Title: Mentor/honor pure?
Post by: Drbusta50 on January 16, 2012, 08:26:46 PM
If I have {mentor of the meek} on the battlefield and {honor of the pure} and I play a {elite Inquisitor} do I get to draw a card due to mentor's ability or is the elite a 3/3 and I can't use the ability

I believe w had a post about this earlier.. But the honor makes inquisitor a 3/3 before mentor looks at the power of inquisitor.. So unfortunately mentor's ability doesn't work :(

Ummmm....dont quote me on this but i believe it does in fact work. The card comes in at a 2/2 THEN becomes 3/3 so i do believe you may use his ability. Not quite sure on that though :/

Comp Rules:
611.3c Continuous effects that modify characteristics of permanents do so simultaneously with the permanent entering the battlefield. They don't wait until the permanent is on the battlefield and then change it. Because such effects apply as the permanent enters the battlefield, they are applied before determining whether the permanent will cause an ability to trigger when it enters the battlefield.

Example: A permanent with the static ability "All white creatures get +1/+1" is on the battlefield. A creature spell that would normally create a 1/1 white creature instead creates a 2/2 white creature. The creature doesn't enter the battlefield as 1/1 and then change to 2/2.

Yea, I learned that one the hard way, and have now removed all my mentor of the Meeks from my deck :-(
