Sly Instigator, Creature — human wizard, designed by Justine Cruz first released in Apr, 2021 in the set Commander 2021 and was printed exactly in 4 different ways.
A deck that focuses on controlling the board and manipulating combat situations, such as a blue control deck or a tempo deck, would benefit from using Sly Instigator. While Sly Instigator offers a unique ability to goad a creature and make it unblockable, there are potentially better cards for similar effects, such as cards that provide more consistent or impactful control elements. Whether Sly Instigator should see play depends on the specific strategy and synergy of the deck, as well as the overall metagame.

Being goaded more than once by the same player is redundant.
04/16/21
If a creature you control has been goaded by multiple opponents, it must attack one of your opponents who hasn’t goaded it. If a creature you control has been goaded by each of your opponents, you choose which opponent it attacks.
04/16/21
If a goaded creature doesn’t meet any of the above exceptions and can attack, it must attack a player other than a player who goaded it if able. It the creature can’t attack any of those players but could otherwise attack, it must attack an opposing planeswalker (controlled by any opponent) or a player who goaded it.

Once a creature an opponent controls has been legally blocked, activating Sly Instigator’s ability won’t change or undo that block.
