Do tokens have summoning sickness in MTG?

Best Answer

Yup, tokens are just like any other creature in Magic The Gathering, so they definitely get summoning sickness. Just like creatures played from your hand, tokens can't attack or use tap abilities the turn they enter the battlefield unless they have haste. So, if you're planning a big token strategy, keep an eye out for ways to give them haste!

Absolutely, tokens get summoning sickness. Found this out the hard way in a game last week. Tried to swing with a bunch of token creatures I just created and got a lesson in the rules of MTG. Remember, unless they've got haste, they're sitting ducks until your next turn.
