Skyborne Scorpion Brutal and Precise
Stingerback Terror arrives as a hard casting threat that reads simply but plays with nuance. The seven power seven toughness body combined with flying and trample makes this creature a clear aerial beat stick. Its static drawback reads as a tax on your hand size so you will evaluate timing carefully; the more cards you hold the smaller the Terror becomes, which invites hand management and sequencing in midrange and aggressive shells.
If the board state demands flexibility you can plot this card from your hand to cast it later without paying its mana cost. That plot line gives you a window to bait removal or to find the exact turn where a 7 7 plus evasion matters most. In limited play the raw numbers dominate. In constructed play the interaction between your draw and this creature's minus one minus one per card in hand creates interesting plays around discard effects and card flow. The card fits the Outlaws of Thunder Junction flavor by blending brute force with outlawed cunning in the sky.
