So, how exactly does the Kitten King interact with things like <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/rulestips\/wp-content\/plugins\/lems-mtg-helper\/lems-mtg-helper-cardfinder.php?find=Noble+Hierarch&width=223&height=310\" class=\"jTip\" name=\"\">Noble Hierarch<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/rulestips\/wp-content\/plugins\/lems-mtg-helper\/lems-mtg-helper-cardfinder.php?find=Knight+of+Glory&width=223&height=310\" class=\"jTip\" name=\"\">Knight of Glory<\/a>? The answer is \u2018pretty well\u2019. See, Exalted only cares about creatures being DECLARED as attackers &#8212; as in, you saying \u201cI\u2019m going to swing with this guy\u201d during the Declare Attackers step. Exalted doesn&#8217;t care one bit if creatures happen to end up attacking alongside your lone champion, so long as he&#8217;s the only one that was declared.<\/p>\n<p>So, put those little bits together and you get some fun. Brimaz attacks all by himself and gets the boost from your Exalted permanents, but he ALSO gets to bring along a 1\/1 Cat Soldier friend to the party without it messing up his Exaltation. The downside to that is that your Cat Soldiers also won&#8217;t trigger fun stuff that cares about them being declared &#8212; they won\u2019t get to trigger <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.magicjudges.org\/rulestips\/wp-content\/plugins\/lems-mtg-helper\/lems-mtg-helper-cardfinder.php?find=Hellrider&width=223&height=310\" class=\"jTip\" name=\"\">Hellrider<\/a>, for example.<\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s Rules Tip written by Trevor Nu\u00f1ez<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Exalted triggers when a creature is declared as an only attacker, and won&#8217;t care if Brimaz later pops out a kitten.
