If I make a token copy of a creature with Bramble Sovereign and Ashaya, Soul of the Wild out, would the token copy made be a land creature?
Asked by JoyTheEnbySliverLover 11 months ago
So I am mostly interested in how the interaction works around card types. Ashaya, Soul of the Wild doesn't make tokens into land creatures with her ability, I know that much, but the creature I want to copy would be a land so I am wondering if that copy would inherit the land type. I honestly don't know and I am considering using Ashaya, Soul of the Wild in a deck that makes a lot of copies of creature. Would be nice to know if some of those copies would be land creatures.
For an example of an interaction like what I would be using, imagine I had a Bramble Sovereign and Ashaya, Soul of the Wild on the battlefield and I cast a Llanowar Elves then paid the to make a token copy of Llanowar Elves, would the token copy be a land in addition to its other types?

The token copy in your example would just be a regular Llanowar Elves and wouldn't be a land. Basically, copy effects just copy what's written on the original, plus the results of any other copy effects the original is subject to (i.e. copying a Phyrexian Metamorph pretending to be Runeclaw Bear will make another Runeclaw Bear that's also an artifact). Any other effects that might be altering the original's characteristics aren't copied over.
