Amoeboid Changeling Blue Card in Magic the Gathering

Video Transcript

"MIKE LOPEZ: Hi. I'm Mike Lopez with Expert Village. And today, we'll be discussing the blue cards from the blue block of Magic: The Gathering. Here, we have Ameboid Changeling. It's a 1/1 little creature. It's a common. Again, 20, 25 cents. However, he's really cool. It's one and a blue, which means you know he's going to have an ability. Here, we have two abilities, which means you're getting one for free. Now, in the current environment, these abilities are very, very good. He's a shape-shifter. He's a changeling, which means that he is every creature type, which means that he gets bonuses from everything. He gets bonuses from things that bolster your merfolk, soldiers, wizards, everything, everything that boost them up, you can use. So basically, here we have a card that can be boosted up by every other card. So if you wanted to play blue, blue/white, blue/black, blue anything. If you want to play blue/elf, then you have a card right here that's going to get all the benefits from everything that boosts creatures up. Now, his two abilities are really cool. He also gives his shape-shifting ability to somebody else if you tap him. Target creature gains all creature types. It's very beneficial if you have creatures that aren't of a certain type. Also, you have, if you tap, target creature loses all creature types, which means that there's an attacking creature that's getting benefits, then you could tap him and make the loss so he does not get the benefits from the benefit of creature type."
