Cloudgoat Ranger

Mishra's Toy Workshop Ruling

One of your rulings on Mishra's Toy Workshop says (or at least implies) it can't be used to cast Cloudgoat Ranger, Elspeth, Knight Errant, and Doubling Season. Yet you implied in another ruling that it can be used to cast Myr Battlesphere. I don't understand the difference between casting Myr Battlesphere and Cloudgoat Ranger (they both create tokens with ETB, and only ETB). What is the difference?

Mishra’s Toy Factory can be used or any spell or effect that directly makes tokens. I’ve ruled that an “enter the battlefield” effect counts.

Silver-Border Usage

Silver-Border question: can you use Mishra's Toy Factory to cast Cloudgoat Ranger? how about Elspeth, Knight Errant?

Mishra’s Toy Workshop can only be used to cast spells and activate abilities that actively are making tokens. You cannot use it, for example, to cast a creature (let’s say Phelddagrif) that has the ability to make tokens. You could though use it on the activation that makes them. So, casting Raise the Alarm, yes. Casting Doubling Season, no.

Doubling Season Enjoyment

I always thought Doubling season was a "meh" card until I played a cloudgoat ranger with doubling season in play. Thanks for an awesome card :)

You’re welcome. Next, try playing it with thallids. : )
