However, if you don't control a creature with power 4 or greater as your end step begins, the ability won't trigger at all. It's not possible to put a creature with power 4 or greater onto the battlefield or increase a creature's power to 4 or greater during the end step in time to have the ability trigger. If you don't control any creatures with power 4 or greater when the ability resolves, the ability won't do anything.
