About Swarmborn Giant

Swarmborn Giant, Creature — giant, designed by Jaime Jones first released in May, 2020 in the set Journey into Nyx. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of $ 0.16.

This card could be beneficial in a green-based midrange or control deck looking to stall the board with a big creature that can block flying threats once it becomes monstrous. However, the drawback of sacrificing it when dealt combat damage can be a significant downside, especially in aggressive matchups. Other cards like Pelakka Wurm or Thorn Mammoth offer similar benefits without the sacrifice drawback, making them potentially better choices depending on the deck's strategy and the metagame. Overall, Swarmborn Giant may not see widespread play due to its vulnerability, but could find a niche in specific deck archetypes.

Rules

04/26/14

An ability that triggers when a creature becomes monstrous won’t trigger if that creature isn’t on the battlefield when its monstrosity ability resolves.

04/26/14

Once a creature becomes monstrous, it can’t become monstrous again. If the creature is already monstrous when the monstrosity ability resolves, nothing happens.
