Title: Multiple Double Strike
Post by: Bookmeister on March 01, 2013, 02:45:54 AM
Planning on playing Boros tomorrow and need some clarification. If I Soulbond {Silverblade Paladin} with {Ordruun Veteran} and then play {Boros Charm} would the {Ordruun Veteran} then get 6 strikes for 18 damage?

Edit: Or even 8 for 24?

It only counts as having 1 doublestrike. Creature deals firststrike and regular combat damage. Have a creature with multiple doublestrike is like having a creature with multiple flying, it doesn't fly higher than a creature with only one flying.

RESOLVED

If u have {Aurelia, the warleader} and a double striker technically it's 4 strikes plus all the other attackers

Well, "technically" it's doubled doublestrike....technically...
You'd double the first strike damage, than double regular combat damage.

You could try and add  {Gisela, Blade of Goldnight},and also {Aurelia, the Warleader} for very hard blows.Why not try and just Bloodrush your creature then go in for the kill?

Ok so in retrospect I have a similar double striking question. Say I equipped a creature with double strike with an  {Inquisitor's Flail}, then that would be double strike doubled, since they are two separately worded abilities, correct?

The flail is a totally separate ability. It doubles all damage that would be dealt, it does not give 2 separate damage steps like double strike does. Say the flail was equipped to a 2/2 with double strike. Normally the creature would deal 2 first strike damage. Due to the equipment, it deals 4 first strike damage instead. Then the creature with double strike would normally deal 2 regular combat damage, but again the flail doubles that, instead causing 4 regular combat damage.
