Wizards of the Coast 6 Jun 2025

If Vincent isn't on the battlefield when its last ability resolves, use its power as it last existed on the battlefield to determine whether it deals damage to each other opponent.

Wizards of the Coast 6 Jun 2025

The damage dealt by Vincent as a result of its last ability is not combat damage and therefore doesn't cause the ability to trigger again.

Wizards of the Coast 6 Jun 2025

Vincent's last ability doesn't care what Vincent's power is when it deals combat damage to an opponent; it only matters what its power is when the ability resolves. For example, if Vincent's power was 7 when it dealt combat damage to an opponent but is reduced to 6 just before its last ability resolves, it won't deal any additional damage when the last ability resolves.

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.+1/+1 Counters+1/+1 counter decks put small markers on their creatures that make each one permanently bigger, and keep adding more every turn.

A counter here is a small permanent marker that raises a creature's power and toughness for good. It is not a counterspell, which is a different thing entirely.
