About Kathari Screecher

Kathari Screecher, Creature — bird soldier, designed by Pete Venters first released in May, 2020 in the set Shards of Alara.

This Kathari Screecher card would be beneficial in a blue-black control deck that focuses on graveyard recursion and tempo plays. While it provides a decent flying threat that can be brought back from the graveyard with Unearth, there are potentially better options like Snapcaster Mage or Jace, Vryn's Prodigy that offer more versatility and value in a variety of situations. However, if the deck is looking for a budget-friendly option or specifically needs a flying creature with Unearth, Kathari Screecher could see play in certain niche strategies.

Rules

10/01/08

At the beginning of the end step, a creature returned to the battlefield with unearth is exiled. This is a delayed triggered ability, and it can be countered by effects such as Stifle or Voidslime that counter triggered abilities. If the ability is countered, the creature will stay on the battlefield and the delayed trigger won’t trigger again. However, the replacement effect will still exile the creature when it eventually leaves the battlefield.

10/01/08

If a creature returned to the battlefield with unearth would leave the battlefield for any reason, it’s exiled instead — unless the spell or ability that’s causing the creature to leave the battlefield is actually trying to exile it! In that case, it succeeds at exiling it. If it later returns the creature card to the battlefield (as Oblivion Ring or Flickerwisp might, for example), the creature card will return to the battlefield as a new object with no relation to its previous existence. The unearth effect will no longer apply to it.

10/01/08

If you activate a card’s unearth ability but that card is removed from your graveyard before the ability resolves, that unearth ability will resolve and do nothing.
