Feasting Hobbit
From Tales of Middle-earth Commander set
Feasting Hobbit
Creature — Halfling Citizen
2/2
Devour Food 3 (As this creature enters, you may sacrifice any number of Foods. It enters with three times that many +1/+1 counters on it.)
Creatures with power less than this creature's power can't block it.
Rulings
- Whatever you do, don't eat the delicious cards.
- If an effect refers to a Food, it means any Food artifact, not just a Food artifact token. For example, you can sacrifice Tough Cookie (an Artifact Creature — Food Golem) to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability (an ability with "Sacrifice a Food" in its cost).
- Food is an artifact type. Even though it appears on some creatures, it's never a creature type.
- You can't sacrifice a Food to pay multiple costs. For example, you can't sacrifice a Food token to activate its own ability and also to activate Maraleaf Rider's ability.
- Devour Food is a variant of the devour ability. It allows you to sacrifice Foods rather than creatures, but otherwise functions identically to devour.
- You may choose not to sacrifice any Foods for the devour Food ability.
- If you cast this spell, you choose how many and which Foods to devour as part of the resolution of the spell. (It can't be countered at that point.)
- The comparison of power is done only when blockers are declared. Decreasing the power of a creature blocking Feasting Hobbit or increasing the power of Feasting Hobbit after this point won't cause Feasting Hobbit to become unblocked.
