Sphinx of the Revelation Rulings
5 most recent
- Jun 7, 2024 Each creature with lifelink dealing combat damage causes a separate life-gaining event. For example, if two creatures you control with lifelink deal combat damage at the same time, Sphinx of the Revelation's triggered ability will trigger twice. This may be relevant if you control a permanent with an ability that triggers "Whenever you get one or more {E}."
- Jun 7, 2024 Energy counters are a kind of counter that a player may have. They're not associated with any specific permanents.
- Jun 7, 2024 Energy counters aren't mana. They don't go away as steps, phases, and turns end, and effects that add mana "of any type" can't give you energy counters.
- Jun 7, 2024 If a spell or ability with one or more targets states that you "may pay" some amount of {E}, and each permanent that it targets has become an illegal target, the spell or ability won't resolve. You can't pay any {E} even if you want to.
- Jun 7, 2024 If an effect says you get one or more {E}, you get that many energy counters. To pay one or more {E}, you lose that many energy counters. You can't pay more energy counters than you have. Any effects that interact with counters a player gets, has, or loses can interact with energy counters.
