This card, Pongify, would be beneficial in a deck that focuses on tempo and removal strategies, particularly in blue decks looking to control the board and disrupt the opponent's game plan. While Pongify is a solid removal option, some may argue that cards like Rapid Hybridization or Beast Within offer more versatile removal options in different colors. However, Pongify's efficiency and simplicity make it a viable choice for decks looking for efficient creature removal with a minor drawback, making it worth considering for inclusion in certain blue-based decks.

Rules

03/19/21

If the target creature is an illegal target by the time Pongify tries to resolve, the spell won’t resolve. No player creates an Ape token. If the target is legal but not destroyed (most likely because it has indestructible), its controller does create an Ape token.
