Stoneshock Giant is a 5/4 creature for {3}{R}{R} that can become monstrous for {6}{R}{R}, gaining three +1/+1 counters and preventing opposing non-flying creatures from blocking that turn. This ability can open up strong offensive plays, especially in aggressive red decks that aim to overwhelm opponents quickly. However, the cost to make it monstrous is steep, so it’s best utilised in strategies that can ramp mana or generate value from the creature before it becomes monstrous.
