About Groundling Pouncer

Groundling Pouncer, Creature — faerie, designed by Richard Whitters first released in Jul, 2008 in the set Eventide. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 1.03.

This card would be beneficial in a deck that focuses on disrupting opponents' flying creatures while also having access to green and blue mana. It could be useful in a tempo or control deck that aims to maintain board presence and control the skies. However, there are potentially better cards available, such as Mystic Snake, which offers a similar mana cost and provides a stronger effect by countering a spell when it enters the battlefield. Whether Groundling Pouncer should see play would depend on the specific strategy and synergy within the deck, as well as the overall metagame.

Rules

08/01/08

It matters that an opponent controls a creature with flying only as you activate this ability. Once you’ve activated it, Groundling Pouncer will still get +1/+3 and gain flying, even if all of your opponents’ creatures with flying leave the battlefield in response to the ability or after the ability resolves.
