Rulings

2 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.

  • 2016-04-08

    A permanent transforms into a non-Human creature if it transforms and is a creature without the creature type Human after transforming, regardless of whether it was a Human creature (or a creature at all) before it transformed. For example, Westvale Abbey and Thraben Gargoyle will both cause Cult of the Waxing Moon’s ability to trigger when they transform.

  • 2016-04-08

    A non-Human creature that’s put onto the battlefield transformed, such as Skin Shedder, will not cause Cult of the Waxing Moon’s ability to trigger.

Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.

2 printings, newest first. Prices are the market figures Scryfall publishes, refreshed nightly. A printing with no figure shows a dash rather than a zero, because Scryfall publishes none for some of them.

Prices from Scryfall, which tracks the TCGplayer and Cardmarket markets. They move daily and are a guide rather than a quote. Search TCGplayer for Cult of the Waxing Moon. It runs a name search across every version, which covers the printings TCGplayer publishes no direct link to.

Aggregated from Commander games tracked in TurnZero HQ. Every figure counts decks and games only. No individual deck list, player or playgroup is identified. Win rates are withheld below 5 completed games, where the sample is too small to mean anything.
