Title: Two planeswalker questions:
Post by: Coffee Vampire on March 04, 2012, 12:49:53 PM
Hello, I have two questions about planeswalkers:

1) If I mimic a planeswalker while it is a  creature, does it lose its abilities when I put out a copy of that planeswalker by paying (3) and tapping {Mimic Vat}?

2) If I want to deal damage to a planeswalker that my opponent controls, do I say that I am attacking him, then after any damage goes through, I say to deal it to a planeswalker instead, or do I say first that I am attacking the planeswalker?

The token the Vat creates will be an exact copy of the Planeswalker.

No, that's how it works for direct damage. You divide your attacking creatures by who they are attacking.
