Title: Polymorphous rush + legendary
Post by: redwolv on July 14, 2014, 01:54:06 PM
Would using  {Polymorphous Rush} on a legendary creature like  {Brimaz, King of Oreskos} as the target to clone cause the clones to die as you can only have one of each legendary at a time,
If yes
Then if used on  {Daxos of Meletis} when you also have 2 other also about to deal damage to the player, would all three "daxos" would prock his effect 3 times before they kill each other off?

No, as polymorphous rush resolves:

All creatures become brimaz:

State based action checks happen before damage step

Then you would have to sacrifice each extra legend

Wouldn't recommend you do this :P

Ok then, thank you.
I am trying to come up with a standard daxos deck and am looking for new tricky combos, kinda sad this won't work, would have been cool to sack some trash cards to proc his effect more then once a turn. Trying to stay away from rtr block as it goes out soon and i don't have many of them.

commonly used for MMORPGs

...but isn't it technically not a random occurence if it goes off 100% of the time the trigger condition is met?
