Apr 21, 2017Jhyrryl posted a message on MTG Salvation Deck Builder Coming SoonIt doesn't sound like this includes any kind of a collection manager? So there would be no way to build a Commander deck from among the cards I own without having to use a separate tool. Or while viewing a listed deck, see what cards I'd need to acquire to build it.Posted in: Articles

But my understanding is that the first trigger would let you give the Monstrosity Level "Level up 1", at which point you can start putting level counter on it. The next trigger would let you choose "{LEVEL 7+}[At the beginning of each end step, if it's not your turn, take an extra turn after this one.][3/5]". The trigger after that would let you choose "{Level 8+}[Flying, trample, R: Kargan Dragonlord gets +1/+0 until end of turn.][8/8]". Finally, the trigger after that would let you choose "{Level 12+)[Lifelink, indestructible][9/9]".
Writing it like that, it's obvious that the Monstrosity wouldn't benefit from using the firebreathing ability. Now if the abilities are granted in a different order, because you want to get indestructible on there first, then you end up with a smaller creature because the abilities are applied in the order in which they are listed on the card, which would be the order in which they are granted, so the last applicable ability that sets P/T would win out over the others.
So I feel that it's important to know what abilities to stack, which to hold in reserve, as well as having a nice long list of stuff to grant that isn't necessarily going to lead to a win condition. Some games you won't even need this to be your win condition because you're already winning, so you need to be prepared to make it good enough without compromising its usefulness in future games.
I find it interesting that going into the weekend we have so few contraptions revealed.
