Rulings

  1. Feb 4, 2023 · Wizards of the Coast

    After Glissa's Retriever has become blocked by a creature with power 3 or greater, reducing the blocking creature's power won't cause Glissa's Retriever to become unblocked.

  2. Feb 4, 2023 · Wizards of the Coast

    You don't choose a target for Glissa's Retriever's last ability at the time it triggers. Instead, a second "reflexive" ability triggers when you exile it. You choose a target for that ability as it goes on the stack. Each player may respond to this triggered ability as normal.

  3. Feb 4, 2023 · Wizards of the Coast

    A player with ten or more poison counters loses the game. This is a state-based action and doesn't use the stack. In other words, it happens immediately and players can't respond to it, just like a player losing the game due to having 0 or less life.

  4. Feb 4, 2023 · Wizards of the Coast

    Toxic doesn't change the amount of combat damage a creature deals. For example, if a 2/2 creature with toxic 1 deals combat damage to a player, that creature will deal 2 damage. The results of that damage are the player loses 2 life and gets a poison counter.

  5. Feb 4, 2023 · Wizards of the Coast

    Any other effects of that damage, such as life gain from lifelink, still apply.

  6. Feb 4, 2023 · Wizards of the Coast

    If a creature with toxic deals combat damage to a creature or planeswalker, or if it deals noncombat damage, toxic has no effect and no player gets poison counters.

  7. Feb 4, 2023 · Wizards of the Coast

    Damage dealt by a creature with toxic grants the same number of counters regardless of how much damage is dealt. Notably, if a replacement effect modifies the damage in some way (such as that of Gratuitous Violence), the number of counters given remains unchanged.

  8. Feb 4, 2023 · Wizards of the Coast

    Conversely, replacement effects that apply to the number of counters put on a player can modify the counters placed this way. For example, Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider's last two abilities can apply to counters placed this way.

  9. Feb 4, 2023 · Wizards of the Coast

    Multiple instances of toxic are cumulative. For example, if a creature has toxic 2 and gains toxic 1 due to another effect, combat damage that creature deals to a player will cause that player to get 3 poison counters.
