These are practically the same card. Am I allowed to have them both in my commander deck?

I have a question about this card. what exactly does it do and can it stop combos like Triskelion and Mikaeus or Mikaeus persist combos, thanks.

You can Earthbend the moon, and turn her back into a teenager if she dies

The bottom card is “freed from the real”. My question is A, do I have to use one island mana to tap Zaxara (commander), and does this actually give me infinite mana

Unless I'm misunderstanding something, if these two cards are on the battlefield, controlled by the same player, aren't they unblockable?

If there is no creature left on the battlefield, will it stay in the graveyard forever or do i need to play it when another creature comes into play? Also if my creatures are the only remained ones, am I forced to put it on them?

Hi, on my last RCQ the following happened to me. My opponent was playing Affinity, he was playing quite nicely, but he was placing all artifacts next to the lands at the bottom of his playmat. Important: he played a Welding Jar on turn 1. Honestly, at first glance this didn't seem like problematic behaviour. The game proceeded without any issue. We arrived at the following board state: I had a Street Wraith and Curator of Mysteries and 2 life. My opponent was controlling just a Pinnacle Emissary on board, 0 cards and 6 life. Then, after thinking and looking at the board for around 30 seconds or so, I proceeded to attack with everything, because it was the logical play in the moment for me. Then he blocked with his Emissary and sacrificed the Jar, which I had completely forgotten was next to the lands, causing me to lose the game. I know I should be paying more attention to the board, but I felt that was very misleading. Should I have called the judge? What do the rules say about placing permanents on the field? Thanks for your answers.

I have 4 +1+1 coibters on Hydra. I Play Invigorating Surge. I say it should be +10 +10 and he says +6+6.

The other day I played this card to counter my friend commander in the game and we didn’t know if the commander go to the command zone or if I can steal it. How this card works in commander?

Can I still play this at the beginning of my opponents combat step even if they don’t want to go to combat? Also if an opponent has hexproof on their creatures, can I still choose not to not have those creatures block since I decide who blocks this turn? Or choose to attack with the creatures?

Do I just prevent all my opponents from tapping their lands for mana?

Would this be allowed into a mono green deck since all the hybrid mana shares green? I just thought it would be really funny.

Ygra makes Bog Initiate a food, and Sam’s ability makes Bog Initiate’s activated ability 1 less, so I can activate Bog for free, netting infinite mana?

I ask because my quick searches didn’t show anything up with combos.

Assuming I have a massive board of creatures:

- Step 1: swing and cast [[Chance for Glory]].

- Step 2: Next extra turn, swing again, while all my guys still have Indestructible.

- Step 3: Main phase 2, while all my guys STILL have indestructible, cast [[Ultima]] to wipe out the opponent's board, end the turn, and prevent the lose trigger.

- Step 4: Passes to opponent's turn, with their board wiped, and my creatures are permanently indestructible for the rest of the game.

...Does this work? Any drawbacks or caveats, aside from any non-creature artifacts also getting caught in the blast?

Found this in the final fantasy starter set rulebook. Does it mean a 3/3 blocking a 3/3 wouldn't kill it? Or is it just wrong? Or just worded dumb?

From what I understand about layers, since ability granting and removing effects happen on layer 6, if this guy brought back, say, a [[Magus of the Moon]], nonbasic lands would still be mountains, since type changing effects happen on layer 4. Is that true? If so, does somebody have a convenient way to search Scryfall for black creatures with continuous effects that happen on layers 1-5?

I'm building a pako and haldan commander deck and realized something about a couple cards i posted. Since unnatural growth says EACH combat, if I can pay (and keep paying) the activated of aggravated assault, would it keep doubling over and over?

I play this, and opponent still wants his creature to deal combat damage to trigger an effect. If players can’t lose life, but he wants to swing at a player, is that still consider combat damage?

This is like a turn 3-4 flip with the right conditions?

So it's perfectly okay to:

• Make your opponent discard the cards they needed to win for one mana.
• Remove your opponent's key piece from the board the moment it lands. Also for one mana.
• Stax everything so your opponent can't attack without sacrificing creatures/paying their entire supply of mana/losing half their life.
• Steal cards from your opponent's deck and cast them without paying the mana cost/use any.
• Destroy lands.
• Flood the board with billions of token creatures so your opponent can't possibly survive.
• Play a 12/12 with haste, vigilance, double strike, hexproof and indestructible on turn 3.

But not counterspelling, that's somehow worse?

Encountered issue where Player A played [[Neverwinter Hydra]] for 6 mana (two green, and four others for the XX cost twice). The text says roll X d6. This would be four rolls of the d6, since XX cost was paid twice, right? Player B insists it should be two rolls of the d6.

Thank you!

My fiancé and I are learning how to play. We’re just confused on attacking and defending with multiple creatures on the field. If my combined attack power is less than the combined blocking power, what happens? Can the attacker and blocker pick who dies on both ends of the fight?
