About Nylea's Emissary

Nylea's Emissary, Enchantment creature — cat, designed by Sam Burley first released in Sep, 2013 in the set Theros. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 2.37.

This card, Nylea's Emissary, would benefit a Green-based aggro or midrange deck looking to enhance its creatures' power and trample abilities. While it provides a significant boost to a creature and can be versatile as both a creature and an enchantment, there are potentially better options like Rancor or Aspect of Hydra that offer similar effects more efficiently. However, Nylea's Emissary could still see play in certain decks that value its flexibility and trample ability.

Rules

09/15/13

Auras attached to a creature don’t become tapped when the creature becomes tapped. Except in some rare cases, an Aura with bestow remains untapped when it becomes unattached and becomes a creature.

09/15/13

On the stack, a spell with bestow is either a creature spell or an Aura spell. It’s never both, although it’s an enchantment spell in either case.

09/15/13

Unlike other Auras, an Aura with bestow isn’t put into its owner’s graveyard if it becomes unattached. Rather, the effect making it an Aura ends, it loses enchant creature, and it remains on the battlefield as an enchantment creature. It can attack (and its abilities can be activated, if it has any) on the turn it becomes unattached if it’s been under your control continuously, even as an Aura, since your most recent turn began.
