Equipment Control Clarification

New • 31 Jul 2016 • Asked by mgmegadog • 22 Comments

Your statement on equipments only equipping creatures you control isn't QUITE true. The equip ability can only target creatures you control, but equipment can be attached to creatures you don't control, such as if control of one of the two changes, or via cards like Magnetic Theft.

You can only equip creatures you control. Equipment will stay on creatures that change control.

Warhammer Function Change

No Mark, sorry, but you are mistaken on this one. Loxodon Warhammer was functionally changed by giving it lifelink. The original print of Loxodon Warhammer in Mirrodin had a triggered effect that works like Spirit Link. It even mattered more in some cases when the opponent "stole" it through Magnetic Theft and similar effects. This shows WotC has a conflicting policy on reprints and gives leverage to the case that Armadillo Cloak could have been printed in GTC with lifelink.

The change of Loxodon Warhammer is considered a mistake.
