Lords conferred boons to other members of the same creature type, usually without conferring such boons to themselves, however. This is why lord became an informal term for any creature or other permanent which has this ability. Even after the creature type was defunct. Due to their support for creature types and appreciably influential impact, lords are often integral to [[tribal (theme)|tribal]] decks.

Lord
Creature Type
(Subtype for creature/kindred cards)

type:"Lord"

Lord is an obsolete creature type[2][3] for creatures with an occupation of high class or power within a structure or organization. Noble is currently used for the same purpose.

History

Lords conferred boons to other members of the same creature type, usually without conferring such boons to themselves, however. This is why lord became an informal term for any creature or other permanent which has this ability, even after the creature type was defunct. Due to their support for creature types and appreciably influential impact, lords are often integral to tribal decks.

The lords Lord of Atlantis, Zombie Master, and Goblin King, which appeared in Alpha, were the first of several lords, most of which would grant a power/toughness bonus of +1/+1 and an additional bonus, such as a keyword ability (e.g. landwalk, regeneration, haste, shroud).[4][5]

The creature type was dropped due to inconsistency between card names and the use of this type, gender issues (Lady being the correct female form), and so it would not be confused with the so-called "lord" abilities of creatures who grant effects to other creatures according to their creature types, colors, or other attributes.[6]

Most "lords" have since had their creature subtypes changed to better reflect the character's race and creature class. For instance, Lovisa Coldeyes was originally printed as a Human Lord, then changed to a Human Barbarian, and most recently changed to simply a Human.[7][8]

Etymology

The term "lord" originates from an obsolete creature type that is featured as a creature type on numerous older lords;[9] although artistically depicted as being of the creature type for which they granted bonuses, these lords were often not of the same creature type. This was, however, changed by the time of the Grand Creature Type Update, when the "Lord" creature type was no longer supported and removed, and most of the older lords received appropriate creature types as well as errata (often an "other", as in "Other Goblin creatures get +1/+1", as opposed to "Goblin creatures get +1/+1") to preserve their original intended functionality.

Rules

  • Certain Lords grant bonuses to multiple creature types (e.g., Lovisa Coldeyes). In these cases, a creature that is of at least one of those creature types gets the benefit once (e.g., +2/+2 and haste), regardless of how many of those subtypes it has.

Creature type lords

Unless specified, Lords grant +1/+1.

Any creature type

These lords typically allow the player to choose a creature type to buff.

Aetherborn

Angel

  • Giada, Font of Hope — Each other Angel you control enters the battlefield with an additional +1/+1 counter on it for each Angel you already control.
