If an effect causes a God to lose all abilities, its ability that causes it to stop being a creature still applies if appropriate.
wotc24 Jan 2020
The abilities of Gods function as long as they're on the battlefield, regardless of whether they're creatures.
wotc24 Jan 2020
If a God stops being a creature, it loses the type creature and the creature type God. It continues to be a legendary enchantment.
wotc24 Jan 2020
If a God is attacking or blocking and it stops being a creature, it will be removed from combat. It won't rejoin combat if it resumes being a creature later during that combat.
wotc24 Jan 2020
Counters put on a God remain on it while it's not a creature, even if they have no effect.
wotc24 Jan 2020
Your devotion to two colors is the number of mana symbols among mana costs of permanents you control that are the first color, the second, or both. If an effect counts your devotion to two colors, a hybrid symbol that is both of those colors is counted just once.
