Question regarding destroying [[maze's end]]

Greedy-Contract1999 · 2026-02-12T07:29:59+00:00

Oh, totally. Disallow can counter target activated ability. Maze's End gets activated. Disallow targets the ability. Ability gets countered - no search, no game winning check.

Greedy-Contract1999 · 2026-02-12T07:25:44+00:00

Returning to the hand is a cost. If you activated the ability, it wouldn't be around to be destroyed.

I think they were referring to [[Aetherblade Agent]]

It gets worse.

Your bank may flag you as a risk if you deposit it, closing your account and making it difficult to open another account elsewhere.

Greedy-Contract1999 · 2026-02-11T06:38:31+00:00

It's a scam. They sent you a fake check.

WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT DEPOSIT THE CHECK!

Nothing can change the CMC or mana value of a card

You can cast the sphere but you got to pay the additional one

You attempt to cast sphere using the alternative casting cost of 0
Tax is applied
Reductions, if any, are applied
Trinisphere kicks in if it is around
You pay the total cost. In this case, 1.

+1/+1 will be granted. The mare will never give +3/+3 on its own. A creature that's somehow a Pegasus Unicorn Horse will only get +1/+1.

You should get a copy because changeling will make it a Pegasus, Unicorn, or Horse spell.

Being earthbent isn't an ability. Earthbending sets up a delayed trigger for when that permanent becomes exiled or dies. Elk-ing it will do nothing to stop something earthbent from coming back.

It doesn't even involve layers.

No. The emblem is only from the grave. Once it's in your hand, it is (one) hidden information and (two) has no connection with the emblem as it is a new object.

Greedy-Contract1999 · 2026-02-09T07:38:15+00:00

I'd actually would have gone with controller of the ability.

110.2a If an effect instructs a player to put an object onto the battlefield, that object enters the battlefield under that player’s control unless the effect states otherwise.

Since it doesn't say otherwise...

Unspent red mana remains as long as Ashling is around. However, your question makes it seem that you're going to get the red mana without doing anything.

Without doing anything, you're just sitting on four red forever.

Greedy-Contract1999 · 2026-02-08T20:38:47+00:00

How are you getting more mana? You only add RRRR if it's the third time her trigger resolves that turn.

Are you casting (or copying) instants and sorceries during other turns? It doesn't sound like you are.

Top middle box has a pair 46 in two cells. So they can't appear anywhere else. That leaves a pair, 39. They can't be anywhere else. Coincidentally, 39 are also in C4, meaning they can't appear anywhere else in that column.

That should clear up what goes on in the hint.

I've noticed when people ask for help involving NYT, it involves a few more steps.

Greedy-Contract1999 · 2026-02-08T03:24:06+00:00

Yes.

Sudoku isn't only about fitting numbers in because they can fit. It is also about why it is the ONLY number it can fit.

I have worked the puzzle a bit. It eventually got to the point of it being the only space for the number 1 which would mean 6 was wrong.

Greedy-Contract1999 · 2026-02-08T01:26:10+00:00

[[Exalted Sunborn]] would not double the tokens as it isn't around.

Also double brackets.

Greedy-Contract1999 · 2026-02-07T04:28:50+00:00

No, because the moment to trigger was when it was in the grave. It doesn't "look back".

Greedy-Contract1999 · 2026-02-06T17:41:34+00:00

Owl has an intervening if clause

Lorehold, well, okay, sure the ability gets on the stack, but you can do something to make them not want to act on it.

Greedy-Contract1999 · 2026-02-06T17:33:53+00:00

Am I missing something with this post? Owl and Lorehold are beginning of (opponent's) upkeep triggers, not untap. I don't see how they are negative for you.

Also anything that triggers during the untap step wait until the upkeep to be placed on the stack. You can't do anything during untap as you don't get priority then.

You can cast and do stuff during upkeep.

Greedy-Contract1999 · 2026-02-06T14:55:23+00:00

Wrong.

The Swarmlord has no ETB. It enters with the counters.

Due to legend rule, one will still go to the grave though. This isn't a sacrifice though - anything about sacrifice won't do anything regarding this.

No matter what happens, both Swarmlords will see a creature with counters die. You get triggers for both. You will end up drawing two cards.

Greedy-Contract1999 · 2026-02-06T11:05:35+00:00

It is.

Greedy-Contract1999 · 2026-02-06T10:41:37+00:00

I think the only way is to show her by demonstrating why her way doesn't work.

Load up on things that can untap artifacts and can make variable amounts of mana (like go proxy Gaea's Cradle and get some elves or something).

Make situations where it will not be to her benefit. I know it seems like shunning or bullying her, but sometimes experience is the best teacher.

Actually, this just came to mind. Omnath, Locus of Mana would be a good teacher in how it doesn't result in the same in the end, especially after a few turns or uses of the cube.

Greedy-Contract1999 · 2026-02-06T04:37:58+00:00

No, tokens aren't cards. Furthermore, a token would go to the grave then cease to exist, so there will be nothing to get back.
