About Guardian Idol

Guardian Idol, Artifact, designed by Edward P. Beard, Jr. first released in Jun, 2004 in the set Fifth Dawn and was printed exactly in 4 different ways. It see play in 2 formats: Commander and Brawl. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of A$ 0.23.

The Guardian Idol card could benefit an aggressive artifact-based deck looking for additional mana ramp and a potential creature threat. However, there are better options available such as Mana Vault or Mana Crypt for faster mana acceleration, or Walking Ballista for a more versatile creature threat. While Guardian Idol could see play in budget or casual decks, it may not be optimal for competitive play due to its slower activation and limited impact compared to other options.

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.
