    Aegis of the Legion's last ability triggers when a mentor ability of the equipped creature resolves. If it became unattached from a creature before a mentor ability of that creature resolves, Aegis of the Legion's last ability won't trigger when that ability resolves. Similarly, if Aegis of the Legion becomes attached to a creature that is the source of a mentor ability on the stack, Aegis of the Legion's last ability will trigger when that mentor ability resolves.

  • WotCFeb 2, 2024

    If the creature with mentor leaves the battlefield with the mentor ability on the stack, use its power as that creature last existed on the battlefield to determine whether the target creature has lesser power.

  • WotCFeb 2, 2024

    If the target creature's power is no longer less than the attacking creature's power as the ability resolves, mentor doesn't add a +1/+1 counter. For example, if two 3/3 creatures with mentor attack and both mentor triggers target the same 2/2 creature, the first to resolve puts a +1/+1 counter on it and the second does nothing.

  • WotCFeb 2, 2024

    Mentor compares the power of the creature with mentor with that of the target creature at two different times: once as the triggered ability is put onto the stack, and once as the triggered ability resolves. If you wish to raise a creature's power so its mentor ability can target a bigger creature, the last chance you have to do so is during the beginning of combat step.
