Olorin: I think Rector's ability is a replacement effect, I'd have to look up the card text...

posted May 13, 2000 04:11 PM            

1)It is my Opponents turn and he declares that he is attacking with some creature. I cast Boomerang(targetting the creature) and put it on the stack. My opponent taps his Mother of Runes to give the creature Pro:Blue. The Mother's ability goes on the stack.
My question is would the Boomerang return the creature to his hand when it resolves, even if the creature was given Pro:Blue?

2)I have out a Blizzard Elemental. I Declare my Attack phase. My Opponent uses his Icy Manipulator to tap my Blizzard Elemental.I let the Icy's ability resolve, then I untap my Blizzard Elemental using its ability. Can my Blizzard Elemental still be declared as an Attacker?

Raker:

When a creature has Pro Blue, it cannot be targeted or damaged by Blue Creatures or Blue Spells (counterspell being an exception) So the boomerang would fizzle.

If you want to stop someone from attacking with a creature by using this card, you must do so before attackers are declared. You cannot wait until after attackers are declared and then try to use it to make a creature stop attacking. [D'Angelo 98/06/03] Note that your opponent cannot start declaring attackers without letting you use the Icy.

1)My opponent gave his creature Pro: Blue AFTER I had already cast Boomerang and targetted his creature(when a spell's cost is paid you declare a target. Dont' you?)

2)I never declared that I was attacking with the Blizzard Elemental, just that I was Entering my attack phase(So he taps it then I untap it THEN I declare it as an attacker)

Am I still right?

1/1
If ~this~ it the target of an opponent's spell or ability, put a +1/+1 counter on ~this~.
Nemesis
Common

If Mossdog is targetted by my opponent's Masticore, does it immidiately get +1/+1 (thereby surviving the damge)? What if targetted repeatedly? Does it get +1/+1 each time (surviving each time)?

If Mossdog attacks and is blocked by a 1/1 creature, does it survive and get +1/+1?
Or does it die first?

Does Necropotence give you the cards at the end of the turn you pay life, or at the end of the NEXT turn after you pay life?

Thanks.

Kworb: get a life, stay away from my posts.. and stay out of my life... do notice your replies have been and will be removed if necessary.

Svenmonkey:
FALTER
1R
Instant
Creatures without flying can't block this turn.

SPIDERSILK ARMOR
2G
Enchantment
Creatures you control get +0/+1 and may block as though they had flying.

when you block, treat as tho the creatures had flying. basically you have to pretend the creatures have ability of flying when they block..
...when/may A as tho they had B
...when A happens, treat as if they have B.

Goblin_Snowman: thanks.. and I moved home for summer .. as for answering everyday.. I shall try.. since at home I only got 1 line.. it may be harder on wkends... as I said.. I try to be as accurate as possible. thanks for the vote of confidence =)
as for your question, there are 5 levels of sanctioned judges. me, the lowly lvl 1 get to run around and do leg work. level 2's get to head judge JSS and pre-releases, level 3's get to head judge PTQ's, lvl 4's get to head judge regionals and PT's. Lastly the only lvl 5 is head judge at nationals and worlds.

Olorin: when rector his the graveyard, his enter graveyard (remove rector from game and search for enchantment) ability goes on the stack, at this point you have a chance to respond and use rapid decay to remove it from the game. after that the rector ability resolves, and since its no longer in the graveyard for them to remove and search, the ability fizzles.. or more correctly, counters itself.

Barren: 1. the oracle page for all up to date wordings on Urza's Saga is located here: http://www.wizards.com/DCI/oracle/UZ%202_1_00.txt
2. well it works best with 3 waves, since with 2 wave, lets now call them wave A and wave B, wave A removes wave B from the game. wave B only comes back when wave A leaves, now if you try to remove A with itself, it stays gone forever (that ruling is in the D'Angelo's Ruling summary, link is in my signature. as for will it come into play with 5 counters, yes fading is comes into play triggered ability, so yes you'd have to put counters on the wave that comes back in.

Kworb: sure I want all the credit for this incredible large post.. I did start it.. I am a certified judge.. but my absence is never long term..

Raker: 1. no, the boomerrang will now fizzle because when it tries to resolve, the creature it tried to target is now no longer a legal target, therefore giving the creature pro:blue will counter the boomerrang.
2. absolutely. before you declare and tap attackers.. both has a chance to respond, he chooses to tap, you let the affect resolve, at this point you both still have a time period to do something else, which is... untapping the attacker and rd to be declared an attacker.

Mark: 1. yes.. 1 right.. *clap* 2. still wrong. gl next time

Raker: when the boomerrang resolves, it checks to see if the target is still legal, since its not, boomerrang will fizzle.
2. correct.. see above explanation.

Silvertine: how do u cast a sorcery in response to snap? you cant sorry.
2. yes.. soon as the mossdog is declared a target by your opponent, it will get the +1/+1 immediately.. surviving masticore.
2a. blocking isnt targetted.. so mossdog will die to another 1/1 if it has no counters.
the specific wording of necro says at your end of turn. which means your end of turn step. if you did on your turn before that, you get it that turn, if later, then the following turn.

I have a Wall of Glare and a Spike Drone with 1 counter in play.

My opponent has a Fireslinger (no sickness) and Lightning Elemental in play.

During his main phase, my opponent plays another Lightning Elemental.

He announces his attack with both Elementals.

I declare Wall of Glare as blocking both Elementals.

I respond to my declaration by paying 2, removing the counter from the Spike Drone and giving it to my Wall, making it 1/6. I then respond to that by Casting Scent of Ivy, revealing one green card, making the wall 2/7. (My plan is to kill both elementals with the wall.)

My opponent responds to that by tapping his Fireslinger, dealing one damage to the Spike Drone. He claims that the counter will not move to the Wall of Glare because the Spike Drone dies before the its ability resolves.

Is he correct? (and why?)

posted May 14, 2000 01:05 PM            

when you use the drone's ability and move off the +1/+1 and leaving the drone a 0/0, the second priority is given to anyone right after you use the ability (removing a counter is a cost of the ability) state based effects check.. and you have a creature with 0 toughness in play.. which is put directly into the graveyard.. do not pass go.. do no collect 200$. so by the time he has a chance to respond with the fireslinger.. the drone is already gone and dead.

HIDDEN GIBBONS
G
Enchantment
When an opponent plays an instant spell, if Hidden Gibbons is an enchantment, Hidden Gibbons becomes a 4/4 Ape creature.

nowhere on the card does it say bring in a token creature.. the enchantment itself becomes a creature.. it still retains its converted casting cost of 1 mana.

posted May 14, 2000 06:23 PM            

enchant worlds however, should be treated like a legend.. there is only 1 enchant world in play at any given time.. however.. it works a bit differently from legends in that.. the last one cast and coming into play is the one that stays.
say you have the abyss out, and I cast lands edge.. the lands edge stay.. but the abyss then leaves play and goes to owner's graveyard.
