Questing Beast Rulings

  • Oct 4, 2019

    If the opponent dealt damage controls no planeswalkers, Questing Beast's last ability simply does nothing.

  • Oct 4, 2019

    Once a creature with power 3 or greater has blocked this creature, changing the power of the blocking creature won't cause this creature to become unblocked.

  • Oct 4, 2019

    Questing Beast only stops combat damage from being prevented by effects that specifically use the word “prevent.”

  • Oct 4, 2019

    The damage Questing Beast deals to the target planeswalker as its last ability resolves isn't combat damage.
