Stoneshock Giant is one of those cards players keep asking about. Here is, in plain words, what its official text says, the rulings published by Wizards of the Coast, and the combos players actually run.
Official card text
: Monstrosity 3. (If this creature isn't monstrous, put three +1/+1 counters on it and it becomes monstrous.) When this creature becomes monstrous, creatures without flying your opponents control can't block this turn.
How it works : Stoneshock Giant
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
If blockers have already been declared when Stoneshock Giant's last ability resolves, those blocks won't change or become undone.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
Your opponents can't assign any creature without flying to block that turn, even if that creature had flying or wasn't on the battlefield under one of your opponent's control when Stoneshock Giant's ability resolved.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
Once a creature becomes monstrous, it can't become monstrous again. If the creature is already monstrous when the monstrosity ability resolves, nothing happens.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #4· Wizards of the Coast
Monstrous isn't an ability that a creature has. It's just something true about that creature. If the creature stops being a creature or loses its abilities, it will continue to be monstrous.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #5· Wizards of the Coast
An ability that triggers when a creature becomes monstrous won't trigger if that creature isn't on the battlefield when its monstrosity ability resolves.
No other card is named in this ruling.
