About Helm of the Host

Helm of the Host, Legendary artifact — equipment, designed by Igor Kieryluk first released in Apr, 2018 in the set Dominaria Promos and was printed exactly in 7 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 26.46. It's a key card in 12 combos.

This card would be especially beneficial in a deck focused on powerful, non-legendary creatures with strong enter-the-battlefield effects or combat abilities, allowing you to create multiple copies of them each turn. While Helm of the Host is a fun and flavorful card, it may not be as competitive as other options like Sword of Feast and Famine or Sword of Fire and Ice, which offer more immediate and versatile benefits. However, in a casual or commander setting, Helm of the Host could definitely see play for its potential to create overwhelming board presence and fun interactions.

Rules

04/27/18

Any enters-the-battlefield abilities of the copied creature will trigger when the token enters the battlefield. Any “as [this creature] enters the battlefield” or “[this creature] enters the battlefield with” abilities of the chosen creature will also work.

04/27/18

If the copied creature is a token, the token that’s created copies the original characteristics of that token as stated by the effect that created that token.

04/27/18

The token copies exactly what was printed on the original creature and nothing else (unless that creature is copying something else or is a token; see below). It doesn’t copy whether that creature is tapped or untapped, whether it has any counters on it or Auras and Equipment attached to it, or any non-copy effects that have changed its power, toughness, types, color, and so on.

04/27/18

The token gains haste indefinitely, and this effect isn’t copiable. If something else copies the token later, that copy won’t have haste.
