Rationale
Nita is a 3cmc WB Advisor with two synergistic abilities: a triggered counter-producer rewarding casting spells you don't own (e.g. opponent's exiled instants/sorceries), and an activated sacrifice outlet that exiles an opponent's instant/sorcery from their graveyard and lets you cast it for free this turn. She is signature in aristocrats shells that want sac outlets and in spellslinger/theft strategies that leverage opponents' graveyards. The counter trigger and the graveyard-exile ability create a self-reinforcing loop: sac a creature to steal and cast a spell, which also pumps your board.
Learnings (3)
Nita's counter trigger fires when you cast a spell you don't own — this includes spells stolen via her own activated ability, creating a self-synergistic loop on the same turn.

The activated ability requires sacrificing 'another creature,' meaning Nita must survive to use it; protect her or have another creature available before activating.

Nita's exile clause ('if that spell would be put into a graveyard, exile it instead') prevents opponents from recurring the spell you cast, making her a mild graveyard-hate piece as well as a theft engine.
