Okay, first of all read the card fully:
Color: Artifact
Type: Artifact
Cost: 4
Sets: ABUR45(R1)/AT(F1)
Text(5th): ~this~ comes into play tapped. ; {1},{Tap}: Destroy all artifacts, creatures, and enchantments.

Your answer is in the card text, since you have to tap the disk to activate it's ability, you can't tap it again...same idea if you had an ertai wizard adept, and a spell, you decide to counter the spell with ertai, and in response your opponent tries to play another spell, you can't try to counter the other spell again since ertai is tapped

What happens if I play Teferi's Response, in response to one of my lands being tapped by Opposition via a creature?

Thanks,

You'd draw the two cards, and kill the opposition.

EDIT: and the land wouldn't be tapped by the opposition by that creature, though your opponent in response could tap it again with another creature.

What if such an event were used to determine who goes first in a match? That wouldn't be considered a wager would it?

Ok this is a really stupid question. That being said, here goes.

First someone plays a spell. In response, you use your wild research to search for a counterspell. You put the counterspell into your hand. You must randomly discard a card before even thinking about playing the counterspell right?

Yup you must first handle out the actions that are already in progress

so you need to discard first then you can play again

I tap all my creatures to Symbiotic Deployment and draw a Relentless Assault. can i use the Assault to untap my creature and declare an attack phase or do i have to declare a prior attack?

Card text:

Relentless Assault
2RR
Sorcery
Untap all creatures that attacked this turn. After this phase, there is an additional combat phase followed by an additional main phase.


I think that should answer your question - they don't untap since they didn't attack.

Ok, I am playing Secret Force, the version that runs all Snow-Covered Forests for Gargantuan Gorilla. My question is, if I play with Rofellos with 2 Snow-Covered Forests, will he tap to add two green to my mana pool? Basically I'm asking if a Snow-Covered Land is treated as a regular land. Thanks to those that answer in advance!

If you have 2 sorcery cards that require you to skip your next turn
in your hand, and you play both the same turn, you skip 2 turns correct?

TaBlah555: Yes, those snowcovered lands are treated as basic lands.

SuperJimmy: Yep, you skip two turns.

heres the scenario

player a attacks player b (creatures irrelivent)

player 2 search with lin sivvi, rout as an instant, put the search on the stack, rout resolves then the search resolves

i say he cant do that

he says he can

lmk asap

goku: i'd say the sivvi'ed creature would get re-Routed to the graveyard because he activated the search before casting the Rout. he could have added mana to his mana pool, casted Rout, during the resolution, used the mana for the search.
but i'm not judge.
btw: sorry about the pun, i couldn't resist!

my questions:
(just like my Relentless Assault question)
I declare my attck phase, he responed with Ensnare tapping all creatures. since i declared an attack, can i use Relentless Assault to declare another attack phase?

can i play creature with Elvish Piper/Dragon Arch/Belbe's Portal/Quicksilver Amulet as instants, because they don't specify "Play this ability as a sorcery?"

1. You cannot play abilities during the resolution of a spell.
Just activate search and respond with an instant Rout. The Rout resolves, killing all. The searching resolves, bringing out someone.

2. If your opponent uses Ensnare to prevent your creatures from attacking, he/she must do it during the Beginning of Combat step latest. Because then the players have a chance to play instants. In that case, your creatures are tapped by Ensnare, not by attacking, and they will not be affected by Relentless Assault.

(If your opponent waits until the Declare Blockers step, he cannot use ensnare to bug you, because you declare attackers and tap them before any instants or abilities could be played during that step.)

3) Yes. Abilities are played as instants.

If my opponent misdirects a 7 point Death Grasp to me and I'm at 5 life, do I lose the game? I'm guessing yes, because I know you lose in the same type of situation when you have Spirit Link on an opponent's creature.

Does Sacred Ground work on Wildfire, since you're sacrificing the lands?

Does your opponent get to assign blockers right after you attack or do you have a chance to do something? (IE can you attack with Tahngarth and then use the ability to get rid of a blocker?)

Whoops, I just remembered one thing. If my opponent attacks me with an Ophidian and I Swords to Plowshares it, does he still get to draw a card since it wasn't blocked?

Well, since this previous one hasnt been answered yet, ill bite...

Im not sure about the death grasp, but I would think you would gain 7 life, and lose 7 life, ending up even.

With Tangarth, you can declare him as an attacker, use his ability to take out a blocker, and then hit him for 4.

And with the ophidian, it would depend when the swords resolved. If it was before declare blockers, you would be unable to activate ophidian's ability, but if it was during or after declare blockers, then you could activate his ability in response to the swords.

Ncromonitor:
- You take 7 damage dropping you below 1 life, but then gain 7 life during the resolution of Death Grasp. Statebased effects are only checked after something has resolved, so you'll survive the misdirected Death Grasp.

- Yes, Sacred Ground works against Wildfire. Eventhough every player has to sac the lands itself, it's still because of a spell controlled by another player.

- Yes, you can play spells or abilities after declaring attackers, before blockers are declared.

- Yes, as long as you use the StP before blockers are declared.

I have Squandered Resources and Gemstone Mine in play with 1 counter on it. Can I tap the Gemstone Mine and Squander it in response to it going in my graveyard?

another stupid question but i got to thinking of it becasue of the people asking about ice age, snow covered lands. Now i know these are basic lands, and i know they are treated as the land type they are, but lets say you have 10 lands in play (1x of each snow covered lands, and 1x of each regular basic land) and you play a tribal flames, does that do 10 or 5 damage? what im really trying to ask is if you can use ice age lands for a domain deck?

5 damage, snow-covered or non-snow-covered, there are only 5 types of basic land, and the snow-covered text says:

Snow-Covered. ; ~this~ is a (corresponding basic land type) in addition to its land type. [Oracle 00/10/24]

However, snow-covered land is not a basic land, just only what it counts as.

All right, this guy today played a Rhystic Lightning during my untap step... I went to pay the 2 but he said that you can't play mana abilities or draw mana from my pool during my untap step... I believe he is full of crap because that would make any instant damage card basically uncounterable... so what I am asking is... if you can play spells during untap phases and if I could pay the 2 for Rhystic Lightning or not.

Your opponent was somewhat right, but he can not play spells dring the untap step. He said you can not play mana abilities during the untap step, so how did he get mana to pay for his rhystic lightning?

Here is the rule:
P.5.2 - No player receives priority during this step, so no spells or abilities can be played or resolved. Any ability that triggers during this step will be held until a player receives priority during the Upkeep step. [CompRules 99/04/23]
