If archwing dragon dies does it still go back to your hand at the end of the turn

From the future comes....rulings 5/1/2012: {Archwing Dragon} is only returned to its owner's hand if it's on the battlefield.

Once it dies it's not archwing dragon anymore for future reference.

Alright thanks, I know it's probably a dumb question but figured I'd ask anyways

Nah, not really.  It goes back every end step.  Even if you skip the trigger on your turn, it'll get bounced at the end of theirs.   :(

It's a triggered ability so it's always going to trigger during the end step

Well it still gives you a blocker during their turn.

Someone who needs a blocker

paying 6 mana repeatedly for a blocker? remember you wouldn't get to attack with the dragon in that case

I know, if you're desperate you could, but a red 4/4 flier for 2RR really wants to be in aggressive decks. Not the kind that might play Sundial.
I see it more as a 4 damage {Lava Axe} that you can recast over and over.
