Chainer's Torment Rulings

  • Apr 27, 2018

    A chapter ability doesn't trigger if a lore counter is put on a Saga that already had a number of lore counters greater than or equal to that chapter's number. For example, the third lore counter put on a Saga causes the III chapter ability to trigger, but I and II won't trigger again.

  • Apr 27, 2018

    As a Saga enters the battlefield, its controller puts a lore counter on it. As your precombat main phase begins (immediately after your draw step), you put another lore counter on each Saga you control. Putting a lore counter on a Saga in either of these ways doesn't use the stack.

  • Apr 27, 2018

    Each symbol on the left of a Saga's text box represents a chapter ability. A chapter ability is a triggered ability that triggers when a lore counter that is put on the Saga causes the number of lore counters on the Saga to become equal to or greater than the ability's chapter number. Chapter abilities are put onto the stack and may be responded to.

  • Apr 27, 2018

    If an effect such as that of Anointed Procession causes the final chapter ability of Chainer's Torment to create two Nightmare Horror tokens, each will deal X damage to you.

  • Apr 27, 2018

    If another effect causes the Nightmare Horror token's power or toughness to be a number other than X immediately after it enters the battlefield, the amount of damage it deals to you is still X, not its modified power or toughness.
