Chainer Nightmare Adept
Asked by Pedrodamus 2 years ago
Does the second part of Chainer, Nightmare Adept require you to "cast" a creature spell? Would a creature get haste that enters from a Reanimate, Sisay, Weatherlight Captain, or anything that cheats creatures into play, or no?
The only conditions on the card are that it "enters the battlefield," which is the triggered ability, and that it was not "cast from your hand" specifically. That means that if it is reanimated from the graveyard, cast for the graveyard, blinked, cast from exile, anything really would work as long as those two conditions are met.

Hi,
I don't see why a creature wouldn't get haste when brought back from the graveyard, with Reanimate or Sisay, Weatherlight Captain. In the first case, you play a sorcery spell that makes a creature enter the battlefield from the graveyard (--> You didn't cast it from your hand, you casted the reanimate...)
In the second case, you activate Sisay's ability to have a creature enter the battlefield from the graveyard, and again, you don't cast it, you activate an activated ability
--> In both cases, the creature would get haste from Chainer.
Even playing something like Haakon, Stromgald Scourge would work, since - even though you cast Haakon, you don't cast if from your hand, but from your graveyard, so Chainer, Nightmare Adept's ability would also trigger.
