Carte Magic Littjara Kinseekers

Littjara Kinseekers is one of those cards players keep asking about. Here is, in plain words, what its official text says, the rulings published by Wizards of the Coast, and the combos players actually run.

01

Official card text

Changeling (This card is every creature type.) When this creature enters, if you control three or more creatures that share a creature type, put a +1/+1 counter on this creature, then scry 1.

How it works : Littjara Kinseekers

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Three creatures share a creature type if there’s at least one creature type all three have, no matter what other creature types they have. For example, Littjara Kinseekers (which has all creature types), an Elf Warrior, and an Elf Wizard share a creature type because they’re all Elves.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    If you don’t control three or more creatures that share a creature type immediately after Littjara Kinseekers enters the battlefield, its ability doesn’t trigger. If you don’t control three or more as the ability resolves, you won’t put a +1/+1 counter on Littjara Kinseekers or scry 1. The three shared-type creatures you control when the ability resolves don’t have to be the same three you controlled when the ability triggered.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    You put just one +1/+1 counter on Littjara Kinseekers and scry 1, no matter how many extra trios of creatures that share a creature type you control.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  4. #4· Wizards of the Coast

    Changeling is a characteristic-defining ability. It functions in all zones, not only while a card that has it is on the battlefield.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  5. #5· Wizards of the Coast

    The subtype Shapeshifter that appears on the type line is mostly there to reinforce the flavor. A creature card with changeling is just as much an Elf, a Dwarf, a Sliver, a Goat, a Coward, and a Zombie as it is a Shapeshifter.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  6. #6· Wizards of the Coast

    If an effect causes a creature with changeling to become a new creature type, it will be only that new creature type. It will still have changeling; the effect making it all creature types will simply be overwritten.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  7. #7· Wizards of the Coast

    If an effect causes a creature with changeling to lose all abilities, it will remain all creature types, even though it will no longer have changeling. This is because changeling applies before the effect that removes it.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
