Whenever one or more nonland cards are milled, put a +1/+1 counter on each of up to X target creatures, where X is the number of nonland cards milled this way.
The Wise Mothman is legal in Legacy and Commander, and not legal in Standard, Pioneer, Modern and Pauper.
The Wise Mothman Rulings
- Mar 8, 2024 Any effects (such as proliferate) that interact with counters a player gets, has, or loses can interact with rad counters.
- Mar 8, 2024 If a player has fewer cards remaining in their library than the number of rad counters they have when the triggered ability resolves, they’ll mill as many cards as they can.
- Mar 8, 2024 If more than one player is instructed to mill at the same time (by the activated ability of Raul, Trouble Shooter, for example), as long as at least one nonland card is milled, The Wise Mothman’s last ability will trigger just once.
- Mar 8, 2024 In a game using the shared team turns option, such as an Archenemy or Two-Headed Giant game, the inherent triggered ability associated with rad counters triggers once for each player on the active team that has rad counters. Each instance of that ability is controlled by one of those players.
- Mar 8, 2024 Keep track of how many rad counters each player has. Potential ways to track this include writing them down on paper or using dice, but any method that is clear and mutually agreeable is fine.
