Cryptic Coat Rules Text & Legality

Cryptic Coat

Equipped creature gets +1/+0 and can't be blocked.

{1}{U}: Return this Equipment to its owner's hand.

Cryptic Coat is legal in Standard, Pioneer, Modern, Legacy and Commander, and not legal in Pauper.

Cryptic Coat Rulings

  • Feb 2, 2024

    A permanent that turns face up or face down changes characteristics but is otherwise the same permanent. Spells and abilities that were targeting that permanent and Auras and Equipment that were attached to that permanent aren't affected unless the new characteristics of the object change the legality of those targets or attachments.

  • Feb 2, 2024

    Any time you have priority, you can turn a cloaked permanent you control face-up by revealing that it's a creature card (ignoring any copy effects or type-changing effects that might be applying to it) and paying its mana cost. This is a special action. It doesn't use the stack and can't be responded to.

  • Feb 2, 2024

    At any time, you can look at a face-down spell or permanent you control. You can't look at face-down permanents or spells you don't control unless an effect instructs or allows you to do so.

  • Feb 2, 2024

    Because face-down creatures don't have a name, they can't have the same name as any other creature, even another face-down creature.

  • Feb 2, 2024

    Because the permanent is on the battlefield both before and after it's turned face up, turning a permanent face up doesn't cause any enters-the-battlefield abilities to trigger.
