minus-squaremeant2live218@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·4 months agoThis seems fun in Commander. Every lizard essentially comes in with 3 +1/+1 counters on them, as long as everyone’s alive and doesn’t prevent damage.
minus-squareAndrew@mtgzone.comMlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·4 months agoI might be reading it wrong but I think the first one enters with one +1/+1 counter b/c Gev’s ability targets an opponent (not each opponent). The second one would be 2 counters assuming you hit a different opponent, etc.
minus-squaremeant2live218@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·4 months agoOh, you got it right. I think between reading and typing I swapped it to “each opponent” instead of “target opponent” in my head.
