Kithkin Spellduster, Creature — kithkin wizard, designed by Trevor Hairsine first released in Jul, 2008 in the set Eventide.
This card would be beneficial in a white control deck that focuses on disrupting the opponent's enchantments while having a recurring threat with its persist ability. While Kithkin Spellduster is a decent choice for enchantment removal, there are more efficient options like Reclamation Sage or Qasali Pridemage that provide additional utility. However, if the deck is looking for a flying threat with enchantment removal capabilities, Kithkin Spellduster could see play in certain metagames.

If a creature with persist stops being a creature, persist will still work.
06/07/13
If a creature with persist that has +1/+1 counters on it receives enough -1/-1 counters to cause it to be destroyed by lethal damage or put into its owner’s graveyard for having 0 or less toughness, persist won’t trigger and the card won’t return to the battlefield. That’s because persist checks the creature’s existence just before it leaves the battlefield, and it still has all those counters on it at that point.

If a permanent has multiple instances of persist, they’ll each trigger separately, but the redundant instances will have no effect. If one instance returns the card to the battlefield, the next to resolve will do nothing.

When a permanent with persist returns to the battlefield, it’s a new object with no memory of or connection to its previous existence.
