Title: Skarrg Guildmage, Ambush Commander
Post by: Birdbrain on February 08, 2013, 09:30:24 PM
If you have an {ambush commander} out, could you turn a forest into a 4/4 elemental with {Skargg guildmage}?

I think the awnser Is yes, but just want to make sure

Yes. As long as the targeted card is a land, you can make it a 4/4. The Ambush Commander says the elves are still land. As to whether it keeps the subtype of elf after becoming the 4/4 elemental (assuming you're targeting a forest), I'm unsure.

I'm pretty sure it'll be both subtypes

Actually no, pretty sure it's one or the other. Oh I don't know anymore I'm hung over

Yes you can. Also, it would be just an elemental, because it doesn't say "in addition to its other types".

Ah man. I wanted to have an elf elemental. Guess it won't happen, just like tere will probably never be a goblin fairy
