wotc1 Jul 2006
With the latest Oracle update, you can only cast this during combat, after blockers have been declared.
wotc1 May 2006
The target creature can be blocked by other creatures.
wotc1 May 2006
Putting a blocking creature onto the battlefield will trigger "When this creature becomes blocked by a creature" abilities. It may trigger "When this creature becomes blocked" abilities, but only if the creature the Saproling is blocking had not yet been blocked that combat.
wotc1 May 2006
The Saproling token is blocking the attacking creature, even if the block couldn't legally be declared (for example, if the attacking creature has flying, or is Vindictive Mob).
wotc1 May 2006
Putting a blocking creature onto the battlefield doesn't trigger "When this creature blocks" abilities. It also won't check blocking restrictions, costs, or requirements.
