    In this case, both Lunar Force's and Reality Smasher's abilities will trigger (C.R. 608.1a) and get to resolve. Regardless of whose turn it is, after both abilities resolve, Doom Blade will have been countered (whether or not you choose to discard a card when Reality Smasher's ability resolves). And when Lunar Force's ability resolves, even if Lunar Force has left the battlefield and you can't sacrifice it, the spell it refers to (here, Doom Blade) will still be countered if possible (C.R. 101.3, 608.2c; see also this thread).


    Hi, correct me if I am wrong

    So the end result will be:
    Lunar force will be sacrifice due to the "cast" wording
    My opponent will not be need to discard a card.

    thanks all for the replies
    In a way, I will end up having a "undying" Eternal Witness as long as I have a white mana available to cast my Cloudshift

    case 1:
    I have 1x Path to Exile in graveyard
    I have 2x Eternal Witness in play
    I cast Displace targeting my 2x Eternal Witness
    Will I be getting back both Displace and Path to Exile?

    case 2:
    I have no cards in graveyard
    I have 1x Eternal Witness in play
    I cast Cloudshift targeting my Eternal Witness
    Will I be getting back Cloudshift?

    Reckoner's ability triggered when it got damaged by the 2/2; from there, the ability is completely independent from the Reckoner and doesn't care what happens to it. As you put the ability on the stack, you choose a target to deal 2 damage to. This doesn't preclude Reckoner from triggering again from Shivan Meteor, and the Meteor's damage causing the Reckoner to be destroyed doesn't do anything to the first trigger for 2 damage even if it's still on the stack. So you'll deal 2 damage to a target and 13 damage to a target, it can be 15 total on your opponent.


    Hi, thanks for answering, what happen if its 3 dmg dealt to Reckoner? Will I be able to dealt 3+13=16 dmg to opponent? Or its just merely 3dmg to opponent since during dmg resolution, reckoner had been dealt lethal dmg?


    Just 3 damage.
    If the scenarion is the same but blocking elf is 3/3. Then in combat damage step , after all combat damage are dealt , both Reckoner and elf each has lethal damage. Before Reckoner's ability to be put on the stack , SBA will be checked and send both Reckoner and elf to the graveyard. This means , Reckoner will not be on the field for Shivan meteor in this case.


    Thanks for answering and clarification

    my Shivan Meteor is suspended with 2 time counters on it.

    I declare attack with Boros Reckoner, my opponent declare a 2/2 elf to block it.
    During damage resolution, 3 dmg is dealt to the elf and 2 dmg is dealt to Boros Reckoner.

    Since Boros Reckoner has a "Whenever" triggered ability, am I able to:
    Boros Reckoner's triggered ability on stack, I cast Fury Charm, removing 2 time counters from Shivan Meteor so that I can "cast" the Shivan Meteor targeting Boros Reckoner?

    If yes, what would be the dmg dealt to Boros Reckoner? 2+13=15 dmg or just 13 dmg from Shivan Meteor?

  • posted a message on winter orb and making it uptap during my turn
    This is not really a question but everything you said is correct. EOT of your turn, you can tap orb with manipulator.


    Hi

    So am I right to assume that I can make it in a way that Winter Orb is "tapped" at the start of my turn and "untapped" at the start of opponent's turn?

  • posted a message on Quicksilver Fountain and Shocklands


    I have Quicksilver Fountain and Watery Grave.
    All my opponent's lands have a flood counter (thus, all of them are islands)
    My lands are all islands except 1 Watery Grave

    Wish to know, at the end of turn, do I remove all the flood counters from all the lands?

  • posted a message on Snap and using the 2 untap lands to cast Counterspell


    My opponent have a elf in play.
    I have 2 Island untapped.
    My opponent cast a goblin.
    In response, I cast snap, returning the elf back to his hand and untap 2 lands, and tap the mana again to Counterspell his goblin.

    Is this a correct play?
