Official rulings

Two official rulings apply to Kenrith, the Returned King, newest first.

  • Kenrith's last ability can target a creature card in any player's graveyard. Its owner will control the creature, and it will remain on the battlefield even if you leave the game (if you don't own it).
  • Kenrith's first ability affects only creatures on the battlefield at the time it resolves. Creatures that enter the battlefield later in the turn won't gain trample or haste.
