Bloodline Pretender, Artifact creature — shapeshifter, designed by Slawomir Maniak first released in Jan, 2021 in the set Kaldheim and was printed exactly in 5 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's a key card in 3 combos.
Bloodline Pretender would be a great addition to tribal decks that focus on a specific creature type, such as Elves, Goblins, or Merfolk, as it can grow in power alongside other creatures of the chosen type. While it is a solid card for tribal strategies, there are potentially better options like Metallic Mimic or Adaptive Automaton that provide more immediate benefits or synergies with tribal themes. However, Bloodline Pretender could still see play in casual or budget tribal decks looking for a versatile and flexible creature option.

If an effect causes a creature with changeling to lose all abilities, it will remain all creature types, even though it will no longer have changeling. This is because changeling applies before the effect that removes it.

If Bloodline Pretender is somehow on the battlefield without a chosen creature type, its last ability can’t trigger, even if a creature with no creature types enters the battlefield.

The subtype Shapeshifter that appears on the type line is mostly there to reinforce the flavor. A creature card with changeling is just as much an Elf, a Dwarf, a Sliver, a Goat, a Coward, and a Zombie as it is a Shapeshifter.

You must choose an existing creature type, such as Vampire or Druid. You can’t choose card types (e.g., artifact) or supertypes (e.g., snow).
