Experiment Kraj | Mobilized District
Kraj can inherit abilities which include the sentence "It's still a land."; does the Kraj just ignore that part? thanks
experiment kraj vs "it's still a land"

205.1b. Some effects change an object's card type, supertype, or subtype but specify that the object retains a prior card type, supertype, or subtype. In such cases, all the object's prior card types, supertypes, and subtypes are retained. This rule applies to effects that use the phrase "in addition to its types" or that state that something is "still a [type, supertype, or subtype]." Some effects state that an object becomes an "artifact creature"; these effects also allow the object to retain all of its prior card types and subtypes.
This is the rule that covers this and all it really means is that the ability won't overwrite any existing card type. So, if Kraj is an Enchantment somehow, this ability won't overwrite that and it will still be an enchantment. In practice, this really doesn't mean anything for Kraj though. It won't make him a land since he is not a land already (normally).
