Enforcer Griffin

Filler in its purest form: five mana buys a 3/4 flier and nothing else. No enters trigger, no activated ability, no keyword beyond the flying its type already implies. The griffin has been the vanilla-evasion slot in white commons since the earliest sets, and this is that role reduced to its numbers. The 3/4 line is where the design brief shows itself: the extra point of toughness over the traditional 2/2 or 3/3 griffin means the body survives the small burn and single-block trades that decide slow ground stalls, and it trades up against the two-power fliers that share its space. Everything the card is meant to do lives in that stat spread. It fills a curve, it holds the air, and it asks nothing back, which is precisely the mandate of a common at this cost. There is no ceiling being reached for here, and no argument to make about efficiency, because efficiency was never the design goal. What it is instead is a clean, honest expression of a role that white has needed a body for in every era: a competent evasive creature with no strings, built to be reliable rather than exciting.
