(10/13/2023)
As the first triggered ability of Weeping Angel resolves, it continues to be an artifact but will stop being both an Alien and an Angel until it becomes a creature again. It's just a statue, how dangerous could it be?
(10/13/2023)
Damage that is prevented never occurs, so any triggered abilities that trigger due to combat damage that would have been dealt by Weeping Angel won't trigger.
(10/13/2023)
If an opponent casts a creature spell with flash while Weeping Angel is attacking or blocking, it is removed from combat because it stops being a creature. However, any creatures that it was blocking are still considered blocked.
