Official rulings

  1. Creatures with saddle can attack or block as normal even if they aren't saddled. (2024-04-12)
  2. "Saddled" isn't an ability that a creature has. It's just something true about that creature. It won't stop being saddled until the turn ends or it leaves the battlefield. (2024-04-12)
  3. An ability that triggers when a creature "attacks while saddled" will trigger only if that creature was saddled when it was declared as an attacker. (2024-04-12)
  4. Putting one or more land cards onto the battlefield with The Gitrog's triggered ability doesn't count as playing a land. It can put land cards onto the battlefield even if you've already played your land for the turn. (2024-04-12)
  5. If a permanent becomes a copy of a saddled Mount, the copy won't be saddled. (2024-04-12)
  6. Use the power of the sacrificed creature as it last existed on the battlefield to determine the value of X. (2024-04-12)
  7. You may activate a permanent's saddle ability even if that permanent is already saddled. (2024-04-12)
  8. "Saddle N" means "Tap any number of other untapped creatures you control with total power N or greater: This permanent becomes saddled until end of turn. Activate only as a sorcery." (2024-04-12)
