Gilder Bairn

Creature — Ouphe

2 genericGreen or Blue, untap: Double the number of each kind of counter on target permanent. (untap is the untap symbol.)

Do the glowing trinkets show it the way home, or do they set a twisted path for someone else to follow?

Rulings (4)
  • If the permanent is already untapped, you can’t activate its untap ability. That’s because you can’t pay the “Untap this permanent” cost.
  • Gilder Bairn’s ability will replicate each kind of counter on the targeted permanent, not just +1/+1 or -1/-1 counters.
  • When you activate an untap ability, you untap the creature with that ability as a cost. The untap can’t be responded to. (The actual ability can be responded to, of course.)
  • The “summoning sickness” rule applies to untap. If a creature with an untap ability hasn’t been under your control since your most recent turn began, you can’t activate that ability. Ignore this rule if the creature also has haste.
