Stinging Scorpion, Host creature — scorpion, designed by YW Tang first released in Dec, 2017 in the set Unstable and was printed exactly in 2 different ways.
The Stinging Scorpion fits well in a black control or midrange deck that aims to weaken opponents' creatures while maintaining board presence, making it useful for decks that focus on creature removal and attrition. While it provides a temporary debuff, there are arguably better options like Fatal Push or Doom Blade, which can permanently remove threats for a similar mana cost. Given its limited impact, it may not see much competitive play compared to more efficient removal spells, but it can still have niche applications in casual or synergistic builds that leverage creature interactions.

Host creatures each have an ability that triggers when it enters the battlefield. It functions like any other creature.
