Level is a Dependent Keyword.
It is formatted as "[Level [N], [>] [Text]".
Starting from the Keyword to the end of the clause, the entire statement is the Level Ability.
It is functionally short for “While you have [N] or more XP, this card gains ‘[Text]’.”
The [Text] here is the Dependent Ability
As long as the controlling player has [N] XP, then the Dependent Ability will be be Active on the card with Level
If the controller of the card with Level changes, then the Dependent Ability will be rendered Active or Inactive based on the new controller’s XP.
The Dependent Ability will be Inactive as soon as the controlling player has less than [N] XP.
Level, and whether or not a card has Level is a characteristic of the card and may be checked or referenced by other Game Effects.
