Candletrap Rulings
- Sep 24, 2021 A creature has different power from another if their powers are different numbers. For example, a 1/1 creature and a 2/1 creature have different powers.
- Sep 24, 2021 For three creatures to have different powers from one another, each of their powers needs to be different. A 1/1 creature, a 2/1 creature, and another 2/1 creature aren't three creatures with different powers, even though both 2/1 creatures have different power than the 1/1 creature.
- Sep 24, 2021 Many coven abilities, such as that of Dawnhart Wardens above, are triggered abilities with intervening if clauses. You must control three or more creatures with different powers at the time the ability triggers and at the time the ability tries to resolve. They do not, however, need to be the same set of creatures in both cases.
