostSet
Character Background
Keen Buccaneer reads like a compact tempo/value piece: a 2/3 vigilance for {2}{U} that attacks without leaving you defenseless and offers a one‑time {1}{U} “exhaust” cantrip that draws then discards while leaving a +1/+1 counter. In practice it’s a perfect early blocker/attacker that turns a small investment into card selection and incremental growth, supporting tempo or midrange/value game plans rather than pure aggro. Build it into decks that want controlled filtering—blue-based tempo, hidden-value pirate shells, or graveyard-focused lists—because that discard is an asset if you run delve, reanimation, madness, or other graveyard payoffs. Specific synergies include running graveyard enablers and cards that benefit from +1/+1 counters (or splashing green for Hardened Scales) so the one counter scales into a real threat; cheap interaction and bounce effects keep Buccaneer alive long enough to pressure while you leverage the card selection it provides. Use it early as board insurance and later as a steady value engine.
