Sword of the Animist as a result of the Automaton's "attack" trigger, the Sword's own "attack" trigger does not trigger in that same attack, because it had to be attached already. In that case, the granted ability would look at the Armory Automaton's controller, which would be you, even though the equipment itself is still controlled by your opponent.Īlso note that if you attach e.g. Sick of Boros Equipment Philomne gives Equipment Voltron a Sultai twist argentum armor, armory automaton, blackblade reforged, blade of selves, bloodforged battle axe, cazur ruthless stalker, cranial plating, darksteel plate, dowsing dagger, fumble, Grazilaxx, grazilaxx illithid scholar, Kodama of the West Tree, mask of riddles, shimmer dragon, sword of the animist. Note that there are equipments with different wordings that directly grant abilities to the equipped creature, such as Avarice Amulet. To determine the controller of a delayed triggered ability, see rules 603.7d–f. Penny Dreadful. For a triggered ability, this is the controller of the object when the ability triggered, unless it’s a delayed triggered ability. For an activated ability, this is the player who activated the ability. For a static ability, this is the current controller of the object it’s on. The words “you” and “your” on an object refer to the object’s controller, its would-be controller (if a player is attempting to play, cast, or activate it), or its owner (if it has no controller). Therefore, these abilities look for the controller of the equipment:ġ09.5. Armory Automatons ability can cause an Equipment one player controls to become attached to a creature another player controls. The ability that triggers off Dowsing Dagger and Sword of the Animist respectively are on that equipment, not on the creature. (5 items) Adds 400 Weapon and Spell Damage to your Physical and Bleed Damage abilities. Since your opponent remains as the controller of the equipments Armory Automaton attaches to itself, your opponent will continue to receive their effects. (4 items) Adds 129 Weapon and Spell Damage.

The term 'you' in an object's text always refers to that object's controller.
