A simple Vesuva question

Asked by tyforthevenom 8 years ago

If Vesuva copies Darksteel Citadel is it an indescribable artifact land?

Boza says... Accepted answer #1

Yes, copy effects copy all copiable values on a card:

706.2. ... The copiable values are the values derived from the text printed on the object (that text being name, mana cost, color indicator, card type, subtype, supertype, rules text, power, toughness, and/or loyalty), as modified by other copy effects, by its face-down status, and by as . . . enters the battlefield and as . . . is turned face up abilities that set power and toughness (and may also set additional characteristics). Other effects (including type-changing and text-changing effects), status, and counters are not copied.

So, for example, if you copy a Darksteel Citadel with vesuva, enchanted with Ensoul Artifact, you will get an unanimated indestructible land, not a 5/5 creature.
