What it does
Landfall — Whenever a land you control enters, tap target creature an opponent controls and put a stun counter on it. (If a permanent with a stun counter would become untapped, remove one from it instead.)
Rulings
4 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.
- 2024-11-08
A landfall ability doesn't trigger if a permanent already on the battlefield becomes a land.
- 2024-11-08
A landfall ability triggers whenever a land you control enters for any reason. It triggers whenever you play a land, as well as whenever a spell or ability puts a land onto the battlefield under your control.
- 2024-11-08
You may target a creature that's already tapped with Grappling Kraken's ability. In that case, you'll just put a stun counter on that creature.
- 2024-11-08
Whenever a land you control enters, each landfall ability of the permanents you control will trigger. You can put them on the stack in any order. The last ability you put on the stack will be the first one to resolve (As a result, you can have those abilities resolve in the order of your choosing.).
Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.
