This card, Nimble Obstructionist, would be a great addition to a control or tempo deck in Magic: the Gathering, as it offers versatile utility with its ability to counter activated or triggered abilities. While there may be other options like Glen Elendra Archmage that provide similar effects, Nimble Obstructionist's lower mana cost and cycling ability make it a strong contender for inclusion in decks looking to disrupt opponents' strategies while maintaining card advantage. It should definitely see play in decks that can make the most of its unique abilities.

Mana abilities can’t be targeted. An activated mana ability is one that adds mana to a player’s mana pool as it resolves, doesn’t have a target, and isn’t a loyalty ability. A triggered mana ability is one that adds mana to a player’s mana pool and triggers on an activated mana ability.

Triggered abilities use the word “when,” “whenever,” or “at.” They’re often written as “[Trigger condition], [effect].” Some keyword abilities, such as prowess and afflict, are triggered abilities and will have “when,” “whenever,” or “at” in their reminder text.

Some cards with cycling have an ability that triggers when you cycle them. These triggered abilities resolve before you draw from the cycling ability.

You can cycle a card even if it has a triggered ability from cycling that won’t have a legal target. This is because the cycling ability and the triggered ability are separate. This also means that if either ability doesn’t resolve (due to being countered with Disallow, for example, or if the triggered ability’s targets have become illegal), the other ability will still resolve.
