That bounce spell is pretty nasty
It's the blue [Engineered Explosives].
Blue has {engineered explosives}. It's called {engineered explosives}.

We now have a one mana walker and he's really good.
W 2/1
2w gains indestructible
At end of combat, if he and 2 other dudes attacked flip him

+2 up to 1 creature attacks Gideon
+1 target creature gains indestructible. Untap it
0 becomes a 4/4 with indestructible prevent all damage.
Another walker for my TL... Damn, I'm dropping so much money on just walkers lol

That's insanely good.

In EDH, if you animate Gideon with his 0 ability, does it still count as Commander damage?

Commander is still commander

Just as it may enter the command zone rather than be shuffled, exiled, destroyed etc

I believe it does not because it's a new entity, and is not named -Not Gideon- like the commander originally is. However {Akroma, Angel of Vengence} the red one still deals combat damage when it's a 2/2 morphed so I'm not really sure.

Commanderness is a quality of the physical card itself, so he should be dealing commander damage as both Kytheon and Gideon

Yup. If you manage to animate one of the C14 commander-planeswalkers, they'll do commander damage as well.

I play tokens in modern. Gideon isn't going in this deck. Too clunky.
