Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
This cards was originally printed with the "tribal" card type. That card type has been replaced with "kindred". This change does not affect the gameplay function of this card.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
Kindred is a card type that allows noncreature cards to have creature types. For example, Echoes of Eternity is an Eldrazi (although not a creature) while on the battlefield and an Eldrazi card (although not a creature card) in zones other than the battlefield.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
While it appears only on cards that already have other card types, kindred is a card type and will be counted by effects that refer to the number of card types among cards in a zone.
No other card is named in this ruling.
