Watch Out
Layer ordering affects the final resultWatch Out
This card involves continuous effects applied in layer order. Type changes (layer 4) are applied before ability changes (layer 6) and P/T changes (layer 7). The order matters — a creature that loses abilities in layer 6 can still get new abilities from effects applied later in the same layer.
