<\/p>Hellrider<\/a> has come back into favor in a lot of aggro decks, and alongside it we\u2019re seeing a few more Planeswalkers being played. So it\u2019s easy to imagine that you might come into a situation where they interact! Hellrider<\/a>\u2019s ability is pretty simple; whenever you swing with a creature, Hellrider<\/a> triggers and burns your opponent for 1. But what if you need to aim that guaranteed 3 or 4 from the triggers at your opponent\u2019s Tamiyo, the Moon Sage<\/a> to keep her down? Well, you can. <\/p>\n

Hellrider<\/a>\u2019s trigger causes noncombat damage. So, it\u2019s noncombat damage from a source you control that would be dealt to an opponent. As such, it meets all the criteria for redirecting the damage to a Planeswalker said opponent controls. You can have any and all of your Hellrider<\/a> triggers hit your opponent\u2019s Planeswalkers. And since it\u2019s dealt in increments of 1, you can split it among multiple \u2018walkers too. Say they have a Tamiyo and a Jace, and you attack with 5 creatures; you can deal all 5 to one of them, or 4 to one and 1 to another, or 2 and 3, etc, etc. Of course it\u2019s all optional; you can have all the triggers burn your opponent as normal if you prefer.<\/p>\n
