About Shrike Harpy

Shrike Harpy, Creature — harpy, designed by Christopher Moeller first released in May, 2020 in the set Born of the Gods. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of A$ 0.03.

A deck that focuses on controlling the board and sacrificing opponent's creatures would benefit from including Shrike Harpy, as it provides a strong flying threat and punishes opponents for not paying the tribute. However, there are potentially better cards for similar strategies, such as Abyssal Persecutor or Desecration Demon, which offer more immediate impact or consistent threats. Whether Shrike Harpy should see play would depend on the specific deck strategy and meta-game considerations.

Rules

04/18/17

For effects that check which player put counters on the entering creature, the player chosen to pay tribute puts those counters on it, not the creature’s controller.

02/01/14

Players can’t respond to the tribute decision before the creature enters the battlefield. That is, if the opponent doesn’t pay tribute, the triggered ability will trigger before any player has a chance to remove the creature.

02/01/14

The choice of whether to pay tribute is made as the creature with tribute is entering the battlefield. At that point, it’s too late to respond to the creature spell. For example, in a multiplayer game, opponents won’t know whether tribute will be paid or which opponent will be chosen to pay tribute or not when deciding whether to counter the creature spell.

02/01/14

The opponent you target with the triggered ability doesn’t have to be the same opponent you chose to pay tribute or not.
