Station

Keywords · intermediate

Station lets a noncreature permanent power up by tapping creatures. It appears on Spacecraft.

How it works

• Station is an activated ability: tap another creature you control to put a number of charge counters on the Station permanent equal to that creature's power. It can only be activated at sorcery speed.
• The permanent's card lists STATION thresholds. When it has enough charge counters, it gains the abilities at that threshold, often becoming a creature.

Rules notes

• A Spacecraft is not a creature until it reaches a station threshold high enough to make it one.
• Charge counters from station stay on the permanent, so progress accumulates over several turns.
