  • WotCNov 17, 2025

    All of the -1/-1 counters must be put on a single creature. You can't choose to split them up between multiple creatures.

  • WotCNov 17, 2025

    If Champion of the Weird is countered or otherwise fails to resolve, the beheld card will remain in exile indefinitely.

  • WotCNov 17, 2025

    If a card in your hand is already revealed (perhaps because it was revealed to pay a cost of a spell that's still on the stack or due to the effect of a card like Telepathy), you may reveal it again to pay the cost of another spell or ability that requires you to reveal a card from your hand.

  • WotCNov 17, 2025

    If a cost to cast a spell includes revealing a card, that card remains revealed from the time the spell is announced until the time it leaves the stack.

  • WotCNov 17, 2025

    If a creature has +1/+1 counters and -1/-1 counters on it, state-based actions remove the same number of each so that it has only one kind of those counters on it. For example, if a creature has three +1/+1 counters on it and two -1/-1 counters are put on it, state-based actions will remove two of each of those kinds of counters, leaving the creature with just one +1/+1 counter.

  • WotCNov 17, 2025

    If a creature that has +1/+1 counters on it receives enough -1/-1 counters to cause it to be destroyed by lethal damage or put into its owner's graveyard for having 0 or less toughness, effects that refer to the counters on that creature when it died will see all of those +1/+1 and -1/-1 counters.

  • WotCNov 17, 2025

    If an effect refers to a "[subtype] card," it refers only to a card that has that subtype. For example, Glen Elendra's Answer creates a Faerie token and features a Faerie in its art, but it isn't a Faerie card.

  • WotCNov 17, 2025

    If you can't place -1/-1 counters on any creatures you control (probably because you control no creatures), you can't choose to blight.

  • WotCNov 17, 2025

    Once you've announced that you're casting a spell or activating an ability, players can't take actions until you've finished doing so. Notably, opponents can't try to destroy or otherwise remove your creatures to stop you from blighting as part of paying the cost of that spell or ability.

  • WotCNov 17, 2025

    The creature you choose to put -1/-1 counters on doesn't have to have enough toughness to survive the process. For example, if you blight 2, you can choose to put the counters on a 1/1 creature you control.
