Grave Pact Rulings

5 most recent
  • Sep 1, 2023 If multiple creatures you control die at the same time, Grave Pact's ability will trigger that many times.
  • Sep 1, 2023 If two players each control a Grave Pact and a creature controlled by one of those players dies, a chain reaction happens. First the ability of that player's Grave Pact will trigger, causing each other player to sacrifice a creature. That sacrifice causes the ability of the other player's Grave Pact to trigger, and so on.
  • Sep 1, 2023 If you control more than one Grave Pact and a creature you control dies, each of the triggered abilities will trigger. Each other player will sacrifice a creature each time one of those abilities resolves.
  • Sep 1, 2023 In a Two-Headed Giant game, when a creature you control dies, Grave Pact's triggered ability will cause each other player, including your teammate, to sacrifice a creature. Grave Pact's ability won't trigger when a creature your teammate controls dies.
  • Sep 1, 2023 None of the players are targeted. A player with hexproof would still sacrifice a creature.
