1 Agitator Ant
Agitator Ant

Creature — Insect

2/2

At the beginning of your end step, each player may put two +1/+1 counters on a creature they control. Goad each creature that had counters put on it this way. (Until your next turn, those creatures attack each combat if able and attack a player other than you if able.)
If the creature doesn't meet any of the above exceptions and can attack, it must attack a player other than the controller of the spell or ability that goaded it if able. If the creature can't attack any of those players but could otherwise attack, it must attack a planeswalker an opponent controls, a battle an opponent controls, or a player who goaded it.

Attacking with a goaded creature doesn't cause it to stop being goaded. If there is an additional combat phase that turn, or if another player gains control of it before it stops being goaded, it must attack again if able.

If a creature you control has been goaded by multiple opponents, it must attack one of your opponents that hasn't goaded it, as that fulfills the maximum number of goad requirements. If a creature you control has been goaded by each of your opponents, the creature must attack an opponent (rather than a planeswalker or battle), but you choose which opponent it attacks.

If, during a player's declare attackers step, a creature that player controls that's been goaded is tapped, is affected by a spell or ability that says it can't attack, or hasn't been under that player's control continuously since the turn began (and doesn't have haste), then it doesn't attack. If there's a cost associated with having a creature attack a player, its controller isn't forced to pay that cost, so it doesn't have to attack that player.

Being goaded isn't an ability the creature has. Once it's been goaded, it must attack as detailed above even if it loses all abilities.

If a creature can't have +1/+1 counters put on it, its controller can't choose it just to have it become goaded. If it can have counters put on it but replacement effects cause it not to receive +1/+1 counters, it doesn't become goaded.

As Agitator Ant's ability resolves, first you choose which creature you control, if any, to put two +1/+1 counters on, then each other player in turn order does the same, knowing the choices made before them. Then each chosen creature receives its +1/+1 counters and becomes goaded.
1 Ancient Stone Idol
Ancient Stone Idol

Artifact Creature — Golem

12/12

Flash
This spell costs less to cast for each attacking creature.
Trample
When this creature dies, create a 6/12 colorless Construct artifact creature token with trample.
Ancient Stone Idol's cost is reduced for each attacking creature, not just creatures attacking you. It even counts your attacking creatures.

If there are enough attacking creatures, Ancient Stone Idol's cost can be reduced to .

The total cost to cast a spell is locked in before you pay that cost. For example, if you control five attacking creatures, including one you can sacrifice to add , Ancient Stone Idol costs to cast. Then you can sacrifice the creature when you activate mana abilities just before paying the cost, and it still costs only to cast.
1 Angel of the Ruins
1 Anya, Merciless Angel
Anya, Merciless Angel

Legendary Creature — Angel

4/4

Flying
Anya gets +3/+3 for each opponent whose life total is less than half their starting life total.
As long as an opponent's life total is less than half their starting life total, Anya has indestructible.
Damage dealt to Anya is tracked even if Anya has indestructible. For example, if Anya is dealt what would be lethal damage and Anya loses indestructible (perhaps because each opponent's life total is too high), it will be destroyed the next time state-based actions are performed. However, the check for whether a creature dealt damage by a source with deathtouch is destroyed happens only the first time that state-based actions are performed after that damage-dealing event.

If damage is dealt to Anya and to your opponents at the same time, Anya may gain indestructible and/or extra toughness before state-based actions are checked. Similarly, if damage is dealt to Anya by a source with lifelink controlled by an opponent, Anya may lose indestructible and/or toughness before state-based actions are checked.

If a player's starting life total is odd (Commander Vanguard? Sweet.), half that player's life total will be a fraction, and that's okay. For example, if an opponent's starting life total is 41, half that number is 20 ½. If that player's life total is 20 or less, Anya will have indestructible.
1 Boros Reckoner
Boros Reckoner

Creature — Minotaur Wizard

3/3

Whenever this creature is dealt damage, it deals that much damage to any target.
: This creature gains first strike until end of turn.
Boros Reckoner's first ability will trigger even if it is dealt lethal damage. For example, if it blocks a 7/7 creature, its ability will trigger and Boros Reckoner will deal 7 damage to the target.

Damage dealt by Boros Reckoner due to its first ability isn't combat damage, even if it was combat damage that caused that ability to trigger.

If Boros Reckoner is dealt damage by multiple sources at once, such as by two creatures blocking it, its ability triggers once and one target is dealt that much damage.
1 Brash Taunter
Brash Taunter

Creature — Goblin

1/1

Indestructible
Whenever this creature is dealt damage, it deals that much damage to target opponent.
, : This creature fights another target creature.
A creature can be dealt an amount of damage greater than its toughness. For example, if Brash Taunter is dealt 3 damage, its middle ability deals 3 damage, not 1, to the target opponent.

If your life total is brought to 0 or less at the same time that Brash Taunter is dealt damage, you lose the game before its middle ability goes on the stack.

If the target creature is an illegal target when Brash Taunter's last ability tries to resolve, the ability doesn't resolve. If Brash Taunter is no longer on the battlefield, the target creature won't deal or be dealt damage.
1 Darien, King of Kjeldor
Darien, King of Kjeldor

Legendary Creature — Human Soldier

3/3

Whenever you're dealt damage, you may create that many 1/1 white Soldier creature tokens.
If you're dealt damage that causes your life total to become 0 or less, you lose the game before the tokens can be created.
1 Etali, Primal Storm
Etali, Primal Storm

Legendary Creature — Elder Dinosaur

6/6

Whenever Etali attacks, exile the top card of each player's library, then you may cast any number of spells from among those cards without paying their mana costs.
If an exiled card has in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X when casting it without paying its mana cost.

If you cast any of the exiled cards, you do so as part of the resolution of the triggered ability. You can't wait to cast them later in the turn. Timing permissions based on a card's type are ignored, and the spells resolve before blockers are declared.

If you cast a card "without paying its mana cost," you can't pay any alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs. If the card has any mandatory additional costs, those must be paid to cast the card.

If you cast more than one of the exiled cards, you choose the order in which to cast them. A spell you cast this way can be the target of a later spell you cast this way. However, permanent spells cast this way won't resolve until you're done casting spells, so the permanents they become can't be the target of spells cast this way. For example, if you exile Twincast and Lightning Strike, you can cast Lightning Strike and then cast Twincast targeting it; but if you exile a creature card and an Aura card, you can't cast that Aura targeting that creature.

Any cards not cast, including land cards, remain in exile. They can't be cast on later turns, even if Etali attacks again.

Because all attacking creatures are chosen at once, a creature cast this way can't attack during the same combat as Etali, even if it has haste.

In a multiplayer game, if a player leaves the game, all cards that player owns leave as well. If you leave the game, any spells or permanents you control from Etali's ability are exiled.
1 Feather, Radiant Arbiter
Feather, Radiant Arbiter

Legendary Creature — Angel

4/3

Flying, lifelink
Whenever you cast a noncreature spell that targets only Feather, you may choose any number of other creatures that spell could target and pay for each of those creatures. If you do, for each of those creatures, copy that spell. The copy targets that creature. (Copies of permanent spells become tokens.)
Feather, Radiant Arbiter's ability triggers whenever you cast a noncreature spell that targets only Feather and no other object or player.

If you cast a noncreature spell that has multiple targets, but it's targeting Feather, Radiant Arbiter with all of them, Feather's last ability will trigger. In that case, each of those copies will also only target one of the chosen creatures.

You control all the copies, and you choose the order the copies are put on the stack. The original spell will be on the stack beneath those copies and will resolve last.

The copies created by Feather, Radiant Arbiter's last ability are created on the stack, so they're not cast. Abilities that trigger when a player casts a spell (like Feather's own ability) won't trigger.

If the spell that's copied is modal (that is, it says "Choose one —" or the like), the copies will have the same mode. You can't choose different modes.

If the spell that's copied has an X whose value was determined as it was cast, the copies have the same value of X.

You can't choose to pay any alternative or additional costs for the copies. However, effects based on any alternative or additional costs that were paid for the original spell are copied as though those same costs were paid for the copy.

Any choices made when the spell resolves won't have been made yet when it's copied. Any such choices will be made separately when the copy resolves.

If a permanent spell is copied, the copies are put onto the battlefield as a token as the spell resolves rather than putting the copy of the spell onto the battlefield. The rules that apply to a permanent spell becoming a permanent apply to a copy of a spell becoming a token.

The token that a resolving copy of a permanent spell becomes isn't "created" and won't interact with abilities that care about tokens being created, such as that of Case of the Pilfered Proof.
1 Fiendish Duo
1 Frontier Warmonger
Frontier Warmonger

Creature — Human Warrior

4/4

Whenever one or more creatures attack one of your opponents or a planeswalker they control, those creatures gain menace until end of turn.
Creatures your opponents control attacking one of your opponents will cause Frontier Warmonger's ability to trigger.
1 Gisela, Blade of Goldnight
Gisela, Blade of Goldnight

Legendary Creature — Angel

5/5

Flying, first strike
If a source would deal damage to an opponent or a permanent an opponent controls, that source deals double that damage to that player or permanent instead.
If a source would deal damage to you or a permanent you control, prevent half that damage, rounded up.
Gisela doubles damage dealt to opponents and permanents your opponents control from any source, including sources controlled by those opponents.

If multiple replacement effects would modify how damage would be dealt, the player being dealt damage (or the controller of the permanent being dealt damage) chooses the order in which to apply those effects.

If damage dealt by a source you control is being divided or assigned among multiple permanents an opponent controls or among an opponent and one or more permanents they control simultaneously, divide the original amount and double the results. For example, if you attack with a 5/5 creature with trample and your opponent blocks with a 2/2 creature, you can assign 2 damage to the blocker and 3 damage to the defending player. These amounts are then doubled to 4 and 6 damage, respectively. You can't double the damage to 10 first and then assign 2 to the creature and 8 to the player.
1 Havoc Eater
1 Kazuul, Tyrant of the Cliffs
Kazuul, Tyrant of the Cliffs

Legendary Creature — Ogre Warrior

5/4

Whenever a creature an opponent controls attacks, if you're the defending player, create a 3/3 red Ogre creature token unless that creature's controller pays .
You're the defending player if a creature is attacking you, a planeswalker you control, or a battle you protect.

If you're the defending player, Kazuul's ability triggers once for each creature that attacks, not just once per combat. The attacking player chooses whether to pay or let you have an Ogre token each time one of those abilities resolves.

As the ability resolves, you can't put the Ogre token onto the battlefield without explicitly giving the attacking player the option to pay , even if the attacking player has forgotten about this ability.

The ability triggers and resolves during the declare attackers step. If you put an Ogre token onto the battlefield as a result, you may block with it during that combat phase.

If an attacking creature has a "Whenever this creature attacks" ability, that ability is put on the stack first, then Kazuul's ability is put on the stack. Although Kazuul's ability will resolve first, and potentially create an Ogre token, any target of the other ability will already have been chosen at this point, and thus could not have been the new Ogre token.

In a multiplayer game, the ability checks whether you're the defending player for each individual attacking creature. For example, if one creature attacks you and two creatures attack another player, Kazuul's ability triggers just once.
1 Keeper of the Accord
Keeper of the Accord

Creature — Human Soldier

3/4

At the beginning of each opponent's end step, if that player controls more creatures than you, create a 1/1 white Soldier creature token.
At the beginning of each opponent's end step, if that player controls more lands than you, you may search your library for a basic Plains card, put it onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle.
Both triggered abilities trigger at the same time. You may put them on the stack in either order.

If the opponent doesn't control more creatures than you as their end step begins, the first ability won't trigger. The same is true for lands and the second ability. Each of those abilities will check again when it tries to resolve. If the opponent no longer controls more creatures (or lands) than you, the ability won't resolve and will have no effect.
1 Loran of the Third Path
1 Nelly Borca, Impulsive Accuser
Nelly Borca, Impulsive Accuser

Legendary Creature — Human Detective

2/4

Vigilance
Whenever Nelly Borca attacks, suspect target creature. Then goad all suspected creatures. (A suspected creature has menace and can't block.)
Whenever one or more creatures an opponent controls deal combat damage to one or more of your opponents, you and the controller of those creatures each draw a card.
You can target a creature that's already suspected with Nelly Borca, Impulsive Accuser's second ability.

When an effect suspects a creature, it becomes suspected. It gains menace and "This creature can't block" for as long as it's suspected. It stays suspected until it leaves the battlefield or another effect causes it to no longer be suspected.

If a suspected creature loses all abilities, it will lose menace and "This creature can't block", but it won't stop being suspected.

Being suspected isn't a copiable value. If a permanent becomes a copy of a suspected creature, it won't be suspected.

If a creature is already suspected, suspecting it again won't have any effect.

There's no limit to the number of creatures that can be suspected simultaneously. Suspecting a new creature doesn't cause other creatures to stop being suspected.
1 Orzhov Advokist
Orzhov Advokist

Creature — Human Advisor

1/4

At the beginning of your upkeep, each player may put two +1/+1 counters on a creature they control. If a player does, creatures that player controls can't attack you or planeswalkers you control until your next turn.
While resolving Orzhov Advokist's ability, you choose a creature you control or choose not to put any counters on a creature, then each other player in turn order does the same. Each player will know the choices made by players who chose before them. Then simultaneously each player who chose a creature puts two +1/+1 counters on the creature they chose.

Orzhov Advokist's ability doesn't target the creatures that receive +1/+1 counters. Their controllers choose them as the ability resolves. Players can't take actions between making their choices and the +1/+1 counters being placed.

If a player chooses to accept Orzhov Advokist's gift, that player can't attack you or a planeswalker you control with any creatures during their next turn, even creatures that weren't on the battlefield as Orzhov Advokist's ability resolved.

Orzhov Advokist's effect keeps creatures from attacking you even if Orzhov Advokist leaves the battlefield, if the creature that received counters is no longer on the battlefield, or if an effect has moved those counters off of the creature that received them and put them onto another creature.
1 Otherworldly Escort
1 Selfless Squire
Selfless Squire

Creature — Human Soldier

1/1

Flash
When this creature enters, prevent all damage that would be dealt to you this turn.
Whenever damage that would be dealt to you is prevented, put that many +1/+1 counters on this creature.
Selfless Squire's first triggered ability prevents all damage that would be dealt to you this turn after the triggered ability resolves, even if Selfless Squire leaves the battlefield.

Selfless Squire's second triggered ability doesn't trigger only when damage is prevented by its first triggered ability's effect. Any effect that uses the word "prevent" will cause it to trigger.
1 Solemn Simulacrum
1 Stalking Leonin
Stalking Leonin

Creature — Cat Archer

3/3

When this creature enters, secretly choose an opponent.
Reveal the player you chose: Exile target creature that's attacking you if it's controlled by the chosen player. Activate only once.
There are several ways to secretly choose an opponent, including writing that player's name on a piece of paper that's kept with Stalking Leonin.

If you have multiple Stalking Leonins, you may choose a different opponent for each one. Be careful to keep track of which opponent is chosen for each Stalking Leonin.

If Stalking Leonin leaves the battlefield and returns, it's considered a new object. You may choose a new opponent and you may activate its last ability again.

If you didn't choose an opponent when Stalking Leonin entered the battlefield, you can't pay the cost to activate its last ability. This will usually happen because you gained control of another player's Stalking Leonin or because a creature already on the battlefield became a copy of Stalking Leonin.

If a creature is attacking a planeswalker you control, it's not attacking you. Stalking Leonin's last ability can't target it.
1 Steel Hellkite
Steel Hellkite

Artifact Creature — Dragon

5/5

Flying
: This creature gets +1/+0 until end of turn.
: Destroy each nonland permanent with mana value X whose controller was dealt combat damage by this creature this turn. Activate only once each turn.
Steel Hellkite's last ability destroys only nonland permanents whose mana value is exactly equal to X, and only those controlled by players who have been dealt combat damage by Steel Hellkite this turn.

It doesn't matter who controlled those permanents at the time Steel Hellkite dealt combat damage, or if those permanents were even on the battlefield at that time.

You may activate the last ability even if Steel Hellkite hasn't dealt combat damage to any players that turn. If you do, the ability won't do anything.

If Steel Hellkite's third ability is activated with X equal to 0, it will destroy each nonland permanent with mana value 0 the appropriate players control.

The mana value of a permanent is determined solely by the mana symbols printed in its upper right corner, unless it's copying something else (see below). The mana value is the total amount of mana in that cost, regardless of color. For example, a card with mana cost has mana value 5.

If a permanent is copying something else, its mana value is the mana value of whatever it's copying.

In all cases, ignore any alternative costs or additional costs (such as kicker) paid when the permanent was cast.

If the mana cost of a permanent includes , X is 0 for the purpose of determining its mana value.

If a nonland permanent has no mana symbols in its upper right corner (because it's a token that's not copying something else, for example), its mana value is 0.
1 Sun Titan
Sun Titan

Creature — Giant

6/6

Vigilance
Whenever this creature enters or attacks, you may return target permanent card with mana value 3 or less from your graveyard to the battlefield.
If a card in your graveyard has no mana symbols in its upper right corner (because it's a land card, for example), its mana value is 0.

If the mana cost of a card in your graveyard includes , X is considered to be 0.

A permanent card is an artifact, creature, enchantment, land, or planeswalker card.

The mana value of a card in your graveyard is determined solely by the mana symbols printed in its upper right corner. The mana value is the total amount of mana in that cost, regardless of color. For example, a card with mana cost has mana value 5.

Creatures can't attack you unless their controller pays for each creature they control that's attacking you.
Creatures may still attack planeswalkers you control without their controller paying a cost.
