Interaction between Blim, Comedic Genius and Hunted Dragon

Asked by CamraMaan 4 months ago

The main question is regarding whether or not a creature token created under an opponent's control by me (in this instance by my Hunted Dragon) will count as being owned by me or them...? I'm building a Kardur, Doomscourge deck that will be creating a lot of token creatures under my opponents' control, so Blim, Comedic Genius could possibly have a lot of synergy with it.

TIA

Hunted Dragon received some eratta when they changed the phrasing of how tokens are made. The new text is "When Hunted Dragon enters the battlefield, target opponent creates three 2/2 white Knight creature tokens with first strike." Since your opponent is the one who creates the tokens, they are the one who own the tokens. The person under whose control a token enters is the person who created, and therefore owns, the token.

111.2. The player who creates a token is its owner. The token enters the battlefield under that player’s control.

As a side note, it is weird that Hunted Dragon by default links to the third newest printing instead of the newest one. Linking the newest one would be a The List printing with old text and I would have to force the Commander Anthology Volume II anyway to show the correct Oracle text on the card, but it is weird that it defaults to C15.
