Would Contagion Clasp's "enters the battlefield" ability trigger if I copied it with Saheeli Rai?

Asked by boneknitter 6 years ago

If I have both Saheeli Rai and Contagion Clasp on the battlefield, if I used the second ability of Saheeli Rai to copy Contagion Clasp, would its "enters the battlefield" ability trigger, allowing me to place a -1/-1 counter on another creature? I realize I'm copying an artifact already on the field, but the copy isn't on the field, so I would think it would trigger again.

Yes. Token copies enter the battlefield and trigger the appropriate enter the battlefield effects just like the cards they're copying.

Cool. That's what I thought, but just wanted to be sure. Thanks!
