Stone Giant

Creature - Giant 3/4, 2RR (4)

{T}: Target creature you control with toughness less than Stone Giant's power gains flying until end of turn. Destroy that creature at the beginning of the next end step.

A typical day for a giant. A momentous event for a goat.

• 8/1/2008: If the Giant's power and/or toughness change so that its toughness is less than its power, you can have the ability target the Giant itself.
• 10/1/2009: To work as an evasion ability, an attacking creature must already have flying when the declare blockers step begins. Once a creature has become blocked, giving it flying won't change that.
• 10/1/2009: If Stone Giant's ability is activated during a turn's end step, the delayed triggered ability won't trigger until the beginning of the next turn's end step. The targeted creature will be destroyed at that time.
• 10/1/2009: When the delayed triggered ability resolves, the targeted creature is destroyed, even if it's no longer a creature, no longer under your control, or no longer has toughness less than Stone Giant's power at that time.
