About Heliod's Emissary

Heliod's Emissary, Enchantment creature — elk, designed by Sam Burley first released in Sep, 2013 in the set Theros. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of ₱ 20.16.

Heliod's Emissary would be beneficial in a white-based aggro or midrange deck looking to disrupt the opponent's board by tapping down key creatures during attacks while also providing a power and toughness boost to a creature. However, there are potentially better options such as Banishing Light or Detention Sphere for more versatile removal, and Heliod's Emissary may struggle to find a spot in competitive play due to its higher mana cost and limited impact compared to other cards available in the format.

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.
