  • Does 'Elder Dragon' count as two subtypes?
  • Because if so, I think I've completed my Mystery Challenge: Create a creature with two subtypes that gives you protection from something!
  • @CrimsonFox Yes, any non-hyphenated words in the type line are different types, hence Elder Dragon = 2 but Assembly-Worker =1.
  • Cool, thank you
  • Another box please!
  • @jpastor "only flavor text" is just another way of saying "story and no abilities" right? Can the card have reminder text?

    Also known as a "vanilla" creature.
  • @CrimsonFox
    Your mystery box contains:
    • A Mystery Challenge: Create a monoblue creature with Persist (When this creature dies, if it had no -1/-1 counters on it, return it to the battlefield under its owner's control with a -1/-1 counter on it.)
  • Right, so if reminder text doesn't pertain to abilities and there are no abilities in the text box, then that works?
  • Not to answer your question, @Jadefire, but I believe a creature without abilities could also include reminder text. However, a "vanilla creature" is used to express the story through flavor text, therefore would only include flavor and no reminder text. That's my opinion, and I'm sure @jpastor will respond with his intent of wether or not reminder text would be allowed.
  • The intent was vanilla, but you've found a loophole in my wording, so go with what ya wish @Jadefire
  • Not a loophole, Phyrexian mana has reminder text, that's all.  So it's a vanilla creature in every other respect.  I'm only adding the reminder text as a courtesy but I could get away without it since most people know it can be paid with mana of the corresponding colour or 2 life.  
  • I'm pretty sure it is, but is a blue snow creature still counted as a monoblue creature?
  • Mystery Challenge: Create a mono-white Vampire creature card.
