Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

[Glitch]

This thread is intended for the tutorials section of the forum.

The premise is simple, if you have a question, and no idea where it belongs, post it here.  We'll be sure to answer it for you.

Great idea Gl1tch, it's nice to have a thread where one can just ask anything without logging into chat.

Let's start with something simple:
I have 96 HP left.
Opponent has 2 HP left, with nothing on the field.
I attack with a Vampire Dagger, do I EM?

[Kamietsu]

I believe you should. Even though the opponent doesn't have the full amount to take, it will still heal you for that much. And since it's simultaneous, it should give you EM. I could be wrong.

Yes, you get an EM; I tested it in Trainer.

You end up doing enough damage to send your opponent to negative HP (note that we can also send the opponent's HP to the negatives with a TU'ed Voodoo Doll). Therefore, you receive the full amount of vampiric healing.

Here's my "simple question"

Both my opponent and I are at 1 health.  He has a voodoo doll on the field.  I use unstable gas.

Who wins?

[icecoldbro]

You, from what I remember Spell is activated before Creature abilities, therefore you win.

K then in a revision of that question, what if my opponent and I both have a voodoo doll, my opponent has 21 hp and I have 1 hp. Who wins?

I really don't want to test this...
Some else answer.
I think by principle still you, as your creature effects are counter first, then again i might be wrong, answer is in programing.

[EvaRia]

I think in PvP you both win.
In PvE you win.

I could be wrong though.

Because momentum is an active skill, while adrenaline is not.

Question: What is the order that the AI will destroy permanents?

On a side note, I *think* someone was trying to test this situation, but I'm not sure if anyone ever actually done that, so here it is, from a real game:



Winner is: Me. Surprisingly... I thought UG damage would be calculated first.
