Tad, awhile back one of the mods posted saying that posting a new edition of a topic that hasn;t been closed yet could result in smackage, so...It's also past 400, what are the odds that they're going to close it?

1. You can't stop him from activating it, assuming he has the mana available, but I suppose you could counter it with Bind.

2. Yes.

3. No, just one card.

If i have a Mirari in play and I play a counterspell, can I copy the counterspell and let it sit on the stack so that when my opponent plays a spell, I can counter it?

No. Counterspells must target spells already on the stack.

What's that supposed to mean? I've never smacked anyone for starting a thread they weren't "supposed to" before.

Bind can only counter the activated ability of cycling - the draw a card. It can't counter the triggered effect that deals damage.

can i gain control a creature i already control??

this is the case about a onslaught draft game:
i have a callous oppressor ( not quite sure about the name of the card) in play, and my opponent named zombie. on his side, he has only 3 zombies in play. It's my turn and my opponent activate the ability of a zombie (again forgotten the zombie's name), that creature of the type he name must attack this turn, and he named cephalid ( the callous is a cephalid). I don't want my cephalid to attack. therefore, before i announce combat, i choose to tap it and gain control a non-zombie creature of my own, just to keep the callous tapped so that iot couldn't attack. My opponent, a 'proffesional' player, says that that would not be possible coz the target is illegal. i argued that the text says" .. gain control of target creature that isn't..." its doesn't say whoever controls it.

pls help me out.. thanks

If Glarecaster redirects damage, is the damage now "white" instead of the original color?

In other words, if someone Solar Blasts my Glarecaster, can I redirect the damage at a pro-red creature? Will the damage be reduced to zero?

The damage is simply redirected, it remains the same color.
