Grasping Giant
Creature — Giant
Vigilance
Whenever this creature becomes blocked by a creature, exile that creature until this creature leaves the battlefield.
Mirinthes thought death was seconds away when the giant's fist closed around him. Two days later, he was praying for death's release.

Grasping Giant doesn’t become unblocked when the creatures blocking it are exiled. Unless it gains trample, it won’t deal combat damage.

Auras attached to the exiled creature will be put into their owners’ graveyards. Any Equipment will become unattached and remain on the battlefield. Any counters on the exiled creature will cease to exist. When the card returns to the battlefield, it will be a new object with no connection to the card that was exiled.

If Grasping Giant leaves the battlefield before its triggered ability resolves, the blocking creature won’t be exiled.
