Urborg Stalker’s ability will trigger at the beginning of your upkeep as well.

2008-04-01wotc

This ability checks whether the player controls any nonblack, nonland permanents twice: once when it would trigger, and once when it resolves. If all the player’s nonland permanents are black at the time the ability would trigger, it doesn’t trigger at all. If all the player’s nonland permanents are black at the time the ability would resolve, it’s countered.

This printing is one of 2 catalogued treatments from WTH — the lineup includes Nonfoil alongside the standard finish. Across our catalog the Rarix library tracks every variant in the same family so collectors can compare price, scarcity and demand inside a single lineage.

Card #85 of *Weatherlight*, the set that shipped alongside the June 1997 Weatherlight release.

Card type: Creature — Horror, color identity black, printed at rare. Rares occupy the bottom-of-pack rare slot in standard boosters. Mana cost: {3}{B} (4 converted).

Legal in Legacy, Vintage, and Commander. This printing is on Wizards of the Coast's Reserved List — Wizards has committed never to reprint cards on that list, which underwrites a structural scarcity floor on every surviving copy.

EDHrec ranks this card #28,017 in Commander, putting it in the fringe-play tier of the format's playable pool.
