Sporemound, Karametra, God of Harvests, & Essence of the Wild would it work

Asked by The_Umm 10 years ago

I was wondering if someone has a Karametra, God of Harvests and a Sporemound on their side of the field and then they summon Essence of the Wild would this theory work:Karametra, God of Harvests her ability would activate bringing a Forest or Plains to the field, then the ability of Sporemound would activate putting a 1/1 Saproling token on the field but then the ability of Essence of the Wild would trigger and the token would would enter instead as a copy of Essence of the Wild . Would this copy count as a creature spell that is cast and trigger again the effect of Karametra, God of Harvests and start an ifinet cycle till you run out of Forest or Plains ?

Well, the way you're saying it, you wouldn't actually even get an Essence of the Wild token as it isn't on the field yet. But if the three were on the field and you cast something else, you would get an Essence of the Wild token.

However, the triggered ability from Sporemound is never casting a creature, even if the 1/1 Saproling becomes a 6/6 Elemental due to the static ability of Essence of the Wild . So, no, you wouldn't be setting off an infinite land search combo.

Note that Karametra, God of Harvests 's ability doesn't "activate." The ability is a triggered ability. Activated abilities are activated, triggered abilities trigger.
