Does returning from the graveyard activate Triggered Abilities?

Asked by Zungx 14 years ago

The two cards I am specifically referring to are Geth, Lord of the Vault and Rise from the Grave.

Say I have a Grave Titan in the graveyard and I return it with either one, do I get the zombie tokens?

Legendinc says... Accepted answer #1

yes because Grave Titan 's ability states "when Grave Titan enters the battlefield...."

its entering the battlefield, is it not?

so i would think you'd get the zombie tokens

Rise from the Grave

Geth, Lord of the Vault

Legend's correct, it does trigger. EtB effects don't care where it enters the battlefield from, only that it's entering. (There are a few exceptions to that, but they specifically say so if they are - see Reiver Demon for example.)

or when the card states that you cast it.

that's another exception.
