About Clone

Clone, Creature — shapeshifter, designed by Julie Baroh first released in Aug, 1993 in the set Limited Edition Alpha and was printed exactly in 18 different ways. It's a key card in 5 combos.

A deck that focuses on adapting to the opponent's strategy or leveraging powerful creatures on the battlefield would benefit from Clone. It offers versatility and can serve as a flexible answer to threats or as a way to duplicate powerful creatures for additional impact. While Clone is a solid choice, cards like Clever Impersonator or Phyrexian Metamorph offer more flexibility and utility, potentially making them better choices depending on the deck's strategy. Clone should see play in decks looking to capitalize on its copying ability and adaptability.

Rules

07/01/12

Clone copies exactly what was printed on the original creature and nothing more (unless that creature is copying something else or is a token; see below). It doesn’t copy whether that creature is tapped or untapped, whether it has any counters on it or Auras attached to it, or any non-copy effects that have changed its power, toughness, types, color, or so on.

07/01/12

You can choose not to copy anything. In that case, Clone enters the battlefield as a 0/0 Shapeshifter creature, and is probably put into the graveyard immediately.

07/15/07

Any enters-the-battlefield abilities of the copied creature will trigger when Clone enters the battlefield. Any “as [this creature] enters the battlefield” or “[this creature] enters the battlefield with” abilities of the chosen creature will also work.

07/15/07

If the chosen creature is copying something else (for example, if the chosen creature is another Clone), then your Clone enters the battlefield as whatever the chosen creature copied.
