I want to ask about the +1 ability of Nissa, Vital Force.

If the creature (that was the untapped land) dies from combat damage or any other effects, is the land removed from battlefield afterwards? Usually I´d say yes, but the card explicitly says It´s still a land.

If it is removed, then can I bring the land back with the -3 ability?

Thank you.

    You can also destroy lands that aren't creatures.

Yes, it will be destroyed by having sufficient damage on it. Also, Terror ('Destroy target creature.') will work just fine.

The text:

'It is still a land'

signifies that it can still tap for mana and that it is affected by spells and abilities that target lands (ie: 'Destroy target land').

Once it is removed from the battlefield, the card becomes just a land card. Since lands are permanents, you can target them with Nissa's -3 ability.

  • Dammit then my opponent was right. Guess I have to apologize to him. Thank you.
