can you put morphs onto the battlefield with effects
Asked by Austinb1216 5 years ago
mostly hoping there's a way for wild pair to let you put a morph onto the battlefield as a 2/2 after casting one. I doubt it works that way but I really want it to
To elaborate on Madcookie's answer, the reason you can't put a morph into play this way is because in all zones other than the battlefield, a morph card only has the characteristics of its front face. It can only enter the battlefield as a morph instead of its front face if you use the morph ability's alternate cost, which as mentioned requires casting.

Wild Pair cares about power and toughtness of the creature cast and casting a creature with morph as 2/2 for would trigger it, however you would only be able to look for another creature with printed 4 total statline (0/4, 1/3 etc) on its front side. Also if you were to find say Battering Craghorn that has morph you have to put in(not cast) onto the battlefield on its front side as 3/1 and not face-down as 2/2 creature.
