Will Necrotic Ooze gain a +1 counter from using Krav, the Unredeemed activated ability?

Asked by triptochip 3 years ago

If i have Necrotic Ooze on the battlefield, and i have Krav, the Unredeemed in my graveyard, and i activate Krav's ability through Nec ooze, will nec ooze get a +1/+1 counter from it? The text on Kravs card states that you put the counter on Krav so i was wondering if that would mean nec ooze would or would not gain the counter?

It gets the counter.

201.4b If an ability of an object refers to that object by name, and an object with a different name gains that ability, each instance of the first name in the gained ability that refers to the first object by name should be treated as the second name.
