Title: mutavault + door of destinies
Post by: DirtyMustachio on July 23, 2013, 02:34:53 PM
build your deck, and ^ work together like a charm.. and your land creature doods and whatever else your running just gets dumber and dumber and dumber especially if you have multiple vaults

{Mutavault}, {Door of Destinies}.

Something to note, {Mutavault} does not trigger Door. It enters as a land. Also, lands are not cast. This is still a nice little combo regardless though!

I don't think the vault will trigger the door. Because the vault isn't a creature when it enters the battlefield

Doesn't it enter the battlefield when you activate the ability?

That is correct. It will not trigger an enter the battlefield ability as its already on the battlefield as a land. Same goes for keyrunes ( {Izzet Keyrune}) and double sided cards when they transform ( {Huntmaster of the Fells}), etc.

Nope, you can't populate, it's not a token.

no. I mean make a bunch of tokens and populate them to trigger it

Also  {Door of Destinies} triggers from a creature spell type being cast. Not its etb.
Sorry to add to the confusion. :)

Ok than...use lots of cheap creatures of a certain type, then generate a bunch of tokens. Or you could use it with the {wild cantor} combo

Seems like a tribal card, slivers, myr, zombies... Seems like a neat idea to bad a deck around...

Make bant tokens, {cackling counterpart} a vault, and beat face with token lands, using populate to boot:)

Does CloudShift work with Door of Destinies?
Title: Re: mutavault + door of destinies
Post by: Double-O-Scotch on July 31, 2013, 07:09:38 AM
No, cause it would stil ETB as a land.

Enter the battlefield effects do not trigger {door of destinies}. Door triggers only when a spell of the chosen creature type is cast.

{cloudstone curio}, {Door of Destinies}, {crimson kolbolds},
And just to be stupid, {genesis chamber}, {xenograft}. Maybe {fling}, {rite of consumption} or that new one that doesn't need a sac.
