Cogwork Grinder

Artifact Creature — Construct

Draft Cogwork Grinder face up.

As you draft a card, you may remove it from the draft face down. (Those cards aren't in your card pool.)

Cogwork Grinder enters the battlefield with X +1/+1 counters on it, where X is the number of cards you removed from the draft with cards named Cogwork Grinder.

Rhadamanthus on Interaction between Pantlaza, Sun-Favored and …

5 months ago

If the other person needs to see rules, the most important rule is this one:

400.7. An object that moves from one zone to another becomes a new object with no memory of, or relation to, its previous existence. This rule has the following exceptions... [What follows is a list of 12 exceptions needed to make various types of zone-change specific effects to work in the expected way. None of the exceptions apply to this example.]

In your initial example, the Pantlaza that re-enters the battlefield from exile has nothing to do with the Pantlaza that left the battlefield earlier. The triggered ability on the new Pantlaza is a totally separate ability from the one on the old Pantlaza. If it was meant to track what's been done with the abilities from any Pantlaza then it would need to be specifically written to reference "sources named Pantlaza, Sun-Favored", kind of like Cogwork Grinder and other effects that need to track information about cards that can't always be distinguished from one another as distinct objects. This concept also covers the token copy interaction in your other example.

LordOfDispair on Conspiracy Draft

8 years ago

I did a 3x conspiracy 1x MM15 draft with 5 friends of mine. I got both Cogwork Grinder and Canal Dredger in the first couple packs, and with Brago's Favor it ended up as a 30/30 for 5. And that was in a very good red-white bombs and removal shell. Sadly the games were 2 FFAs and 1 best of 5, so I got ganged up on in one of the FFAs and ended up having to take second despite winning the other FFA and 3-0ing my best of five.

I'm assuming your drafting or cubing Conspiracy. Here are the Gatherer rulings for Worldknit:

5/29/2014 Your card pool includes every card you drafted or received after the draft because of Deal Broker. It doesnt include any cards removed from the draft with Cogwork Grinder.

Also note:

5/29/2014 Conspiracies arent legal for any sanctioned Constructed format, but may be included in other Limited formats, such as Cube Draft.
