Alright. Thank you already for the detailed answer.

The Consecrated Sphinx for example would in this case be turned into a land by equiping it with Blade of Shared Souls turning it into Princess Yue, dying to the legendary rule and returning as a moon land. So I guess Copy Land would then turn into an enchantment creature Consecrated Sphinx again if I understood you correctly.

Clever Impersonator would also copy Princess Yue, die to the legendary rule, return and copy the Consecrated Sphinx still as a creature and turn into a "Consecrated Sphinx Moon Land". At this point it is unclear to me what would happen if I Copy Land that. But from your answer regarding copyable effects I guess it would also become an enchantment creature Consecrated Sphinx again?

Would that mean that Vesuva and Thespian's Stage would also enter as or become a creature Consecrated Sphinx?

Thank you again

Lots of stuff going on here, but the key thing to keep in mind is that an object's copiable values are its base characteristics as modified by the results of any copy effects being applied to it.

In the first question, the copy will just be Princess Yue. She has a different name from the one who's turned into a Moon, so the Legend Rule doesn't get applied.

For the Consecrated Sphinx question, it depends on how the Sphinx was turned into a land. If it was from a type-changing effect like Song of the Dryads then the copy will just be a Sphinx with the added enchantment type from Copy Land's effect. If it somehow became a land through a copy effect being applied to it (I don't have an example but there's certainly some way to do it), then the copy will be that land plus the enchantment type.

Because Clever Impersonator (making this a land is hard because of the restriction, but possible), Vesuva and Thespian's Stage all function by way of copy effects, any copy of them will also be a copy of whatever they copied. A copy of a Stage pretending to be something will still have the ", " ability because having that ability is part of the copy effect.

Hi,

what happens if I use Copy Land to copy a moon land Princess Yue?

I read that it enters than as Princess Yue again since that values that make her a moon land are not copyable values? Do I then need to sacrifice either of them because of the legendary rule or not since they are named differently?

Also whap happens if I use Copy Land on a moon land that was a different creature before let's say Consecrated Sphinx?

Or what happens if I use Copy Land on a moon land that was a clone like Clever Impersonator in detail?

And are those interactions the same for Vesuva & Thespian's Stage or are they different?

Sorry for the long questions but these are really complicated interactions :D

Thank you so much!

This is the first draft, I brewed this up fairly recently, I dont even own it and the tapped out deck editor suggested a 4, I don’t play CEDH, so I don’t know what CEDH really looks like. I’m not running specific cards that fit the meta because I don’t know what the meta is.

This deck would probably do well in my pod, but in no way would it win all the time, and we do not play CEDH, but we do play high power optimised decks.

As I said in the description my pods plays a lot of interaction so I added a lot as that is the pod it is designed to play in.

The only thing that I would say looks CEDH is Thorcale / Consultation and I’m thinking of swapping that out for Labman because I don’t like the CEDH win con.

The current play pattern I tend to find in playtesting is tutoring up Consecrated Sphinx or Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur and getting a copy in turn 3/4 to then draw a new hand. Mind over Matter combos with Azami, Lady of Scrolls to deck yourself.

I wish I could help you, but,

I just want to blurt out that Standstill triggering with a Consecrated Sphinx in play is bananas.

You could consider Trailblazer's Boots and/or Prowler's Helm. If you equip more than once, you save mana.

Cantrips like Opt are a good option, though technically not card advantage. The big ticket items would be Rhystic Study and The One Ring.

Otherwise, you could consider curiosity effects if you plan on connecting, Consecrated Sphinx, Fact or Fiction, or one of the blue creatures that draw you a card every instant or sorcery you cast.

It should also be noted that Saheeli's Artistry has the exact same mana cost as Consecrated Sphinx.
