Nameless Inversion + Crypt Champion

Asked by joekeny 8 years ago

Crypt Champion says that when it comes into play you ca return a creature card with cmc less than 3 and put it into play and Nameless Inversion has a cmc of 2 and its tribal subtype gives it all creature types at all times.

Would Crypt Champion be able to target Nameless Inversion and "reanimate" it?

No - while Nameless Inversion has all creature subtypes, it doesn't actually have the Creature supertype - meaning it's not actually a creature card you could fetch with Crypt Champion.

Additionally, Crypt Champion doesn't target any cards you put back into play; and Crypt Champion doesn't get all creature types from the Tribal Supertype, but from the Changeling keyword.

Tribal isn't a supertype or a subtype, it's a type; that's why it counts for Tarmogoyf and other type-matters effects.
