Glint Hawk Idol, Artifact, designed by Dave Allsop first released in Oct, 2010 in the set Scars of Mirrodin and was printed exactly in 2 different ways.
The Glint Hawk Idol card would be beneficial in an artifact-heavy deck that aims to have multiple artifacts entering the battlefield frequently. It can provide a versatile threat as a 2/2 flyer and can be activated at instant speed for defense or surprise attacks. However, there may be better options for similar effects depending on the specific strategy of the deck, such as Stoneforge Mystic or Steel Overseer, which offer more consistent and impactful abilities. Overall, Glint Hawk Idol could see play in decks looking for additional artifact synergy and evasion, but its effectiveness may vary depending on the overall game plan.

For example, say one of Glint Hawk Idol’s abilities has resolved and it’s a 2/2 creature. You cast Giant Growth targeting it. It’s now 5/5. Then Diminish (“Target creature becomes 1/1 until end of turn”) is cast targeting it. Once Diminish resolves, Glint Hawk Idol would be 4/4. Activating Glint Hawk Idol’s last ability at this point would make it 5/5 again until end of turn.

If Glint Hawk Idol and another artifact enter the battlefield under your control at the same time, Glint Hawk Idol’s first ability will trigger. You may have it become a creature, but since it will be affected by “summoning sickness,” it won’t be able to attack that turn.

The creature type “Bird” was inadvertently omitted from each of Glint Hawk Idol’s abilities. It has received errata to correct this omission; when either of its abilities resolves, it will become a Bird artifact creature.
