no. "Medomai the Ageless can't attack during extra turns." if it has double strike, you get 2 extra turns. they are both extra, and it cannot attack during either of them.

I announce I am casting a Heliod's Emissary using its bestow cost, targeting a creature in play. In response to casting it this way, the targeted creature is removed. At this point, it ceases to be an aura spell and will be on the stack as if I'm casting a creature.

Correct so far, right?

So, at this point, can this creature spell be countered using Annul? I'm thinking yes, since enchantment is still part of its type.

If you cast for the bestow cost it remains an enchantment and NOT a creature while it is on the stack. It doesn't check if the target is valid until it resolves at which time in may instead enter play as an enchantment creature.

So if I Doom Blade a creature you targeted with a bestowed Boon Satyr I can't cast Remove Soul to counter Boon Satyr.

"If you chose to pay this spell's bestow cost, it becomes an Aura enchantment and gains enchant creature. These effects last until one of two things happens: this spell has an illegal target as it resolves or the permanent this spell becomes, becomes unattached."

Protection from white wouldn't do anything for you. Protection from white would prevent your Stormbreath Dragon from being targeted by white spells, from being blocked by white creatures and reduces damage white sources would deal to Stormbreath Dragon to 0.

If Stormbreath Dragon had protection from green instead, you could block the creature and all damage your Dragon would take would be reduced to 0.

Polukranos, World Eater
Legendary Creature - Hydra (MR)
XXG: Monstrosity X. (If this creature isn’t monstrous, put X +1/+1 counters on it and it becomes monstrous.)
When Polukranos, World Eater becomes monstrous, it deals X damage divided as you choose among any number of target creatures your opponents control. Each of those creatures deals damage equal to its power to Polukranos.
5/5[/B][/QUOTE]

You can search for any three cards that have "creature" as a type. Extra types like enchantment, artifact, or legendary don't matter as long as the word "creature" is also there.

Polukranos:

If you activate with 0 as the X cost the ability will deal 0 damage. The X in the ability text is the same X in the activation cost, it is not based on the creature's power.

Gift of Immortality and Heroic:

For example, can I still search for one with Worldly Tutor? And can I still put a god into play with Oath of Druids?

Yes

http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=373535
9/15/2013 The type-changing ability that can make the God not be a creature functions only on the battlefield. It’s always a creature card in other zones, regardless of your devotion to its color.
9/15/2013 If a God enters the battlefield, your devotion to its color (including the mana symbols in the mana cost of the God itself) will determine if a creature entered the battlefield or not, for abilities that trigger whenever a creature enters the battlefield.

When you cast and aura it targets the creature so it will trigger heroic, but when it comes back it doesn't target the creature - it just becomes attached. You will have to cast a new spell if you want to trigger the heroic ability again.

2)my opponent cast a sphinx revelation for 9 then in responds to his revelation i cast Skullcrank..the QUESTION is do he gain 9 life or just simply draw 9 cards and gain nothing....

---

1. No. The creature was countered. It left the stack and went directly to the graveyard. I guess I should also note that the "player cannot cast spells" part doesn't go into effect until it resolves and does not affect spells already on the stack.

2. Same deal as #1. Answer is no. Never came into play so the enters-the-battlefield ability never triggers.

3. He draws 9 cards, gains no life and takes 3 damage from Skullcrack. This assumes that there are no other triggers and no one casts anything else.
