    Changing the number of cards in any player’s hand can cause Descendant of Kiyomaro to lose the life-gain triggered ability. Once an ability triggers, however, it exists independently of its source.

  • WotCJun 1, 2005

    If any opponent has more cards or as many cards in hand as Descendant of Kiyomaro’s controller, Descendant of Kiyomaro doesn’t get any bonus.
