About Willow Satyr

Willow Satyr, Creature — satyr, designed by Jeff A. Menges first released in Jun, 1994 in the set Legends and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of $ 61.39.

Willow Satyr would fit well in a control or midrange deck that focuses on gaining and maintaining board control, particularly in formats where legendary creatures are prevalent. Its ability to temporarily gain control of an opponent's legendary creature can swing the game in your favor, especially if you can untap with that creature for additional value. However, there are arguably stronger options like Thrun, the Last Troll or Glen Elendra Archmage, which provide more immediate impact or versatility. Overall, while Willow Satyr has a unique ability that can be fun in casual play, its effectiveness in competitive formats may be limited, and it might not see significant play compared to more powerful alternatives.

Rules

10/01/09

If Willow Satyr leaves the battlefield, you no longer control it, so the duration of its control-change effect ends.

10/01/09

Once the ability resolves, it doesn’t care whether the targeted permanent remains a legal target for the ability, only that it’s on the battlefield. The effect will continue to apply to it even if it gains shroud, stops being a creature, stops being legendary, or would no longer be a legal target for any other reason.
