    If Jenova isn't on the battlefield at the time its first ability resolves, use Jenova's power as it last existed on the battlefield to determine how many counters to put on the target creature.
  • 2025-06-06 · Wizards of the Coast
    Use the power of the Mutant that died as it last existed on the battlefield to determine how many cards to draw with Jenova's last ability.
  • 2025-06-06 · Wizards of the Coast
    If Jenova dies at the same time as one or more Mutants you control, its last ability will trigger for each of those Mutants (including itself if it somehow became a mutant).
