    If Ragost somehow becomes an artifact, Ragost will also be a Food.

  • WotCJul 25, 2025

    If an effect refers to a Food, it means any Food artifact, not just a Food token. For example, when you activate Ragost’s second ability, you can sacrifice any Food you control to pay its cost.

  • WotCJul 25, 2025

    Ragost’s last ability will check as the end step starts to see if you gained life this turn. If you haven’t, the ability won’t trigger at all. You won’t be able to gain life during your end step in time to have the ability trigger.

  • WotCJul 25, 2025

    The artifacts retain any types, subtypes, supertypes, and abilities they have.

  • WotCJul 25, 2025

    You can’t sacrifice a Food to pay multiple costs. For example, you can’t sacrifice a single Food to pay the cost of its own ability and also to pay the cost of Ragost’s second ability.
