Will a Swift Reconfiguration make Sol Ring no longer a creature if Xenic Poltergeist was what made it a creature?

Asked by Ev1_ 5 days ago

As asked in tittle. If i have an artifact on the battlefield and make it a creature using an effect like Xenic Poltergeist, and it later gets enchanted with Swift Reconfiguration, will it make it not a creature?

Polaris says... Accepted answer #1

In this case, order matters. Xenic Poltergeist and Swift Reconfiguration are both type-changing effects, so the most recent timestamp will apply. First, Xenic Poltergeist will make your Sol Ring into an artifact creature, and then Swift Reconfiguration will make it into a noncreature Artifact - Vehicle.

If you were to activate Xenic Poltergeist again (with a second copy, or on a later turn), that effect would now have the most recent timestamp and your Sol Ring would now be a 1/1 Artifact Creature - Vehicle.
