![]() Q: Warrior en-Kor reads: " : redirect 1 damage from Warrior en-Kor to a creature you control." My question is, am I able to use the en-Kor's ability to filter all damage dealt to it by creatures to my Beloved Chaplain? The Chaplain has "protection from creatures," but the en-Kor doesn't require me to target a creature I control.Ī: The en-Kor’s text has been updated in the Oracle. See rule 409.1a-g in the Comprehensive Rulebook for the complete list of steps to be completed when playing a spell. Q: When is a spell considered to be "played"? Is it when it hits the stack or after it resolves?Ī: A spell is considered to be "played" when you’ve put it on the stack and completed all choices and payments for it. You can always find the most up-to-date texts in the Oracle, available here. Many, many cards, especially those printed before 1999 (when Sixth Edition Rules came out) have had their texts significantly changed from what’s printed on the card. If you don’t discard the land card, you’re not even allowed to play it. The Mox Diamond has an extra cost of discarding a land card from your hand when you play it. The Lotus Vale requires that you sacrifice two untapped lands if it would come into play if you don’t, it’s put into the graveyard before you can use it. Since they are in play when you have to pay extra for them, can you tap them for mana in as an instant before you sacrifice them (assuming you don't sack or discard land)?Ī: Both the cards have errata. Q: With cards like Mox Diamond and Lotus Vale, you either have to discard a land or sacrifice lands when they some into play. Read more about this and other State-Based Effects in the Comprehensive Rulebook, section 420. In casual play, people generally don’t bother putting the token (coin/piece of paper/dice) in the graveyard because it’s removed right after, but it’s supposed to be put in the graveyard. They stay in the graveyard long enough to trigger abilities, like the one of Soulcatchers' Aerie, before they are removed. ![]() Ed Christian, East Stroudsburg, PA, USAĪ: Tokens go to the graveyard as regular creatures, and are removed as a "state-based effect" when a player gets priority again. Is this a mistake, or does the token legally go to the graveyard before disappearing? I've seen players use combos of Battle Screech to put Bird tokens into play and Soulcatchers' Aerie to add +1/+1 counters "whenever a Bird is put into your graveyard from play." When a bird token is killed, Magic Online adds a +1/+1 counter to Soulcatchers' Aerie, but obviously the token does not physically exist in the graveyard. Q: I have a question regarding what happens to token creatures when they are killed. Runeis back to answer more of your questions, including one that's on everyone's mind… "Do token creatures go to the graveyard?" General / Older Card Questions ![]()
