Title: Gisela and inquisitors flail
Post by: 5/9 Turtle on April 21, 2013, 10:27:58 AM
If I have  {Gisela, Blade of Goldnight} and equip  {Inquisitor's Flail} to it does it deal 4x the damage or just 2x

4X. Both say double damage don't they?

And you can't damage enchantments and lands??!!? Her text says "permanent"

I guess they didn't want to say creatures and planes walkers to save space. That must be it

She would deal four times her damage (two, multiplied by two), because she has two effects that double damage.

The damage abilities are replacement effects, which stack. It's similar to {Rhox Faithmender}. Also, you can find in the rulings of {Inquisitor's Flail} that equipping two of them will multiply damage by four.

RESOLVED

Awesome thanks, I'm thinking that to keep a creature from dying to make it indestructible

But she decreases damage taken by half, so she would cancel out the negative effect of the flail

and boost his power to 5. 20 damage on a single turn

But if someone blocks it its pretty much dead, and with both out and power of 5 that would be 40 in one turn, he has double strike

Yeah I already made that deck it's paired with a crap ton of enchantments and  {Sphere of Safety}

Post by: Birdbrain on April 21, 2013, 07:45:41 PM
No. I was already factoring double strike plus the flail

5X4=20

They say great minds think alike, I know both of us have great minds to be able play magic, my great mind must have failed for a couple of minute

Everyone has the potential to have a great mind. Also, great minds think for themselves?

That is true

How would he deal 20 dmg with one swing? I just don't see the math adding up there. Even with the flail and gisela
Title: Re: Gisela and inquisitors flail
Post by: 5/9 Turtle on April 24, 2013, 06:49:17 AM
That's if you get his power up to 5
