About Spearpoint Oread

Spearpoint Oread, Enchantment creature — nymph, designed by Todd Lockwood first released in Sep, 2013 in the set Theros. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 2.37.

Spearpoint Oread would be beneficial in an aggressive red deck looking to apply early pressure with first strike abilities and pump effects. However, there are stronger options like Goblin Rabblemaster or Stormblood Berserker that offer more immediate impact and consistency, making Spearpoint Oread less likely to see play in competitive Magic: the Gathering decks.

Rules

09/15/13

Auras attached to a creature don’t become tapped when the creature becomes tapped. Except in some rare cases, an Aura with bestow remains untapped when it becomes unattached and becomes a creature.

09/15/13

On the stack, a spell with bestow is either a creature spell or an Aura spell. It’s never both, although it’s an enchantment spell in either case.

09/15/13

Unlike other Auras, an Aura with bestow isn’t put into its owner’s graveyard if it becomes unattached. Rather, the effect making it an Aura ends, it loses enchant creature, and it remains on the battlefield as an enchantment creature. It can attack (and its abilities can be activated, if it has any) on the turn it becomes unattached if it’s been under your control continuously, even as an Aura, since your most recent turn began.
