A question about undying
Asked by The_Kazekyo 9 years ago
If i have Mikaeus, the Unhallowed and also Heartless Summoning on the field and cast any 1/1 creature does the creature dies then return with undying?

but what if the creature is non-human? doesn't the +1/+1 that mikaeus gives to non-humans cancel the heartless summoning -1/-1 thus keeping the creature on the battlefield?

@The_Kazekyo you are correct.
Human 1/1 creatures will just die and stay dead. Non human 1/1s will enter as 1/1 and will havee undying. If a non human is a 0/0 then it will return to the battlefield as a 1/1. It will be a 0/0 with a +1/+1 counter on it.

I forgot about Mikaeus's pumping of non-humans. Oh well. I was thinking more along the lines of casting Young Wolf with Heartless Summoning on the battlefield.

Yes. Once the creature resolves and enters the battlefield, as soon as state-based actions are checked (immediately), it is put into the graveyard as a state-based action. Since it went to the graveyard from the battlefield. Undying triggers, and it returns the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter, and it stays on the battlefield as a 1/1.
