Altered Ego & Hydroid Krasis

Asked by Paeldroth 4 years ago

Hey all,

I'm curious how casting Altered Ego on a Hydroid Krasis would resolve? Would the new Krasis' card draw/life gain ability trigger off of the new cost of X? Is that even going to trigger?

Thanks!

No, you would not gain any life nor draw any cards.

The ability of Hydroid Krasis that draw cards and gains life is a cast trigger. Altered Ego isn't a copy of Hydroid Krasis until it hits the battlefield. So, you wouldn't even get a trigger from the casting of Altered Ego.
