I have a Question About Morh and Ghost Fire Blade; Stormbreath Dragon and Hushwing Gryff.


Morph: pay 3 mana for a 2/2 creature.


Ghostfire Blade 1

Ghostfire Blade's equip ability costs 1 less to activate if it targets a colorless creature.


Morph and Ghostfire Blade


The Question:

1)Is morph creature would considered a COLORLESS creature.or just a simple 2/2 creature?

2) If yes can i activate ghost fire blade for 1 mana to equip a morh creature card like "Wingmate Roc".?

3)if we activate it's face up cost ,assuming i have 2/2 morph creature with equipment with a ghostfire blade blade, when a i face up a morph creature is Ghost fire blade would attached to a creature or not?

STORMBREATH DRAGON ANd Hushwing Gryff


Stormbreath Dragon
Creature — Dragon (MR)
Flying, haste, protection from white


Hushwing Gryff
Flash
Flying
Creatures entering the battlefield don't cause abilities to trigger.
2/1


My opponent card a Stormbreath Dragon..,in responds to his Dragon i cast a Hushwing Gryff..


Questions:

1)Is HASTE and protection from the white,is that a trigger ability of Stormbreath Dragon.?

2)when i cast Hushwing Gryff can i kill his stormbreath dragon using a reprisal.?since it's protection is no longer trigger to cause because of Hushwing Gryff ability which say no longer trigger..?

3)Is HASTE,Trample,protection from the white for example,hex proof,double strike and first strike is that a trigger ability of a creature..?can i negate that by Hushwing Gryff?

Face down creatures are colorless (unless some other effect gives them a color). Ghostfire blade costs one less to equip if the target is colorless at time of activation.

If a creature gains colors after the equip cost is paid it does not counter the equip ability. If a creature gains colors after the equipment is attached it does not cause the equipment to fall off.

1) No it is not a triggered ability.
603.1. Triggered abilities have a trigger condition and an effect. They are written as “[Trigger condition], [effect],” and begin with the word “when,” “whenever,” or “at.” They can also be expressed as “[When/Whenever/At] [trigger event], [effect].” #

2) No you cannot. Hushwing Gryff does not shut off static abilities such as flying, haste, or protection from white.

3)No, see above.

Those are static abilities. They are not triggered abilities. A triggered ability usually begins with "when," "whenever," or "at," for example:

Abhorrent Overlord: "When Abhorrent Overlord enters the battlefield, put a number of 1/1 black Harpy creature tokens with flying onto the battlefield equal to your devotion to black."

Hushwing Gryff does not stop most keyword abilities, which are static abilities.

Haste, protection, flying, first strike, and trample are "static" abilities. Hushwing gryff doesn't stop any of these.

Battlecry and exalted are "triggered" abilities that have keywords. Normal triggered abilities will use words "whenever", "when",
or "at" to let you know what conditions cause the ability to trigger.
