Equipment Interactions with Chromium
Asked by Icedragon100 5 years ago
Hello! I've been brewing a Chromium, the Mutable Commander deck! I was curious if Chromium, the Mutable would keep abilities of Equipments if you were to use his discard ability? An example of this would be Equiping something such as Sword of Fire and Ice Will Chromium, the Mutable keep said abilities from the sword when he shrinks?

In cases where equipment gives creatures abilities like Paradise Mantle then timestamp order determines whether or not Chromium has the ability or not. I.E.: If you activate Chromium's ability then equip him he has the ability, if he's equipped and activates the ability he loses it.
In the case of Sword of Fire and Ice however some of the abilities belong to the equipment, not the creature, and layers keep the P/T buff because Chromium's ability sets base power and toughness. So Chromium would lose the color protections (depending on timestamp) but the Sword's triggers would still function.
