wild pair

[OffTheWall]

If I have a wild pair in play and a deathrender equipped to a creature. When the equipped creature is put into the graveyard, I get to put a creature into play and attach the deathrender to it does that then trigger the Wild Pair?

Well Wild Pair (http://ww2.wizards.com/gatherer/CardDetails.aspx?&id=122468) reads:

Whenever a creature comes into play, if you played it from your hand, you may search your library for a creature card with the same total power and toughness and put it into play. If you do, shuffle your library.

and Deathrender (http://ww2.wizards.com/gatherer/CardDetails.aspx?&id=139727) says:

Equipped creature gets +2/+2.
Whenever equipped creature is put into a graveyard from play, you may put a creature card from your hand into play and attach Deathrender to it.

So I think your answer is yes...

EDIT: Okay, so I totally forgot about the whole Hypnox, having to actullay cast it deal, my bad...

Excellent. Thanks.

No

Putting a card from your hand into play is not the same a playing a card from your hand.

The equipment does not "play" the card so it does not trigger wild pair.

I'd think not. To me, the clause "put a creature card from your hand into play" is not the same as "played [a creature card] from your hand."

Edit: Yeah, what quicksilver said.

Playing a card from hand means choosing modes (if applicable), choosing targets, paying costs, and putting the card on the stack as a spell.

Putting something into play is not playing a card from your hand.


Deathrender puts the creature card into play, thus it is not being played and Wild Pair will not trigger.

Oh well. Thats what I thought, but that could have been cool.
