Grenzo and mdfc

Asked by koylucumert 3 years ago

so in my Grenzo, Dungeon Warden commander deck, if I have Blackbloom Rogue  ^Flip on the bottom of my deck and activate grenzo, can I put the rogue as a land instead? since its a creature card with power 2 in my yard and grenzo doesnt say put that creature on the battlefield and instead says put it (referring to the card) on the battlefield

Polaris says... Accepted answer #1

No, you can only play the back side of an MDFC with an effect that lets you "play" or "cast" that card type. Crucible of Worlds lets you play the land side of Blackbloom Rogue  ^Flip from your grave since it lets you "play" lands.

However, any effect that's just looking at cards, like Grenzo's, will only see the front face of the card and can only put the front face into play. Similarly, you can't find the back side of Blackbloom Rogue with a card that lets you search for lands. You only consider the characteristics of the front face except while playing or casting the card or while it's in play, when you consider the face you chose.
