Five Kids in a Trenchcoat

Biovisionary Rule

New 13 Mar 2024 Asked by violet-returned 27 Comments

If I have a Biovisionary in play, and I make my Five Kids in a Trenchcoat into a copy of it, do I win the game?


I don’t think so, “counts as five creatures” is not the same as “is five different creatures”. The former only has one name.Note, this is just my best guess.

Hat Count

Would "Brims" Barone put 1 or 5 +1/+1 counters on Five Kids in a Trenchcoat?


He puts one +1/+1 counter on each creature wearing a hat. It doesn’t matter how many hats, as long as there’s one. The creature never gets more than one +1/+1 counter.

Creature Types in Playtest

"Child is a creature type because little girl. How come Five Kids in a Trenchcoat isn't a child?" Also, playtest cards are not silver-bordered cards and Child is only a creature type in silver-bordered land.


Playtest cards are not black border in any realistic sense. There are plenty of things on the playtest cards that I believe won’t actually work in black border (or would demand a huge reworking of the rules to work). They could have had “silver border” creature types. Anything being on them doesn’t add them to black border.

Creature Type Consistency

The playtest cards, being more jokes than actual cards, didn’t go through our normal process that would have caught things like that.
