Angel's Tomb
Asked by Valentine35 12 years ago
can you attack with card:Angel's Tomb? or does it have summoning sickness? if so what good is it if it goes away after your turn you can't use it as a blocker. Also can it die if it attacks? and can i equip stuff to it? then does my equipment come off it after my turn since it isn't a creature anymore? basically how the hell do i use this card?

Demarge is correct.
You can use card:Angel's Tomb as a blocker if you have a card:Stitcher's Apprentice, Cloudshift , or anything that makes a creature enter the battlefield under your control during your opponent's turn. Also, creatures that aren't creatures all the time, like card:Angel's Tomb or man-lands, can give you an edge over an opponent running sorcery-speed creature removal or boardwipes.

Also, yes, it can die while it's a creature if it's dealt lethal damage or gets Doom Blade d.

Very interesting! That answered most of my questions about it too. However I was playing someone who played 2 creatures and used Cloudshift on one of them. Then he attacked claiming his card:Angel's Tomb was now a 9/9. Is this even possible???

No, it's still just a 3/3. It doesn't say it gets +3/+3, because it's not a critter...it becomes 3/3. Becoming 3/3 twice more still leaves it...3/3 =D

No, card:Angel's Tomb's ability make's it a 3/3; it's power and toughness isn't affected beyond that. It's ability triggering multiple times a turn are redundant ("I make it a 3/3 creature, then I make it a 3/3 creature again, then I make it a 3/3 creature once again.")

technically all permanents have summoning sickness on them the turn they are played, just only creatures are effected. So when Angel's Tomb becomes a creature it can attack if it's been under your control since before the beginning of that turn. And yes you can equip/enchant/Giant Growth it to your heart's content while it's a creature and yes the equipment will fall off and yes creature aura's will fall off when it ceases to be a creature.
