About Gift of Tusks

Gift of Tusks, Instant, designed by Kev Walker first released in Jan, 2016 in the set Oath of the Gatewatch. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.09.

This card, Gift of Tusks, could be beneficial in a blue control deck that aims to neutralize powerful creatures with troublesome abilities by turning them into manageable 3/3 creatures. However, a more versatile option could be Pongify, which also turns a creature into a 3/3 but for a cheaper cost of U and at sorcery speed. While Gift of Tusks could have situational use, Pongify is generally considered the better option due to its efficiency and broader applicability in various deck archetypes.

Rules

01/22/16

Effects that modify a creature’s power and/or toughness, such as the effect of Titanic Growth, will apply to the creature no matter when they started to take effect. The same is true for any counters that change its power and/or toughness and effects that switch its power and toughness.

01/22/16

Gift of Tusks doesn’t counter abilities that have already triggered or been activated. In particular, there is no way to cast this spell to stop a creature’s ability that says “At the beginning of your upkeep,” “When this creature enters the battlefield,” or similar from triggering.

01/22/16

The creature will lose all other colors and creature types, but it will retain any other card types (such as artifact) or supertypes (such as legendary) it may have.
