If I made copies of bounce lands as they entered the battlefield will the token’s etb effect trigger?

Asked by Foxja 2 years ago

If I had esix, fractal bloom on the battlefield, and I played something like sylvan’s awakening, then created tokens and made them a copy of my bounce land, would the bounce lands etb effect trigger and bounce my lands?

You can link cards by enclosing their name in double brackets.

Yes, copies have the exact text printed on what they copy as modified by other copy effects, by its face-down status, and by “as . . . enters the battlefield” and “as . . . is turned face up” abilities that set power and toughness. So the copies will trigger the ETB to bounce lands. The copies also will not be animate lands and will enter tapped. (Unless you are counting the lairs as bounce lands, those don't enter tapped.)
