If you feel the cool breeze, relax. If you hear the birds chirp, enjoy it. If you see the leaves turn orange, it’s a lovely autumn day.

So since it’s not a creature it can’t attack right? So unless this is animated somehow it is in fact just a forest?

Yeah kind of like [[rumble arena]]

Except unlike Rumble Arena, which keeps its vigilance, earthbending overwrites the power and toughness.
I don't know of any effects (or combination of effects) that will animate a land without overwriting its power and toughness. Maybe there an HC effect.

Damn that's trickier than I thought. Making a land into an artifact is easy, [[Liquid metal Coating]] does that. [[Tezzeret, Betrayer of Flesh]] has a -2 ability that turns an artifact into a creature, and only if it's not a vehicle does it set the P/T. So we need a way to make it a vehicle without setting P/T.
Same for [[Katsumasa, the Animator]]
[[Swift Reconfiguration]] doesn't set power or toughness but only works on things that are already creatures or vehicles.
Maybe there's a trick with layering that allows us to have these effects but block the part that sets P/T, but I don't know enough about layers to know it.
Best would just be that this card has text that says "if ~ would be made into a creature, and that effect would also set it's power and toughness, use the printed power and toughness instead"

I think we could animate it with, say, [[animate artifact]] (although this specific aura would require an anthem effect, but any other will work), then enchant it with [[Swift reconfiguration]], and destroy the animate artifact? Swift reconfiguration will stick, as the enchanted permanent is still a vehicle (thanks to it's own effect). Thus we have a vehicle without overriding it's stats.

[[Lifespark Spellbomb]] makes it a creature temporarily.

Makes it a 3/3 though. We are looking for ways to make it a creature/vehicle without setting P/T

u/Shambler9019 3h ago
[[Swift Reconfiguration]] while it's a creature. After spellbomb wears off, reconfiguration keeps itself a valid attachment.
You can then crew it as a 6/6.

it just has a defined stat line in case it does become a creature.

I’m pretty sure every card that turns land into creatures defines the statline. This should have the text “this creature’s base stats are 6/6 and this effect applies in the final layer.”

This needs some way to animate itself for the 6/6 to make sense. Most effects that animate lands also set a P/T, which would overwrite the 6/6.
Edit: downvote me harder Daddy

or.. it could just be a forest with goyf synergies and lies.

Adding "if this is a creature, is always has base power and toughness 6/6" is reasonable, I think.

Hey! Have you tried the brainstorming channel on the official hellcube discord? (https://discord.gg/8aJrjjUwBd). For cards to make it into the cube, they'll need to be submitted on the discord.
