About Coveted Peacock

Coveted Peacock, Creature — bird, designed by Christopher Burdett first released in Aug, 2016 in the set Conspiracy: Take the Crown and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.56.

A deck that focuses on aggressive strategies and disrupting opponents' plans would benefit from including Coveted Peacock. The goad ability can force defensive creatures to attack, potentially opening up opportunities for the player to deal damage or create favorable combat situations. However, depending on the specific deck strategy, there may be better options available such as Edric, Spymaster of Trest, which not only encourages attacking but also provides card draw. While Coveted Peacock may not be a top-tier card, it could still see play in niche decks that can capitalize on its abilities effectively.

Rules

08/23/16

Being goaded isn’t an ability the creature has. Once it’s been goaded, it must attack as detailed above even if it loses all abilities.

08/23/16

If a creature you control has been goaded by multiple opponents, it must attack one of your opponents that hasn’t goaded it, as that fulfills the maximum number of goad requirements. If a creature you control has been goaded by each of your opponents, you choose which opponent it attacks.

08/23/16

If, during a player’s declare attackers step, a creature that player controls that’s been goaded is tapped, is affected by a spell or ability that says it can’t attack, or hasn’t been under that player’s control continuously since the turn began (and doesn’t have haste), then it doesn’t attack. If there’s a cost associated with having a creature attack a player, its controller isn’t forced to pay that cost, so it doesn’t have to attack in that case either.
