Title: Monstrosity
Post by: Oldschoolmtgnoob on October 13, 2014, 07:37:45 PM
I was going to tack this on to another thread but it was pretty long.

How is monstrosity qualified on a creature? By the counters on it? Or is it a characteristic stuck to it after mana has been paid? Will exiling it and bringing it back reset that ability to use again?

Whenever a permanent changes zones, it loses all memory of its previous self. So, flickering a monstrous creature will return it to the field as a brand new creature. No monsterous...

Hey thanks for the Lightning fast responses!

Any cards that do that in red or green does anyone know?

It's a pretty sweet card. Also, {Roaring Primadox}.

Yeah that {roaring primadox} is a pretty underrated card I think. I'm using him right now in my deck and tapping sapprolings to put out {living totem} every turn for free. Or use him on {genesis hyrda}. I freaking love that card. Now I just need one of those {broodmother hydra} baby cannons
