Gotta say, I love the flavor on this card.

"Only a gargoyle would take such delight in getting its ass struck by lightning."

Ironically (or perhaps not?), it's activated ability allows it to survive Lightning Bolt.

Very deliberately designed to be immune to Lighting Bolt, it's in his flavor text and it's in his art (he's being struck by lightning and laughing about it. Lighting Bolt being red's primary removal at the time, this was at least playable against a red deck.

Tap him after he blocks. He's still blocking, even if the attacker has flying, and is now 0/4. Better if you have a Knighthood or Guided Strike to give him first strike (under the old damage rules, anyway). Or tap to protect him from damage spells.

Stupid card. I don't see the point. I guess you could save him from a lightning bolt. Other than that, he's a 2/2 flyer for 3. Big deal.

Because god knows blocking is useless under all circumstance.

@ A3Kitsune

Giving him first strike is the way to make it work under new damage rules - priority is passed between first strike damage and normal damage.

Leering Gargoyle uses Fartning Bolt!

It's super effective
