Oracle Printed Card Name: Hidden Spider Mana Cost: Converted Mana Cost: 1 Types: Enchantment Card Text: When an opponent casts a creature spell with flying, if Hidden Spider is an enchantment, Hidden Spider becomes a 3/5 Spider creature with reach. (It can block creatures with flying.) Flavor Text: It wants only to dress you in silk. Expansion: Urza's Saga Rarity: Common Card Number: 264 Artist: Thomas M. Baxa Rulings When it turns into a creature, it is no longer an enchantment. This card now uses the Reach keyword ability to enable the blocking of flying creatures. This works because a creature with flying can only be blocked by creatures with flying or reach. The ability only triggers if the creature spell has flying, regardless of whether an effect would cause the creature to have flying once it entered the battlefield. A noncreature permanent that turns into a creature can attack, and its abilities can be activated, only if its controller has continuously controlled that permanent since the beginning of their most recent turn. It doesn’t matter how long the permanent has been a creature.
