03/19/2021If Containment Priest enters the battlefield at the same time as other creatures, its ability won't affect those creatures.
03/19/2021If a noncreature card wasn't cast and is entering the battlefield as a creature (due to an effect such as that of March of the Machines), it will be exiled.
