~NOiSE~ Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 [quote name='Flame Dragon' timestamp='1350863916' post='6050216'] Neither happen. After you have the creature blocking, unless it has trample, you take 0 damage from it. This is because the creature is already treated as having been blocked. Also, if you do this to a creature with Lifelink they gain no life they gain no life since they the creature deal no damage (again, unless it has trample).

[/quote] I can't find it atm, but I've seen the interaction done on MTG Online. Edit: found it Q: If all the creatures blocking a particular creature are somehow removed from combat, does that make the creature unblocked? A: No. Once a creature becomes blocked, it stays blocked for the rest of combat, no matter what happens to the creatures blocking it. http://community.wizards.com/go/thread/view/75842/26321709/&post_num=32#475385085 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommanderVolt Posted November 15, 2012 Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 At the time you use Ninjitsu, and the ninja enters the battlefield tapped and attacking, is it possible to pair it with an unbound, soul-bond creature? Or does it have to wait untill after damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miror B Posted November 15, 2012 Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 Alright figured I'd ask this here. I control Izzet Staticaster. Use her tap effect. Opponent responds by using some card I don't remember but it basically would do 2 damage to Staticaster and destroy her. Does she stll resolve? *is trying to get off of yugimons logic but still unsure* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any effect, once activated, will resolve unless what it's trying to do becomes impossible or the effect becomes countered by a spell that specifically counters it. e.g. If they did 2 damage to what Izzet Staticaster was trying to hit, killing that target, Staticaster's ability would fizzle and be countered. Doing 2 damage to Staticaster and killing her, however, does nothing to prevent her from resolving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerion Brightflame Posted November 17, 2012 Report Share Posted November 17, 2012 This probably seems like a stupid thing to ask, but does summoning sickness apply whenever a Creature enters play regardless where it comes from? So blinking with Resoration Angel, or stuff being brought back from the grave ect? Since, we aren't great where I play, and this came up in a game yesterday but no one was sure.

This Account is Unplayable Posted November 17, 2012 Report Share Posted November 17, 2012 It'll have summoning sickness. Summoning sickness only doesn't apply in scenarios where you controlled that creature since the beginning of your turn, or if the creature has haste.

Simping For Hina Posted November 17, 2012 Report Share Posted November 17, 2012 Summoning Sickness refers to tapping the creature from its own ability or being an attacker regardless of where is comes into play from. So, even if you blink it, it would still suffer from Summoning Sickness if it doesn't have haste.Summoning Sickness refers to tapping the creature from its own ability or being an attacker regardless of where is comes into play from.

~NOiSE~ Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Heard from a longtime player that lifelink carries into the negatives. i.e. My 2/2 creature with lifelink is blocked by a 1/1 creature but I still gain 2 life. I think he's wrong but I just want to clarify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hounds Of Anubis Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 He's right. Your creature still deals 2 damage with every hit it makes, so you recover 2 life every time, regardless of what toughness it would leave what it's fighting at. i.e. 2 damage to a 1 toughness creature yields 2 life. 2 damage to a 2 toughness creature yields 2 life. 2 damage to a 3 toughness creature yields 2 life.

[/quote] To add to this, any damage the creature with Lifelink does will gain you life. So for example if you give it something that would let it tap to deal 1 damage you'll gain 1 life everytime you do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miror B Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 Can +1/+1 counters exist on a non-creature? For an actual example, I use Golgari Keyrune, use it's ability to make it an artifact creature then Scavenge some counters onto it, do the counters go away when it returns to being a regular artifact?
