Estrid, the Masked // Estrid, the Masked

Wizards of the Coast 7 Jun 2024

If a spell or ability would destroy both an Aura with umbra armor and the creature it's enchanting at the same time, umbra armor's effect will save the enchanted creature from being destroyed. Instead, the spell or ability will destroy the Aura in two different ways at the same time, but the result is the same as destroying it once.

Wizards of the Coast 7 Jun 2024

Umbra armor's effect is applied no matter why the enchanted creature would be destroyed: because it's been dealt lethal damage, or because it's being affected by an effect that says to "destroy" it (such as Breathe Your Last). In either case, all damage is removed from the creature and the Aura is destroyed instead.

Wizards of the Coast 7 Jun 2024

If a creature enchanted with an Aura that has umbra armor has indestructible, lethal damage and effects that try to destroy it simply have no effect. Umbra armor won't do anything because it won't have to.

Wizards of the Coast 7 Jun 2024

Umbra armor's effect is mandatory. If the enchanted creature would be destroyed, you must remove all damage from it (if it has any) and destroy the Aura that has umbra armor instead.

Wizards of the Coast 7 Jun 2024

If a creature you control is enchanted with multiple Auras that have umbra armor, and the enchanted creature would be destroyed, one of those Auras is destroyed instead—but only one of them. You choose which one because you control the enchanted creature.

Wizards of the Coast 7 Jun 2024

Some printings of this card refer to the ability "totem armor". This ability's name has been replaced with "umbra armor". This change does not affect the gameplay function of this card.

Wizards of the Coast 7 Jun 2024

Umbra armor has no effect if the enchanted creature is put into a graveyard for any other reason, such as if it's sacrificed, if the "legend rule" applies to it, or if its toughness is 0 or less.

Wizards of the Coast 7 Jun 2024

If a spell or ability says that it would "destroy" a creature enchanted with an Aura that has umbra armor, that spell or ability is what causes the Aura to be destroyed instead. Umbra armor doesn't destroy the Aura; rather, it changes the effects of the spell or ability. On the other hand, if a spell or ability deals lethal damage to a creature enchanted with an Aura that has umbra armor, the game rules regarding lethal damage cause the Aura to be destroyed, not that spell or ability.

Wizards of the Coast 7 Jun 2024

If a creature enchanted with an Aura that has umbra armor would be destroyed by multiple state-based actions at the same time (most likely because a creature with deathtouch has dealt damage to that creature greater than or equal to its toughness), umbra armor's effect will replace all of them and save the creature.

Wizards of the Coast 7 Jun 2024

Umbra armor's effect is not regeneration. Specifically, if umbra armor's effect is applied, the enchanted creature does not become tapped and is not removed from combat as a result. Effects that say the enchanted creature can't be regenerated won't prevent umbra armor's effect from being applied.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

Estrid's second ability can't target Estrid, but the Mask token may legally enchant Estrid if you find a way to move it onto her.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

You choose what each returning Aura will enchant just before that Aura enters the battlefield. The chosen recipient must be able to legally be enchanted by the Aura. This doesn't target the player or permanent it will enchant, so an opponent's permanent with hexproof may be chosen this way.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

If an Aura card can't enchant anything, it remains in your graveyard.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

An enchanted permanent is one with an Aura attached to it. Enchantment permanents you control that don't have Auras attached to them aren't enchanted.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

Aura cards returned with Estrid's third ability may enchant non-Aura enchantments put onto the battlefield with that ability.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

If an Aura with umbra armor is itself enchanted by another Aura with umbra armor, destroying either the first Aura or the permanent it enchants will result in only the second Aura being destroyed instead.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

Estrid's second ability might target a permanent that can't have the Aura token attached to it. In this case, the token isn't created at all.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

All of the non-Aura enchantments put onto the battlefield with Estrid's third ability enter at the same time. If any have triggered abilities that trigger on something else entering the battlefield, they'll see each other.

Estrid's Invocation // Estrid's Invocation

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

If the chosen enchantment is an Aura but Estrid's Invocation won't be able to legally enchant anything, Estrid's Invocation remains in its current zone and doesn't enter the battlefield. If Estrid's Invocation is on the stack, it's put into its owner's graveyard.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

Estrid's Invocation copies exactly what was printed on the original enchantment (unless that enchantment is copying something else or is a token; see below). It doesn't copy whether that enchantment is tapped or untapped, whether it has any counters on it or any Auras attached to it, or any non-copy effects that have changed its types, color, or so on.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

If Estrid's Invocation doesn't copy an enchantment as it enters the battlefield, it won't have the ability to exile it at the beginning of your upkeep. You can't have it copy itself to get this ability.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

If the chosen enchantment is an Aura, you choose what it enchants just before Estrid's Invocation enters the battlefield. The chosen recipient must be able to legally be enchanted by the Aura Estrid's Invocation will be. This doesn't target the player or permanent it will enchant, so an opponent's permanent with hexproof may be chosen this way.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

Any enters-the-battlefield abilities of the copied enchantment will trigger when Estrid's Invocation enters the battlefield. Any "as [this enchantment] enters the battlefield" or "[this enchantment] enters the battlefield with" abilities of the chosen enchantment will also work.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

If the chosen enchantment is copying something else (for example, if the chosen enchantment is another Estrid's Invocation), then Estrid's Invocation enters the battlefield as whatever the chosen enchantment copied.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

If the chosen enchantment is a token, Estrid's Invocation copies the original characteristics of that token as stated by the effect that created the token. Estrid's Invocation doesn't become a token in this case.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

If the copied enchantment has {X} in its mana cost, X is considered to be 0.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

If Estrid's Invocation somehow enters the battlefield at the same time as another enchantment, it can't become a copy of that enchantment. You may choose only an enchantment that's already on the battlefield.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

Once Estrid's Invocation returns, it's considered a new object with no relation to the object that it was. You must choose an enchantment that's currently on the battlefield to copy (or to not copy anything). Auras that were attached to it will be put into their owners' graveyards. Any counters that were on it cease to exist.

Tuvasa the Sunlit // Tuvasa the Sunlit

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

Tuvasa's triggered ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

Because damage remains marked on a creature until it's removed as the turn ends, nonlethal damage dealt to Tuvasa may become lethal if some of your enchantments leave the battlefield during that turn.
