Title: Waking Filters
Questions: 10
---
Q: When an Odyssey filter land is in play and there is
also a Mirari's Wake in play, how much mana is produced
by activating the filter land?
-Mark M.
A: Let's read the card, shall we?
Mirari's Wake
{3}{G}{W}
Enchantment
Creatures you control get +1/+1.
Whenever you tap a land for mana, add one mana to your
mana pool of any type that land produced.
So if you put one mana into a Skycloud Expanse, you can
get either WUU or WWU.
---
Q: Can equipment equipping a creature equip it again?
-Fernando
A: As long as the equipment is not Lightning Greaves, or
as long as the creature hasn't been given
untargetability after the equipment is put on, then yes.
---
Q: If I have a Jungle Barrier in play and my opponent
uses a card that affects all green creatures, does it
affect Jungle Barrier too?
-Bluejeanskittie
A: Yes. Jungle Barrier's mana cost is {2}{G}{U}, so it
is both blue and green. So cards that affect "all green
creatures" will affect Jungle Barrier, since Jungle
Barrier is green.
---
Q: When do I have to discard if I have over 7 cards in
my hand?
-Yong J.
A: Only during the Cleanup step (at the end of your
turn).
314. Cleanup Step
314.1. If the active player’s hand contains more cards
than his or her maximum hand size (normally seven), he
or she discards enough cards to reduce the hand size to
that number (this game action doesn’t use the stack).
---
Q: I have Dawn of the Dead in play and I have a Bottle
Gnome in my graveyard. Beginning of Upkeep I lose a life
and bring bottle Gnome into play.
If I sacrifice Bottle Gnome to gain 3 life do I still
have to remove it out of the game at end of turn?
-Adrian
A: No. Dance of the Dead will look in the place it put
the Bottle Gnomes (the in play zone). Since the Bottle
Gnomes aren't there, Dance of the Dead won't be able to
remove it from the game.
---
Q: If I have Thorn Elemental with Lure on it, and my
opponent has 2 2/2's out, and I attack not having it
deal its damage directly, do they lose 10 or 5 life?
-Jello
A: They lose 0 life. Thorn Elemental doesn't have
trample.
---
Q: I have Leonin Scimitar out, and I pay the one
colorless to equip it to a 1/1 flying vanilla. On your
next turn, could you equip it to another creature?
-Roberts
A: Sure. If you had the spare mana, you could move it to
multiple creatures in the same turn.
---
Q: Player A has a creature card in play. He plays
Pemmin's Aura targeting that creature. In response,
Player B plays Unsummon targeting that creature.
In response to this, Player A plays the abilities of
Pemmin's Aura to make the creature untargetable....
-Nic
A: This is illegal. The Pemmin's Aura is not yet in
play, so Player A can't play any of its abilities. The
creature will be returned to Player A's hand, and the
Pemmin's Aura will be countered on resolution (since the
creature is no longer in play).
---
Q: Can you play Time Ebb on a token?
A: Sure. When the token is put on top of its owner's
library, it is immediately removed from the game as a
state-based effect.
---
Q: My opponent played a token, does it have a converted
mana cost?
-Richard M.
A: Unless the spell or ability that created it gave it a
converted mana cost, then no. However, such a token is
treated by the game to have a converted mana cost of 0
whenever an effect asks for the token's mana cost, since
it is undefined (104.2).
See you Friday.
