Even magic rings were not much use against wolves—especially against the evil packs that lived near Goblin-infested mountains.

Rulings

The Chief Warg's triggered ability will check when you attack to see if you control a creature with power 4 or greater. If you don't, the ability won't trigger at all. It will not check again when it resolves, so the trigger will resolve even if you no longer control a creature with power 4 or greater.
