Kentaro, the Smiling Cat would be a valuable addition to a Samurai tribal deck in Magic: the Gathering, benefiting from its cost-reducing ability for Samurai spells and its Bushido 1 ability. However, in a competitive setting, there are stronger options like Samurai of the Pale Curtain which offers more utility with its ability to exile cards from graveyards. Kentaro could see play in more casual or thematic decks focused on the Samurai tribe, where its unique abilities can shine.
