Can I Strionic Resonator last mode of Demonic Pact?

Asked by Iceygod 8 years ago

If the last ability on Demonic Pact and use Strionic Resonator to target my opponent? Ultimately making them lose the game.

No, simply because Demonic Pact never says "target player loses the game". You would just be copying the triggered ability and would lose the game one trigger before you would...you know...lose the game.

@JWiley129 So the "You can choose new targets for this copy" on Strionic Resonator only works for targeting abilities?

@Iceygod: Things only target if they say target (also, Aura spells on the stack and using an Equipment's equip cost). If it doesn't use the word "target", and isn't one of those other things, then it doesn't target and so you cannot choose new targets for it. It will just have the same effect as the original ability.

The word "you" in an object's text always refers to that object's controller; it does not target anything. You can't choose a new target for it simply because it never had any targets in the first place.
