Official rulings

Two official rulings apply to Ajani, the Greathearted, newest first.

  • If Ajani is somehow a creature as his last ability resolves, he’ll get a +1/+1 counter.
  • If a planeswalker you control is also a creature (most likely because it’s Gideon), that planeswalker receives both a +1/+1 counter and a loyalty counter as Ajani’s last ability resolves.
