Rulings
- WotCAug 1, 2008
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.
- WotCOct 4, 2004
The blocking ability triggers only once no matter how many blockers are declared.
