Can you gain control of tokens?
Asked by my_gizmo 12 years ago
I'm asking specifically about Beguiler of Wills ' ability. But this question goes for any other spell that lets you gain control of creatures. I know that if you exile a token or bounce it, it will just die or go away. So, if you gain control of a token will it become yours or does it just go away?

You can gain control of a token so long as the control-changing effect is ONLY a control-changing effect and doesn't cause that token to leave the battlefield beforehand. Additionally, it cannot specify "card" because a card is a nontoken object. Beguiler of Wills 's ability can successfully gain control of creature tokens.
