As far as Over My Dead Bodies goes, it still wouldn't work. The act of discarding it will make it leave the battlefield, so if it was already attacking or blocking, the equipment would fall off, and OMDB will only let you interact with it via spells and abilities once it is declared as an attacker or blocker from the graveyard. There's just never a time when it is a creature on the battlefield during the resolution of Urza's Hot Tub's ability.

Now for Kindle the Carnage it depends on whether it was cast or not. When you discard a card with Madness (such as Fiery Temper), it goes to exile until you decide to cast it or not. If you cast it, it moves to the stack, and the LKI is from exile. If you chose not to, it goes to the graveyard, and there is a rule under madness that says it can be found. 702.35c After resolving a madness triggered ability, if the exiled card wasn’t cast and was moved to a public zone, effects referencing the discarded card can find that card. See rule 400.7i.. In either case, the mana value would be the same.

Offhand, I'd say this doesn't work, but you'll almost certainly want to wait for an official ruling from Mark. Here's my reasoning: Urza's Hot Tub is going to see it as it exists in the graveyard where it is no longer equipped so that it only has it's own name, because as soon as you discard it, it is going to leave play, as the ability of Masterful Ninja only allows it to be in the Hand and on the Battlefield, but as soon as it moves from one of those zones to a different zone (graveyard, exile, library) it ceases to be in the other. Last known information would only be relevant if the card were to have left the graveyard before the Hot Tub's ability resolved, where it would still use the characteristics it had in the graveyard, not the hand.

In practicality this is a silver-bordered question, but MaRo hasn't answered yet. I'll hopefully get a response eventually, but in the meantime I'm hoping somebody knows of a specific niche black-bordered ruling that might not exist due to irrelevancy, and I wouldn't know how to find.


If I equip a Spy Kit to a creature, does that change the card's name as well as the name of the equipped creature's?

And/or: When you discard a card for the effect of an ability that references a quality of that card (like with Kindle the Carnage), does that ability refer to that card's quality in whatever zone it's now in if it can be found, or does it refer to the card's last known information? If the latter, from which zone actually is that last known information gathered?


What I want to do is reveal Masterful Ninja from my hand to have it in my hand and on the battlefield until end of turn, equip the Masterful Ninja with Spy Kit, and then discard Masterful Ninja to Urza's Hot Tub to be able to tutor for (nearly) any creature. I'm trying to figure out if this would work.

Some options to consider to fit the monkey theme: Monkey Cage - Starts with M and can make many Ape tokens. Zodiac Monkey - Has Monkey in title. Name Dropping- can use ""gotcha" to get back cards from graveyard with Moneky in title. Urza's Hot Tub - can tutor for your favorite monkey. Pack's Disdain - for removal. Riptide Replicator or Volrath's Laboratory - make monkey tokens. Urza's Incubator - monkeys/apes cost 2 less.

These don't start with M and technically are Apes but there aren't many "monkey" cards. Uktabi Kong, Uktabi Orangutan, Gorilla Berserkers, Gorilla Chieftain, Hidden Gibbons, Treetop Village, Side to Side. You can also try Adaptive Automaton, Brass Herald, Door of Destinies or Obelisk of Urd for a Monkey / Ape "Anthem effects". Belbe's Portal to cheat monkeys into play.

Good luck with your monkey deck

Is it Urza's Hot Tub?
That'd give the page a little Sex Appeal.
Sorry, I'm just being a Smart Ass.
I'm sure whatever Remodel you want to do is for the Greater Good.
Okay, okay, I'll stop being such a Dumb Ass and Get a Life...
