Rulings
- 2006-07-15 · wotc — Balduvian Frostwaker’s effect has no duration. The snow land is a creature as long as it’s on the battlefield.
- 2006-07-15 · wotc — If an affected land later loses the supertype snow, Balduvian Frostwaker’s effect doesn’t end. The land will remain a creature.
- 2008-08-01 · wotc — A noncreature permanent that turns into a creature can attack, and its {T} abilities can be activated, only if its controller has continuously controlled that permanent since the beginning of their most recent turn. It doesn’t matter how long the permanent has been a creature.
