Animar, Soul of Elements in EDH

Asked by Solaninalos 13 years ago

If my general is Animar, Soul of Elements , will it get a +1/+1 counter every time I cast a creature spell, even if I have him in the Commander's zone? And would his CMC reducing ability be applied from there as well?

RiotMaker says... Accepted answer #1

No. He is not on the battlefield, thus his abilities aren't even there aswell. So no to both questions.

RiotMaker is right. The abilities of a permanent card (creature, land, artifact, enchantment, planeswalker) only work while it's on the battlefield, unless they specifically say they work in some other zone.
