Opal Guardian (Time Spiral #30)

Opal Guardian {W}{W}{W}

Enchantment

When an opponent casts a creature spell, if Opal Guardian is an enchantment, Opal Guardian becomes a 3/4 Gargoyle creature with flying and protection from red.

It was a moment in time, cast in stone—a moment whose time had come again.
