Title: Complicated question.
Post by: Sparkle Ninja on February 01, 2014, 10:10:57 PM
Ok, So if you have a {Medomai The Ageless} on the battlefield and an {Artisan of Forms} and you swung and hit with medomai last turn, which gave you an extra turn. Could you swing with the artisan of forms then cast an instant on it and turn it into medomai and hit for a third turn?

Yes: Medomai can't attack, but she can be attacking, so the artisan can hit for an extra turn.

would have posted faster, but I was looking for the relevant rule: 506.4a. Once a creature has been declared as an attacking or blocking creature, spells or abilities that would have kept that creature from attacking or blocking don't remove the creature from combat.

Legend rule was changed, now you decide which one will be placed in the GY, obviously choosing the one that can't attack.

Sorry guys. The text on medomai says that it cannot attack during "extra turns".  No go.

The question is "what if you turn the {artisan of forms} into {medomai the ageless} after it attacks?" which works.
