Does Deceptive Frostkite + Fang, Roku’s Companion create an infinite loop?
I have a question about an interaction between Deceptive Frostkite and Fang, Roku’s Companion.
Scenario:
I control the original Fang.
I cast Deceptive Frostkite and have it enter as a copy of Fang.
The copied Fang dies.
Since it “wasn’t a Spirit” when it died, its ability returns it to the battlefield as a Spirit in addition to its other types.
But when it re-enters, Frostkite’s replacement effect lets it enter as a copy of a creature with power 4 or greater again, so I choose the original Fang.
Does the copied Frostkite stop being a Spirit because the copy effect overwrites its characteristics, allowing it to repeatedly return every time it dies?
