FINAL FANTASY

Wizards of the Coast 4 Nov 2015

If the tokens aren't creatures (perhaps because the equipped creature was an animated land), they'll enter the battlefield but they won't be attacking. You'll still exile those tokens at end of combat.

Wizards of the Coast 4 Nov 2015

Any enters-the-battlefield abilities of the copied creature will trigger when the token enters the battlefield. Any “as [this permanent] enters the battlefield” or “[this permanent] enters the battlefield with” abilities of the copied creature will also work.

Wizards of the Coast 4 Nov 2015

If a creature has multiple instances of myriad, each triggers separately. You'll get two tokens per opponent other than the defending player.

Wizards of the Coast 4 Nov 2015

You choose whether each token is attacking the player or a planeswalker they control as the token is created.

Wizards of the Coast 4 Nov 2015

If the equipped creature is legendary, the tokens will all enter the battlefield. Then you'll choose one of them to remain on the battlefield. The others will be put into your graveyard. Any enters-the-battlefield or dies triggers of the tokens will work.

Wizards of the Coast 4 Nov 2015

If the defending player is your only opponent, no tokens are put onto the battlefield.

Wizards of the Coast 4 Nov 2015

The token creatures all enter the battlefield at the same time.

Wizards of the Coast 4 Nov 2015

Although the tokens enter the battlefield attacking, they were never declared as attackers. Abilities that trigger whenever a creature attacks won't trigger, including the myriad ability of the tokens. If there any costs to have a creature attack, those costs won't apply to the tokens.

Wizards of the Coast 4 Nov 2015

If myriad creates more than one token for any given player (due to an effect such as the one Doubling Season creates), you may choose separately for each token whether it's attacking the player or a planeswalker they control.

Wizards of the Coast 4 Nov 2015

The term “defending player” in the myriad rules (or any other ability of an attacking creature) refers to the player the creature with myriad was attacking at the time it became an attacking creature this combat, or the controller of the planeswalker the creature was attacking at the time it became an attacking creature this combat.

Wizards of the Coast 4 Nov 2015

Each token copies exactly what was printed on the original creature and nothing else. It doesn't copy whether that creature is tapped or untapped, whether it has any counters on it or Auras and Equipment attached to it, or any non-copy effects that have changed its power, toughness, types, color, and so on.

Wizards of the Coast 12 Jul 2019

Colossus Hammer can be attached to a creature that didn't have flying to begin with. It just won't lose flying.

Wizards of the Coast 12 Jul 2019

If the equipped creature gains flying after Colossus Hammer became attached to it, it will keep flying.

Wizards of the Coast 12 Jul 2019

If an ability of the equipped creature states that it has flying "as long as" a particular condition is true, that condition becoming true will not cause that creature to gain flying. For example, if the equipped creature "has flying as long as it's attacking," it will not gain flying, even if it attacks after Colossus Hammer becomes attached to it.

Wizards of the Coast 12 Jan 2024

If you don't pay the overload cost of a spell with overload, that spell will have a single target. If you pay the overload cost, the spell won't have any targets.

Wizards of the Coast 12 Jan 2024

If you are instructed to cast a spell with overload "without paying its mana cost," you can't choose to pay its overload cost instead.

Wizards of the Coast 12 Jan 2024

Because a spell with overload doesn't target when its overload cost is paid, it may affect permanents with hexproof or with protection from the appropriate color.

Wizards of the Coast 12 Jan 2024

To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying (such as an overload cost), add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.

Wizards of the Coast 12 Jan 2024

If you don't pay the overload cost of a spell with overload, that spell will have a single target. If you pay the overload cost, the spell won't have any targets.

Wizards of the Coast 12 Jan 2024

If you are instructed to cast a spell with overload "without paying its mana cost," you can't choose to pay its overload cost instead.

Wizards of the Coast 12 Jan 2024

Because a spell with overload doesn't target when its overload cost is paid, it may affect permanents with hexproof or with protection from the appropriate color.

Wizards of the Coast 12 Jan 2024

To determine the total cost of a spell, start with the mana cost or alternative cost you're paying (such as an overload cost), add any cost increases, then apply any cost reductions. The mana value of the spell remains unchanged, no matter what the total cost to cast it was.

Wizards of the Coast 28 Jul 2023

A battle with indestructible still loses defense counters as it's dealt damage. If it's a Siege, it will still be exiled when the last defense counter is removed from it, and its controller may still cast it transformed without paying its mana cost.

Wizards of the Coast 23 Jun 2020

The set of permanents affected by Heroic Intervention is determined as the spell resolves. Permanents you begin to control later in the turn won't gain hexproof and indestructible.

Wizards of the Coast 23 Jun 2020

A planeswalker with indestructible still loses loyalty counters as it's dealt damage and will still be put into its owner's graveyard if its loyalty reaches 0.

Wizards of the Coast 1 Jun 2011

Playing a card exiled with Praetor’s Grasp follows all the normal rules for playing that card. You must pay its costs, and you must follow all timing restrictions, for example.

Wizards of the Coast 1 Jun 2011

Other players, including the card’s owner, can’t look at the card while it remains exiled.

Wizards of the Coast 18 Jun 2021

The maximum number of colors of mana you can spend to cast a spell is five. Colorless is not a color. Note that the cost of a spell with converge may limit how many colors of mana you can spend.

Wizards of the Coast 18 Jun 2021

Unless a spell or ability allows you to, you can't choose to pay more mana for a spell with a converge ability just to spend more colors of mana. Likewise, if a spell or ability reduces the amount of mana it costs you to cast a spell with converge, you can't ignore that cost reduction in order to spend more colors of mana.

Wizards of the Coast 18 Jun 2021

You can choose any value for X. Choosing a higher value for X lets you pay more mana and thus spend more colors of mana to cast it. For example, if you choose 0 for the value of X and pay {W} to cast Prismatic Ending, you can exile a nonland permanent with mana value 0 or 1. If you choose 4 for the value of X and pay {W}{U}{B}{R}{G}, you can exile a nonland permanent with mana value 5 or less.

Wizards of the Coast 18 Jun 2021

If there are any alternative or additional costs to cast a spell with a converge ability, the colors of mana spent to pay those costs will count.

Wizards of the Coast 18 Jun 2021

If you cast a spell with converge without spending any mana to cast it (perhaps because an effect allowed you to cast it without paying its mana cost), then the number of colors spent to cast it will be zero.

Wizards of the Coast 18 Jun 2021

If a spell with a converge ability is copied, no mana was spent to cast the copy, so the number of colors of mana spent to cast the spell will be zero. The number of colors spent to cast the original spell is not copied.

Wizards of the Coast 18 Jun 2021

The mana value is not a targeting condition. It is checked only as the spell resolves.

Wizards of the Coast 4 Feb 2023

Players can respond to a spell or ability whose effect includes proliferating. Once that spell or ability starts to resolve, however, and its controller chooses which permanents and players will get new counters, it's too late for anyone to respond.

Wizards of the Coast 4 Feb 2023

An ability that triggers "Whenever you proliferate" triggers even if you chose no permanents or players while doing so.

Wizards of the Coast 4 Feb 2023

If a permanent ever has both +1/+1 counters and -1/-1 counters on it at the same time, they're removed in pairs as a state-based action so that the permanent has only one of those kinds of counters on it.

Wizards of the Coast 4 Feb 2023

If a player or permanent has more than one kind of counter on it, and you choose for it to get additional counters, it must get one of each kind of counter it already has. You can't have it get just one kind of counter it already has and not the others.

Wizards of the Coast 4 Feb 2023

To proliferate, you can choose any permanent that has a counter, including ones controlled by opponents. You can choose any player who has a counter, including opponents. You can't choose cards in any zone other than the battlefield, even if they have counters on them.

Wizards of the Coast 4 Feb 2023

You don't have to choose every permanent or player that has a counter, only the ones you want to add another counter to. Since "any number" includes zero, you don't have to choose any permanents at all, and you don't have to choose any players at all.

Wizards of the Coast 14 Jun 2019

Protection from a color means that the equipped creature can't be blocked by creatures of that color, can't be the target of spells of that color or abilities from sources of that color, can't be enchanted or equipped by Auras or Equipment of that color, and all damage that sources of that color would deal to it is prevented. Nothing other than these events is prevented or illegal.

Wizards of the Coast 14 Jun 2019

If a permanent or player you choose while proliferating has more than one kind of counter on it, it will get one more of each of those kinds. This means that if you put a +1/+1 counter on a creature you control with a -1/-1 counter on it, then choose that creature while proliferating, you'll put another of each of those counters on it before state-based actions remove them.

Wizards of the Coast 1 Feb 2007

As the triggered ability resolves, the active player gets the option to perform the action. If that player declines, the next player in turn order gets the option. As soon as any player performs the action, the spell is countered, but the remaining players still get the option. If all players decline, the spell remains on the stack.

Wizards of the Coast 1 Feb 2007

When this spell is cast, its “when you cast” ability triggers and goes on the stack on top of it.

Wizards of the Coast 7 Aug 2020

If you cast Toxic Deluge without paying its mana cost, you'll still choose a value for X and pay X life. This is because it doesn't have {X} in its mana cost.

Wizards of the Coast 7 Aug 2020

All creatures on the battlefield when Toxic Deluge resolves are affected. Ones that enter the battlefield or become creatures later in the turn are not.

Wizards of the Coast 1 Feb 2005

If the Jitte is moved after the "+2/+2" mode is announced but before it resolves, the bonus is given to the creature that is equipped when the ability resolves.

Wizards of the Coast 1 Feb 2005

If the Jitte leaves the battlefield after the "+2/+2" mode is announced but before it resolves, the bonus is given to the creature that was most recently equipped once the ability resolves.

Wizards of the Coast 1 Feb 2005

The ability can be used any time Umezawa's Jitte's controller has priority — only the "target creature" choice has additional requirements. Choosing the "Equipped creature gets +2/+2 until end of turn" mode does nothing if the Jitte isn't equipped to a creature when the ability resolves.

Wizards of the Coast 1 Feb 2005

Umezawa's Jitte's activated ability generates a modal choice. The choice is made when the ability is activated.

Wizards of the Coast 1 Feb 2005

If the "target creature gets -1/-1 until end of turn" mode is chosen, the target creature must also be announced.
