What it does
All creatures able to block target creature this turn do so.
Ferocious — That creature gains indestructible until end of turn if you control a creature with power 4 or greater.
Rulings
4 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.
- 2014-09-20
Ferocious abilities of instants and sorceries that don’t use the word “instead” will provide an additional effect if you control a creature with power 4 or greater as they resolve.
- 2014-09-20
If, during the declare blockers step, a creature is tapped or is affected by a spell or ability that says it can’t block, then it doesn’t block. If there’s a cost associated with having that creature block, its controller isn’t forced to pay that cost. If the player doesn’t, the creature doesn’t block in that case either.
- 2014-09-20
Roar of Challenge doesn’t give any creatures the ability to block the target creature. It just forces those creatures that are already able to block the creature to do so.
- 2014-09-20
Some ferocious abilities that appear on instants and sorceries use the word “instead.” These spells have an upgraded effect if you control a creature with power 4 or greater as they resolve. For these, you only get the upgraded effect, not both effects.
Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.

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.
