Guardian of Vitu-Ghazi, Creature — elemental, designed by Wayne Reynolds first released in Oct, 2005 in the set Ravnica: City of Guilds.
A Selesnya tokens deck would benefit from Guardian of Vitu-Ghazi due to its convoke ability, allowing you to potentially cast it for less than its mana cost by tapping your creatures. The vigilance ability also makes it a strong defensive option. However, there are better cards for similar mana costs in Selesnya decks, such as Trostani Discordant or March of the Multitudes, which offer more impactful effects. Guardian of Vitu-Ghazi could see play in a budget or casual deck, but in more competitive environments, it may be outclassed by other options.

If a creature you control has a mana ability with in the cost, activating that ability while casting a spell with convoke will result in the creature being tapped before you pay the spell’s costs. You won’t be able to tap it again for convoke. Similarly, if you sacrifice a creature to activate a mana ability while casting a spell with convoke, that creature won’t be on the battlefield when you pay the spell’s costs, so you won’t be able to tap it for convoke.

When calculating a spell’s total cost, include any alternative costs, additional costs, or anything else that increases or reduces the cost to cast the spell. Convoke applies after the total cost is calculated.
