Does a werewolf count as a wolf in Magic The Gathering?
Actually, werewolves are NOT wolves in MTG. They have their own creature type because, you know, they're more than just your average wolf. They've got their own issues, like moonlight-triggered anger management problems.

Short answer: No. Long answer: Still no, but it's because the game differentiates between 'Wolf' and 'Werewolf' as creature types for the sake of mechanics and flavor. Always check your card types!
Yep, in the world of MTG, a werewolf is basically a wolf's angry cousin. So no, werewolves don't count as wolves. They're considered their own unique creature type. So if your deck or strategy relies on buffs or interactions specifically with wolves, those cards won't work with your werewolf cards. Gotta love the specifics!
