About Stinging Lionfish

Stinging Lionfish, Enchantment creature — fish, designed by Christopher Burdett first released in Jan, 2020 in the set Theros Beyond Death and was printed exactly in 4 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of NZ$ 0.16.

A control deck that focuses on casting spells during the opponent's turn would benefit from using Stinging Lionfish, as it provides additional utility by allowing you to tap or untap a nonland permanent when you cast your first spell during each opponent's turn. While Stinging Lionfish can be a useful card in certain situations, there are better options available in Magic: the Gathering that offer more impactful effects for a similar cost, such as Vendilion Clique or Snapcaster Mage. Ultimately, whether Stinging Lionfish should see play depends on the specific strategy and synergies of the deck it is being considered for.
