About Xanthic Statue

Xanthic Statue, Artifact, designed by Hannibal King first released in Jun, 1997 in the set Weatherlight. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 2.73.

This card could be beneficial in a deck that focuses on ramping up mana quickly and generating a lot of mana to activate its ability consistently. Decks that can produce a large amount of mana, such as green ramp decks or artifact-based decks, would find Xanthic Statue useful for its potential as a powerful finisher. However, there are better cards available for similar mana costs that offer more immediate impact or versatility, such as Eldrazi creatures like Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger or Emrakul, the Promised End, which can have a more significant impact on the game when played. Overall, while Xanthic Statue has potential in certain decks, it may not be the most optimal choice for competitive play compared to other options available.

Rules

08/01/08

A noncreature permanent that turns into a creature can attack, and its abilities can be activated, only if its controller has continuously controlled that permanent since the beginning of their most recent turn. It doesn’t matter how long the permanent has been a creature.
