Shambleshark, Creature — shark crab, designed by Wesley Burt first released in May, 2020 in the set Gatecrash and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander.
The Shambleshark card would be beneficial in a Simic (Green-Blue) tempo or aggro deck in Magic: the Gathering, as it provides a versatile threat with the potential to grow larger quickly through its Evolve ability. While Shambleshark is a solid choice for such decks, there are potentially better options like Cloudfin Raptor or Experiment One that offer similar effects with lower mana costs, making them more efficient choices for competitive play. However, Shambleshark could still see play in more casual or budget decks looking to capitalize on its Flash ability and incremental growth potential.

If evolve triggers, the stat comparison will happen again when the ability tries to resolve. If neither stat of the new creature is greater, the ability will do nothing. If the creature that entered the battlefield leaves the battlefield before evolve tries to resolve, use its last known power and toughness to compare the stats.

If multiple creatures enter the battlefield at the same time, evolve may trigger multiple times, although the stat comparison will take place each time one of those abilities tries to resolve. For example, if you control a 2/2 creature with evolve and two 3/3 creatures enter the battlefield, evolve will trigger twice. The first ability will resolve and put a +1/+1 counter on the creature with evolve. When the second ability tries to resolve, neither the power nor the toughness of the new creature is greater than that of the creature with evolve, so that ability does nothing.

When comparing the stats of the two creatures for evolve, you always compare power to power and toughness to toughness.
