Kitsune Ace

Description

The 2022 Magic: The Gathering Jumpstart 2022 release includes Kitsune Ace as card number 204 in the Jumpstart 2022 set. This Common creature card features a mana cost of {1}{W} and a mana value of 2. The card type is listed as Creature — Fox Pilot, placing it within the White color identity. The design credits artist Joseph Weston for the visual presentation of this entry in the Jumpstart 2022 collection. Kitsune Ace functions as a 2/2 body with a triggered ability that interacts with Vehicle cards. When a Vehicle you control attacks, you choose one effect: either that Vehicle gains first strike until end of turn, or you untap Kitsune Ace. This mechanical interaction offers flexibility during gameplay by providing either offensive pressure or resource recovery. The flavor text "Oh, sorry—were we racing?" adds thematic context to the card's identity as a Fox Pilot. Collectors of Magic: The Gathering trading cards often track specific sets like Jumpstart 2022 for their unique deck-building experiences. The card's ability triggers when a Vehicle you control attacks, allowing you to grant that Vehicle first strike or untap the creature. The straightforward rules text and moderate power level make it a staple in certain strategies. Its placement in the base checklist of Jumpstart 2022 ensures it is a recognizable part of the set's ecosystem.
