To begin this discussion, let\u2019s get right into a question. We\u2019re back on Theros, and I cast Hero\u2019s Downfall<\/a> on an Elspeth, Sun\u2019s Champion<\/a>. What happens?<\/p>\n Now that we know what \u201cDestroy\u201d means, what happens if you were to cast the same Hero\u2019s Downfall<\/a> on a Verdurous Gearhulk<\/a>, and in response I sacrifice my Welding Jar<\/a> to regenerate the Gearhulk?<\/p>\n What if I attack you with the same 4\/4 Verdurous Gearhulk<\/a> (with no counters on it) and you block with a 4\/4 Lathnu Hellion<\/a>, what happens after the turn based action of combat damage in the combat damage step?<\/p>\n So if Destroy and Dies will do and look at the same thing, then why do we have 2 terms in the game for it?<\/p>\n Let\u2019s consider this example. You control 4 Ornithopters<\/a> and I control a Rest in Peace<\/a>, and I cast a Fracturing Gust<\/a>. How much life would I gain after Fracturing Gust resolves?<\/p>\n Let\u2019s look at Darksteel Colossus<\/a>. If you were to target it with the same Hero\u2019s Downfall<\/a> from earlier, and you control a Blood Artist<\/a>. Will the Blood Artist trigger?<\/p>\n What if you Tragic Slip<\/a> the Darksteel Colossus<\/a> with Morbid being active? Will your Blood Artist<\/a> still trigger?<\/p>\n What if you were to Tragic Slip<\/a> a Darksteel Myr<\/a>? Will that trigger your Blood Artist<\/a>?<\/p>\n Josh Ohlendorf introduced a question about Legendary Permanents, and timing of how the Legend Rule works. If you control a Catacomb Sifter<\/a> and a Rishkar, Peema Renegade<\/a>, and then cast a second Rishkar, how does the Legendary Rule interact with the triggered ability from both the Catacomb Sifter and Rishkar #2?<\/p>\n So time for a final exam! I\u2019m playing Modern Bogles and have a Gladecover Scout<\/a> enchanted with a Hyena Umbra<\/a> and a Spider Umbra<\/a>, both of which have Totem Armor. You cast an Anger of the Gods<\/a>. What happens?<\/p>\n Further reading: Destroy CR 701.7<\/a>\u00a0;\u00a0Dies CR 700.4<\/a> Summary of Difference between Destroy and\u00a0Dies To begin this discussion, let\u2019s get right into a question. We\u2019re back on Theros, and I cast on an . What happens? Jason Chance explained what Destroy means quite clearly – When the spell resolves, Elspeth is destroyed. To carry out that action, you move her from the […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":328,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"language":[],"class_list":["post-468","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-rulesday-tuesday"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/greatlakes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/468","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/greatlakes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/greatlakes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/greatlakes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/328"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/greatlakes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=468"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/greatlakes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/468\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":486,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/greatlakes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/468\/revisions\/486"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/greatlakes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=468"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/greatlakes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=468"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/greatlakes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=468"},{"taxonomy":"language","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/greatlakes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/language?post=468"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n
