However, if you have a way to decrease its power, you can cause the triggered ability to trigger multiple times in a single turn.

Wizards of the Coast 23 Jul 2021

That triggered ability triggers only if the activated ability causes the power of Inferno of the Star Mounts to become exactly 20. If its power becomes 20 in any other way, the ability won't trigger. If its power becomes 21 or greater this way, the ability won't trigger.

Wizards of the Coast 23 Jul 2021

You don't choose a target when you activate the activated ability. You choose a target for the linked triggered ability only if it triggers because the power of Inferno of the Star Mounts became 20.

Color identityEvery color of mana symbol on a card, in its cost and in its rules text. Your commander's color identity sets the limit for your whole deck: every other card has to fit inside it. A deck led by a green and white commander cannot play a card with any blue in its color identity.Open the full glossaryRPlayers write colors as letters: R for red.BurnBurn decks win by dealing damage straight to opponents with spells and abilities, rather than by attacking with creatures.

Because it can hit a player as easily as a creature, the same card can remove a blocker or finish off an opponent.

Rogue's Passage, Mind StoneOpen the Mana Sink pageDamage RemovalRemoves creatures by dealing damage to them rather than by destroying them outright. This includes fight cards, where your creature deals the damage. Damage only kills a creature if it at least equals its toughness, so it can miss the biggest ones, and it does not kill a creature that cannot be destroyed. Lightning Bolt, Rabid Bite, PyroclasmOpen the Damage Removal pageUncounterableThis card cannot be countered. Countering a spell stops it from resolving and puts it straight into the graveyard, so a spell that cannot be countered is going to happen no matter what an opponent is holding. This tag is about the card itself. A card that grants that protection to your OTHER spells is tagged Counter Protection instead. Allosaurus Shepherd, CounterfluxOpen the Uncounterable page
