Drana and Linvala stealing Marwyn, the Nurturer's ability
Asked by Faiyy 10 months ago
Since Marwyn, the Nurturer's activated ability says "Add green equal to Marwyn's power", Drana and Linvala's activated ability would say the same. Would Drana and Linvala look at my opponent's Marwyn's power to tap for mana or would it just tap for 0?

It would be based on Drana and Linvala's power. When something uses its own name in the text of an ability (without specifically saying something like "a card named N"), it means "this object right here". If something else gains that ability, it will keep the "this object" meaning, so in your example that means Drana and Linvala will have an ability that says "Add an amount of equal to Drana and Linvala's power".
