When an object changes for another, does it trigger "lose control" ?

Asked by Darkshadow128 5 years ago

I have multiple questions with Coffin Queen:

  • If a Coffin Queen becomes a copy of another creature (let's say with Cytoshape), do I lose control of the reanimated creature? If not, on later turns, can the Queen reanimate a second creature so I have two in total?

  • Does it work the same way with Humility (All creatures lose all abilities)? If not, how's it different?

Please link all cards in your question using double brackets.

Coffin Queen

Cytoshape

Humility

When a card references itself by name it means "the card this text is on" if the card changes names or just never had the name printed in the ability (like if you have Coffin Queen in your graveyard and a Necrotic Ooze on the battlefield) then you are not losing control of the card. However; the ability to reanimate is the same ability as the one that exiles the card if Coffin Queen is ever untapped or if you lose control of her. Therefore when she is next untapped you will exile the reanimated creature, even if she no longer has the ability that reanimated it.
