Garrison Griffin gives a target Knight flying and vigilance every time it or another Knight you control attacks — repeatable evasion and defensive upside stapled to a two-mana body. It's a role-player, not a powerhouse, and it lives or dies by how many other Knights are swinging alongside it.

Garrison Griffin is a Commander card in practice — Knight tribal is where it has a critical mass of attackers to trigger it repeatedly, and that shell mostly lives in 100-card decks. In competitive formats like Modern and Legacy, a 2/2 for two that buffs one creature per combat is too slow and too narrow to see real play. Pauper is the one non-Commander format where budget tribal strategies exist, but Knights lack the density and payoffs there to make Garrison Griffin worthwhile. Run it in Commander or skip it.

Price Context
Current price
$0.11 bulk tier
At $0.11, Garrison Griffin is deep bulk — the kind of card you pick up as a throw-in without a second thought. Bulk commons and uncommons with narrow tribal applications don't climb in price, so don't expect this to move.
