Converted Mana cost can't be changed. 1R = 2. I'm also pretty sure Warchief says 1 less to play, which does not modify converted. | ||

My point was multiple creatures dying at the same time will trigger the sharpshooters ability a number equal to the creatures dying. However, WoG would kill the sharpshooter, so in this example,there would be no untapping, because by the time the sharpshooters ability would trigger (creatures hitting the bin) It would have been placed in the yard. Then yes, if your goblin survives, it can activate its ability. | ||

I mean I really don't understand how that card works at all. Also how do you kill them? Since it's not a creature. EDIT: Can its abilities only be played once per turn? Because that would make more sense. | ||

2 groups of 5, randomly assigned, will each play eachother in a bo2. You are allowed to use your Sideboard in game 2. If you win 2-0, you gain three points. If you play 1-1, both players gain one point. Losing gives no points. The reason I've decided for a bo2 instead of a bo3 is that there will be a lot of games in Round 1. From here, the player placing first from each group advance to the semifinals. The players placing second and third will advance to round 2. Group A's second place will play Group B's third place and the other way around. These matches will be bo3, and the winners advance to the semifinals. The semifinals will be bo5 and the finals will be bo7. There will be a loser's finals as well, which will be bo5. The groups are as following: Group A: 1. fgsvsd (TL.net) 2. Caller (TL.net) 3. LordWeirD (GG.net) 4. Demoninja (TL.net) 5. kirtar111 (TL.net) Group B: 6. FragKrag (TL.net) 7. brambolius (GG.net) 8. Krohm (TL.net) 9. Lisk (TL.net) 10. DeaTh_LT (TL.net) | ||

You untap two lands, and you get +1 counter? Then if you remove 1 counter, you can put a 3/3 creature into play? Wouldn't that mean you could keep untapping lands, while playing your hand? I mean I really don't understand how that card works at all. Also how do you kill them? Since it's not a creature. EDIT: Can its abilities only be played once per turn? Because that would make more sense. Planeswalkers have their own category, aptly named 'planeswalker'. They count as permanents so a vindicate will fix them for you. They start with a set amount of 'loyalty' which is the counters placed on them, as showed in the bottom right. They don't have 'summoning sickness'. Every turn, at the time you could play a sorcery, you can use one of their abilities. That means, every turn Garruk would be able to untap 2 of your lands and get +1 counter, make a 3/3 creature and lose a counter, or give all your creatures overrun and lose 4 counters. As soon as all counters are gone, a planeswalker dies and goes into the graveyard. Creatures can choose to attack either a player or a planeswalker, blocking works normally, trample etc too. For every point of damage a plainswalker receives, remove 1 loyalty counter. Effects like Lightning Bolt are supposed to target players, and if the player who's targeted by them, decides to let the spell resolve, the person playing the ability can then decide to let it go into the planeswalker instead. This to avoid having to write new oraclerules for every spell saying 'deals 3 damage to target creature, player or planeswalker.' Spells like earthquake which damage everything, don't hit planeswalkers. Also: The new restrictions won't be effective until the 20th of June =) So have fun playing 4 brainstorms and 4 ponders! | ||

I don't see how he can 'stack' a +2 while having a -3 if damage all happens at the same time. | ||

So yes, it's pretty imba, but then again it costs shitloads of mana as well so meh. | ||

So yes, it's pretty imba, but then again it costs shitloads of mana as well so meh. Not, really that only 5 mana. I don't see how that works though because if the damage didn't resolve yet and you stack a 0 damage on top, then how does the 5 damage go off with the last in first out rule if they doing damage at the same time. And not only that but shoudln't the negatives be countering each pump out forcing you to pump twice as hard to 'stack' it? | ||
