What if I give it flying while it's a 3/2? Cast Jump or something on it.

Oh, now I know the point of the Without Flying clause. If that weren't there, you could make it a 2/1 flier then activate the second ability for a 3/2 flier.

But really, just making 3/2 flier for {4} is rather lame.

2.5/5 for interesting flavor.

2 mana to block storm crow, another two to survive.

@NARFNra: You can still. You pay 2 to make it a 2/1 with flying, swing, then on the combat damage step, pay 2 to make it a 3/2, when it's too late for your opponent to block it with a non-flying creature.

It doesn't interact favorably with stuff like Gravitational Shift, though, but in most cases you can deal 3 through non-fliers.

Hey look! An old, complex card that doesn't have an errata.
