Okay now I think I may have been unclear with this one. Each activation of Oppositions ability would be restricted by the Flagbearer. Therefore, each time Opposition is activated, it would have to target a Flagbearer if there was one in play. In my explantion above, I may have made it sound like you could tap the Flagbearer with Opposition and then tap other creatures. __________________

According to the Planeshift rules at the Wizards web site, Kicker costs are not part of a spells mana cost. (They are an additional cost). Therefore, a kciker cost does not change the colour of the spell. __________________

The rule about losing by being decked says, "When a player is required to draw more cards than are left in his or her library, he or she loses instead." What that means to me is that the cards are not drawn 1 by 1 for the purpopses of such rules. The Prosperity makes them draw X cards, not 1 card X times. When the Prosperity resolves, the game would be a draw because neither player had enough cards in their libraries. __________________

I'm playing against CounterOath. During my turn, I play a Rouge Elephant, and he plays Arcane Denile on it. During his upkeep, he uses the Oath's ability, and goes for a creature, then he draws his cards from the Denile. Is this legal, or must he draw his cards before he does the Oath.

OK a couple of questions.I urza's Rage a 3/3 creature that can regenerate.
Does it still dies because the damage cannot be prevented? Also...i am not sure about the rewind rule.
Is it like lets say my opponent has 2 tapped land and 4 untapped lands when cast rewind. Do they untap the lands that was tap or can they cast it basically free ? Like they cast it and they after that they untap the 4 lands they tapped for the rewind. Let me know. thanks!

#1. The creature can still be regenerated because regeneration isn't preventing damage. It dies and then it comes back.
#2. He can untap any 4 lands he wants, since Rewind doensn't state which lands to untap.

Also, Time Walk, damage from Urza's Rage can be prevented if kicker wasn't paid.Aya Brea - The only restriction on stacking upkeep effects is that your own go on the stack before any opponent's. He can choose to draw, then Oath, or Oath then draw. But it doesn't really matter unless he saw those cards with a Brainstorm or something... Revenger - All permanents have summoning sickness the turn they come into play. Although non-creature permanents are not affected by it, since these enchantments are creatures they will be affected.

I got a question. Since people refer to a Prodgical Sorcerer as "Tim" or "Timmy" so say I decide to alter the picture and flavor text to that of Timmy from South Park and as the Flavor text put "TIMMY!"-Timmy the Retard. Would I be able to play it in a T2 Legal tourny if the Picture and Flavor text where the only things altered? I think it would be since I haven't changed how the card is played or changed his abilities. Thanx in advance.__________________

A couple of my freinds that are new in Magic have a question on a ruling. If I attack with a 5/5 and a 2/4 and a 2/3 block Who chooses the damage The attacker or the Blocker. None of these creatures have first strike of any other special abilities. I think that the attacking creature chooses the damage. My freinds won't belive me on the ruling.

You don't "choose" who deals damage. If all the attacking creatures are normal and all the blocking creatues are normal, they deal their damage simultaniously (I cant spell). The defending player decides how the creatures block, If that's what you mean.

Well, I'll tell ya this... You're gonna have a hell of a time telling everyone that your special tim isn't a proxy. While it might be fun for casual play, I wouldn't reccomend it for tourney play. __________________

PDTMagic: The attacker choosed how his creatures deal damage, unless the blockers have banding. But as it's a mechanic that doesn't exist anymore I wouldn't worry about it.__________________

I mean on the Question does the defender get to choose were the damage is dealt or the attacker I think it's the attacker.

PDT - the attacker gets to decide how his creature's damage is distributed. Most likely he would do 5 damage to the 2/4 in case there's a damage prevention effect in the opponent's hand, but he can also divide it 1/4 or 2/3 if he wants.

Ok I conceded a house rules tournament because of this, so someone help me out here.I attack with a Order of the White Shield. My opponent taps his Ice Floe and says the damage is prevented. I say it is not prevented. I am sure I am right, if not I am getting out of magic. (stupid newbies. argh) Thanks!

You are correct. Ice Flow does not say that it prevents damage, like Maze of Ith or Kor Haven, nor that it removes a creature from combat, like a premature regeneration does. Ice Flow is annoying, but it isn't good.

If I have a Grave Pact and a creature in play, and my opponent has a creature in his graveyard, and I play Living Death, do I get to pick the order of resolution since I am the controller of both effects, causing my creature to die, his coming into play from the Living Death, then dieing from the Grave Pact (triggered by my initial creature dieing)? I hope I'm spelling 'dieing' right.
Will I be emailed or do I need to check this post again?Thanks __________________

Grave Pact has a triggered ability. It will go on the stack only after Livng Death finishes resolving, so no matter what he will have to sacrifice the creature that came into play.

A friend and I have been debating this for a while. I need to know exactly how cauldron dance works. He says that since it says that it may only be played during combat that in order to play it combat has to be initialized by having a creature attack. Anyway, I really just need the rule "may only be played during combat" cleared up. Thanks in advance.__________________

------------------------Text(IN): Play ~this~ only during combat. ; Return target creature card from your graveyard to play. That creature gains haste. Return it to your hand at end of turn. ; Put a creature card from your hand into play. That creature gains haste. Put it into your graveyard at end of turn. You must have a creature in your graveyard to play this spell since it requires a valid target. [Invasion FAQ 00/10/03]
You can play this spell when you have no creature card in your hand. If this happens, simply ignore that part of the spell. You still bring the graveyard creature into play and still return it to your hand at end of turn. [Invasion FAQ 00/10/03]
If the targeted creature in the graveyard is removed before resolution, this spell will be countered since its only target will be invalid. [Invasion FAQ 00/10/03]
------------------------------------- Well you can attack with it so you can play this only during your combat step
you dont have to have other creatures attacking with it __________________
