When this creature enters, you may return another target historic permanent you control to its owner's hand. (Artifacts, legendaries, and Sagas are historic.)
How it works : Guardians of Koilos
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
A card, spell, or permanent is historic if it has the legendary supertype, the artifact card type, or the Saga subtype. Having two of those qualities doesn’t make an object more historic than another or provide an additional bonus—an object either is historic or it isn’t.
No other card is named in this ruling.
