How Calix, Destiny's Hand works with "temporary encahntments"?"

Asked by pedroedmarcos 4 years ago

Hey there

So, here's the thing. I play an enchantment theme deck on EDH and I use cards like Enchanted Evening and Arbiter of the Ideal. The (-3) of Calix, Destiny's Hand let me exile a creature or enchantment, so here is my question.

If I use his (-3) and target a creature my opponent controls and choose my land that has become a enchantment, but later that game the player destroyed my Enchanted Evening. Doing it so, my permanents will not be enchantments anymore, so what happens with the target that I exiled ? It will go back to the field?

It will stay in exile until the permanent you originally chose leaves the battlefield.

The way Calix's ability is written, it only cares about whether or not the enchantment you chose stays on the battlefield, not about whether it continues to be an enchantment. If something makes it stop being an enchantment, that won't interfere with the way Calix's ability works.
