What it does

Flying

Whenever one or more Birds you control deal combat damage to a player, choose one —

• You may put a Bird creature card from your hand or graveyard onto the battlefield with a finality counter on it.

• Put a +1/+1 counter on each Bird you control.

• Draw a card.

Rulings

4 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2024-07-26

    Multiple finality counters on a single permanent are redundant.

  • 2024-07-26

    Finality counters aren’t keyword counters, and a finality counter doesn’t give any abilities to the permanent it’s on. If that permanent loses its abilities and then would go to a graveyard, it will still be exiled instead.

  • 2024-07-26

    Finality counters don’t stop permanents from going to zones other than the graveyard from the battlefield. For example, if a permanent with a finality counter on it would be put into its owner’s hand from the battlefield, it does so normally.

  • 2024-07-26

    Finality counters work on any permanent, not only creatures. If a permanent with a finality counter on it would be put into a graveyard from the battlefield, exile it instead.

Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.

5 printings, newest first. Prices are the market figures Scryfall publishes, refreshed nightly. A printing with no figure shows a dash rather than a zero, because Scryfall publishes none for some of them.

Prices from Scryfall, which tracks the TCGplayer and Cardmarket markets. They move daily and are a guide rather than a quote. Search TCGplayer for Kastral, the Windcrested. It runs a name search across every version, which covers the printings TCGplayer publishes no direct link to.

Aggregated from Commander games tracked in TurnZero HQ. Every figure counts decks and games only. No individual deck list, player or playgroup is identified. Win rates are withheld below 5 completed games, where the sample is too small to mean anything.
