That&#8217;s simply not true! The rules don&#8217;t care how long a permanent has been a creature, just how long you&#8217;ve controlled that specific permanent. So for example, if you put a <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/rulestips\/wp-content\/plugins\/lems-mtg-helper\/lems-mtg-helper-cardfinder.php?find=Boon+Satyr&width=223&height=310\" class=\"jTip\" name=\"\">Boon Satyr<\/a> onto one of your creatures at the end of your opponent&#8217;s turn, and the creature dies before combat on your very next turn, the <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/rulestips\/wp-content\/plugins\/lems-mtg-helper\/lems-mtg-helper-cardfinder.php?find=Boon+Satyr&width=223&height=310\" class=\"jTip\" name=\"\">Boon Satyr<\/a> can attack! It&#8217;s only been a creature for less than a turn, sure- but the rules see that you&#8217;ve controlled the permanent since the beginning of this turn, and that&#8217;s A-OK. It&#8217;s still the same object, it just looks different than it used to is all. The same is true of the manlands from back in the day (<a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/rulestips\/wp-content\/plugins\/lems-mtg-helper\/lems-mtg-helper-cardfinder.php?find=Treetop+Village&width=223&height=310\" class=\"jTip\" name=\"\">Treetop Village<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/rulestips\/wp-content\/plugins\/lems-mtg-helper\/lems-mtg-helper-cardfinder.php?find=Raging+Ravine&width=223&height=310\" class=\"jTip\" name=\"\">Raging Ravine<\/a>, etc), or the Keyrunes that we have today. So long as you&#8217;ve had the permanent under your control since the beginning of your most recent turn, it can attack.
