Creature - Griffin 2/3, W (1) Flying When you control no enchantments, sacrifice Tethered Griffin. Poorly trained griffins sometimes attack the noble audiences that gather to watch their progress.
Illus. Matthew Wilson
Only checks if you control no enchantments at the time it triggers. It does not check again on resolution. So gaining control of an enchantment before then will not save the Griffin. [D'Angelo 1999/06/01]
The ability will trigger if you don't control an enchantment, even for a brief moment during the resolution of another spell or ability. [Urza's Destiny FAQ 1999/05/25]
