Asked by Tronacus 11 years ago
Artisan of Forms If i have her become a copy of a Legendary Creature I control would that kill one of them or could I have her and the Legendary Creature on the battle field?
Artisan of Forms isn't legendary but it would be a copy of one.

The Legendary supertype is a copiable value. Copies of Legendary things are themselves Legendary and would cause the Legend Rule to move one of your choice to the graveyard as a state-based effect.
That is why Sakashima the Impostor gets to keep its name. So it can copy other legends without something dying.

Technically the legendary rule does not force you to sacrifice, the creature is simply put into the graveyard.

I assume that was directed at KrosanTusker, Zaghrog? Because I pretty deliberately did not use the word sacrifice in my response.
KrosanTusker says... #1
If they are both legendary and have the same name, one of them has to be sacrificed as a state-based action so you can't keep both of them.
