Copying Duplicant's Imprint Ability

Asked by Popsicle.Season 11 years ago

Say I copy Duplicant's imprint ability with Strionic Resonator. What p/t and creature types does it get? (for the sake of the question, let's say the original imprint targets Storm Crow and the copy targets Geist of Saint Traft )

If you take a look at the Oracle text for Duplicant you'll see that it has been errata'ed to "Duplicant has the power, toughness, and creature types of the last creature card exiled with Duplicant.".

Which means if you copy the imprint with Strionic Resonator the stack will look like this.

Copied Imprint, targeting Geist of Saint Traft

Imprint, targeting Storm Crow

Resolving from the top, would exile Geist, making Duplicant a 2/2, then exiling Storm Crow making it a 1/2.

Ah, sorry. I didn't look at the oracle text, I only looked at my copy of the card itself.

So you know: the "...last creature..." update to the text of Duplicant was a very recent change, made specifically to handle the interaction with Strionic Resonator , so don't feel bad about missing it.
