I wonder if this will be legal in Modern. I have proxied it while playing against some Eldrazi decks and definitely helps a lot! Seems silly that this card is not legal in Modern but some of the Eldrazi creatures are.
I can't find the answer to this so here goes: I have Phyrexian Unlife on the field and I have 0 or less life. My opponent attacks for 5 damage which turns into infect counters. On my turn I gain 20 life putting me over 0 and back into positive. Do the -1 infect counters go away or stay?

If you have 3 of any of these out, you have effectively beaten RDW. I was weary when I first tried it out but I have not lost one game against RDW with all 12 of these in my deck.
Soul Sisters is one of the most consistently 4-0 decks on MTGO yet still hasn't received as much popularity as it should.
I agree with you here. I have been playing my own version of Soul Sisters for over a month on untap.in and I have beaten so many popular decks with it that I ended up buying it in paper. In fact, I am still waiting for the last 4 cards (in the mail) right now.
I replaced Wall of Rev with Rhox Faithmender. I don't care if anyone likes Rhox or not. He alone has brought me back from 2, 3, or 4 life left all the way to 60+ and a match win. I respect Rhox Faithmender and feel he is underutilized.
Ah thanks!
So basically if it was worded: Choose a Target Creature. That Creature Fights a Target Creature.
That would trigger it due to how it's worded. Since it was all in a single sentence the spell has no legal target. Gotcha.
So my opponent has Agent of the fates in play. I have only 1 creature, a Predator Ooze, in play with Lightning Greaves attached to it. My opponent casts Prey Upon on the Agent. Since the Greaves give Ooze shroud and Prey Upon states that "target creature" fights "target creature" then my opponent technically has no legal target. Obviously the 'fight' doesn't happen.
However, Does this still trigger the Agent's heroic forcing me to sac my Ooze? I would think so, but I wanted to ask since there is technically no legal target for his Prey Upon.
Question (it's a long one):
Lets say I have a Worldspine Wurm and I attack. It is dealing 15 trample damage. My opponent blocks with five 3/3's thus killing the wurm, and all five 3/3's.
OK, so nothing out of the ordinary there. The wurm puts three 5/5 tokens with trample onto the battlefield. My next attack phase I attack with the three 5/5 trample tokens for a total of 15 damage and my opponent blocks with four 3/3's. My opponent removed all 4 tokens and wanted to take 3 damage. I explained it doesn't work like that.
I explained that the 15 damage is split between 3 creatures, each one being a 5/5. My opponent still thought all of the 3/3 token would die and they would take 3 damage. I explained that two of the four 3/3's can block one of the 5/5 and this would leave one of the 3/3's alive. Then the same for another one of the 5/5 creatures. This would make the third 5/5's damage go through, thus dealing 5 damage instead of 3.
My opponent did not agree with me and still wanted to kill off all four. When I said only one of my 5/5's would die in that scenario, my opponent still disagreed with me.
I believe my opponent is unfamiliar with how trample works among multiple attackers with trample. I'm pretty sure it's not all lumped into one solid force, but spread across each individual creature.
On a different note, say I use a Roar of Challenge on...lets say a Corpsejack Menace. The opposing player has ten 2/2 creatures able to block. If I am correct, the Corpsejack is dealing 4 damage to each of them, and they are dealing 20 damage to it, ultimately killing everything. Is that correct?
As far as I can see on that, only two of the 2/2 creatures would die as Corpsejack Menace only has 4 damage to deal, but it would be Indestructable, so at the end of that turn there would be 8 2/2 creatures and the Corpsejack left alive.
Dang that's right, I forgot to factor in the Indestructible. But still, so only 2 of the 10 would die. Is the 4 damage split between the two 2/2's or do both of the 2/2's take 4 damage each?

I think it can still be targeted, just not countered. Same as casting a destroy creature spell on an indestructible creature, even though it doesnt kill the creature. Same concept.

So was I correct? Was my opponent just confused?
