Gheewhoo! Wow. Overly broad Horseshoe Crab hoser FTW! Or more amusingly, is it in fact a Morphling hoser?
Wow. My brain boggles at what this does.
It's a hoser, for sure, but I made it for several other reasons. I made it so that tapping planeswalkers accomplishes something, and so that artifacts and enchantments can be shut off by tapping them, so you can stop a player from benefitting from Font of Mythos or Paradox Haze. Of course, I'm sure it has many uses outside of what I've considered. With Urabrask the Hidden it shuts down ETBs abilities. It also turns off Flanking and Bushido, though I don't think it affects Battlecry. The list goes on.
Ooh. I think it does get battle cry, actually. The game has no reason to look back in time to before attacking tapped the creature, so it looks at permanents just after the declaration of attackers to see what abilities trigger.
The one-sided Torpor Orb with Urabrask is pretty clever. This could definitely show up in tournaments.
I made this tap only nonland permanents.
But what if this becomes tapped? 0_o
Why would that be a problem? It would lose its ability to tap things, which it could only activate if untapped, anyway.
It's a static ability. Never mind.
Oh. Yes. Yes, it is. For some reason I thought you were confused by the second ability.
Previously "Tapped permanents lose all activated and triggered abilities."
I didn't realize this 2 years ago (yikes!), but this is reminiscent of the original artifact rules.
Isn't it crazy sometimes when you look back at how long ago you or someone else made something on here?
It is reminiscent of how artifacts used to be turned off by tapping.
