So Oath has you reveal until you hit a creature. Then you put it into play and put all the revealed cards into the graveyard.As I understand it, you'd reveal until you hit the witness. It goes into play and at the same time the cards go to the graveyard, and both triggers (Witness comes into play, blessing goes into graveyard) want to go off at once. Active player goes "Stack Blessing, Stack Witness" and then you get one card back, and then shuffle the graveyard in.

You control both triggers, so you decide how they stack.

Long story http://community.wizards.com/go/thread/view/75842/27198293/Sacred_Ground__Annihilator Short story - Yes you will - effect opponent controls. 702.83a Annihilator is a triggered ability. "Annihilator N" means "Whenever this creature attacks, defending player sacrifices N permanents." __________________ What a willou tree thinks about.

No. Adding the mana and drawing the card all happens within the resolution of Manamorphose.

No. You can't start to resolve a spell or ability, stop to do other things, then come back and finish resolving the spell or ability later. The spell or ability resolves in its entirety.

No. A spell resolves completely before you can cast anything else. You would get the mana, draw a card, then be able to use the mana in your pool.

I attack with a Glisner Elf and I pump it up with Vines of Vastwood Kicked, and my opponent plays Beast Within, what happens, the Vines state that it can't be the target of spells or ablilities but if you resolve the stack the beast goes off first. Thanks, Mike

The creature would get Beasted. Generally you want to wait with your Vines until AFTER the creature get targeted.

Edit: Eh Semantics. Your statement as asked was a little vague, but it's pretty clear what happened.

When you play Phantasmal Image and copy an animated man-land, does it become a land EOT?

It becomes a land right then and there. A copy only copys printed values, so if you copy an animated mutavault, you get an UN-animated mutavault. __________________ "He fights you not because you have wronged him, but because you are there."[16:17] <@BrassMan> what do you need new tech for?

Smokestack has 2 different triggers. At the beginning of your upkeep, you stack them however you want. As long as you put the 'add a counter' on the stack first, and then the 'sac a permanent' above it, you will sac zero and then add a counter. Or you can do it the other way if you want, and the outcome will be reversed. __________________ "He fights you not because you have wronged him, but because you are there."[16:17] <@BrassMan> what do you need new tech for?

I assume you mean if you put equipment or enchantments on him after the Sudden Spoiling, would they fall off at the end of the turn when it returns to normal? If so, then yes, protection will cause anything equipped to or enchanting it to be unequipped or destroyed respectively. __________________ There's no need to fear, UNDERDOG is here!All your Gruul Nodorogs are belong to me.

For equipment if it is equiped to a creature, I try to move it onto another creature and in response my opponent kills the creature getting the equipment where does the equipment end up?

No it will not be. If the equip ability fails (is stifled or is countered because of an illegal target) the equipment doesnt just fall off the original creature. It stays right where it was. __________________ "He fights you not because you have wronged him, but because you are there."[16:17] <@BrassMan> what do you need new tech for?

I'll second this for confirmation. This is correct.

Ugh, copy effect. So, a couple Phyrexian Metamorph questions...1) If a Phyrexian Metamorph that is a copy of a Wurmcoil Engine dies, does it spit out the 2 Wurm tokens? 2) In the same vein, if I cast a Metamorph copying my opponents Emrakul does it get shuffled into my library? 3) If I cast Metamorph copying a Batterskull does it create the Germ Token and equip itself or is it just a standalone Equipment? Also, I'm pretty sure I know this one but I want to double check. That Metamorph that copied the Batterskull also gets that "3: Return Batterskull to it's owner's hand." ability so I can bounce the Metamorph back to my hand if I want to, right? __________________ PMs don't work in Chrome or Firefox 4.0+, see HERE for work arounds.

Yes. This is a zone change trigger. It sees itself transitioning zones and triggers.
quote: 2) In the same vein, if I cast a Metamorph copying my opponents Emrakul does it get shuffled into my library?
No. Emrakul's ability happens when it actually hits the graveyard, so at that point it's just a metamorph again.
quote: 3) If I cast Metamorph copying a Batterskull does it create the Germ Token and equip itself or is it just a standalone Equipment?
Yes. Living Weapon triggers when it enters the battlefield.

Yes. It gets all attributes of Batterskull, including the abilities.
