Skyborne Scorpion Strike Stingerback Terror is a mid game leviathan that asks you to balance aggression with a full grip. Its casting cost of {2}{R}{R} buys a 7/7 flyer with trample that can push damage through blockers and close out races. The creature loses power and toughness based on the cards you hold, so hand size becomes a resource you must manage rather than a simple advantage.
The Plot ability lets you tuck a copy into exile for a later sorcery speed surprise that costs only the Plot payment. That makes the card a flexible threat in decks that capitalize on tempo and unpredictable damage windows. From a piloting perspective this card rewards tight sequencing and awareness of hand count, and it pairs well with effects that discard to value or reduce hand size without sacrificing tempo.
